This "throwing people to the lions" of social media circus will mean semi state and state funded organisations will struggle to attract any talent. We are now seeing good people being punished horrifically for what are entirely legal activities (Breege owned the house in Spain which she had been travelling to for decades)... The reality is the FG and FF folk are falling on their swords for minor infractions. Yet other parties still have questions to ask around murder, child abuse, criminal activity & laundering. And there are zero consequences. I've no doubt this will be like the Trump/Biden debate with the usual crew throwing about whataboutery like the above when it's clear there are consequences for FG/FF , not so I for one other party who follow the Trump playbook.

Doesn’t mean you have to accept a political party that doesn’t recognise the legitimacy of the country, and glorifies fat psychopaths like Storey , sticking their claws into our democracy.

Due to be released in April 1990, Ellis was served with a warrant for his extradition to Britain where it was alleged he conspired with three other men to cause explosions in Britain between 1981 and 1983. In October 1990 he went on hunger strike, protesting his extradition to the UK. The strike lasted 37 days during which time he lost over two stone and was barely able to walk. He was eventually acquitted of the charges at a court in London and went on to become a politician.

What you and Sinn Fein want is a pretendy unreality where not only do all the criminal scum get away with murder but that the rest of is cant mention it or remind everyone what calibre of subhuman thug makes up the core of Sinn The likes of Dessie Ellis, living in a free house provided by the state decided to involve himself by making bombs to kill people he had never met. That makes him a vile person and any decent person should call him out as the wretched coward and killer he is at every opportunity
