Relaxation of Restrictions, Part IX *Read OP For Mod Warnings*

Very disappointed by the parties we have both in government and in opposition. Not one of them have stood up for the self employed and/or relatively risk free activities like golf/tennis.

They simply outsourced responsibility for running the country to a small group of people who's remit was solely covid related with no other factors taken into account, we shouldn't be blaming NPHET as they are only doing the job they were told to do by government.

There's not a chance I will be voting FG, FF, Greens or SF(Who were as silent as they could be on this issue). I've come to realise there is probably no point voting in general elections because as we can see they all sing from the same hymn sheet. In saying that I'll probably just vote independentents just because people fought to allow us to vote etc.

Anyway, I, as a relatively young lad, look forward to being saddled with extra taxes for years to come in order to pay for the governments incompetentence over the past 12+ months.

Thankfully alot of people are starting to wake up to how ridiculous this all is...some nonsense talk of maintaining restrictions into the summer etc. Along with zero covid bulls by Tom Ryan. All bulls**t, once the vulnerable are vaccinated its time to open up, if anyone has a problem they are free to hide under their table at home!

Anyway they are my thoughts thank you and goodnight

If you are relatively young do yourself a big favour.
Get the hell out of this dump ASAP

Ireland is akin to the titanic.
We hit the iceberg , the decks band is still playing atm but they’re starting to play out of tune.
The captain of the ship is as drunk as a skunk and abdicating responsibility to his underlings. He and his officers have a life boat booked though. They’ll be safe and don’t care about the passengers under their “protection”

Awaiting the tilt (IMF)
Hold tight

You can have all the qualifications in the world and have all the data at your disposal but, they're no substitute for common sense...

Philip Nolan said last week, "Over the last week or so, there are signs that people are mixing and socialising more. This is very concerning. We can't let our guard down"

That may have something to do with the fact you opened the schools recently, you absolute prat!

Ah yes. And the increase in cases between 5 and 12 year olds and due to household transmission and not picking it up in the reopened schools. Only way they can categorically state that us if they test every other child in the class/school and they are negative. These clowns are doing my head in. As for that other moron chastising people for visiting their dying family member in hospital, that is just vile. Makes me sick they would even stoop that low.

If this age group had been abroad recently, do you think they’d still be saying ‘family setting’ or would they be blaming travel?!!

The deception, lies and incompetence are just staggering.

The propaganda machine in full flow this morning. Garda will be on all artery roads into the city, checking public transport and people in the city centre.

The government must be really worried there may be bigger numbers at the protests and want it quashed. Another great use of state resources.

Or they just don't want the usual scum acting like the violent cretins they are injuring people like happened last time in Dublin.

If they put a fraction of those resources into cleaning up the city centre on a regular basis it would be the better for it.

Getting worse than North Korea. Tyranny at work. Basically Myanmar. Ireland is a police state. Fascists. People wake up. Vaccines are poison.

Am I doing it right?

If, by doing it right, you mean talking shïtê then you've absolutely nailed it.

But sure, it's grand, it's people "hiding" behind their constitutional rights again. Bloody neck of them wanting to protest a government that hasn't a scooby what they are doing.

Violent cretins? Did you see the videos of the Dutch police earlier?

No. How it is relevant to my post, I have no idea.

You and your friends have been very quiet about what <<MOD SNIP>> said. Anything to add to that?

No idea who <<MOD SNIP>> is.

It must be great seeing only what you want to see.

You're right, I should have everything you have seen ready to go first thing in the morning. So you can question me about it. :rolleyes:

Unfortunately the every day violent scumbags and criminals don't telegraph their scummary like the special breed of ne'er-do-well's that showed up at the last one in Dublin.

You must be joking me. It's the same areas every day in the city that attracts the scum. The boardwalk, liberty hall, middle abbey street and that's just for starters. Drug dealing, fighting, muggings, all happen around there on a daily basis. They don't need to put it on social media because everyone knows where they'll be.

It's still easier catch the special scum that give an exact time and place.

But we must forgive the guards for trying to insure more of their members don't get injured like last time.

The whole NPHET thing needs to die. It’s causing more harm than good now.
It’s gone to the stage now that they’ll use anything to try and create the fear factor.

NPHETs plan all along was to control the people by fear.

Bad news for them though is that initial fear of the unknown has long since disappeared.
People can now see for themselves the risk and high risk categories.

The shows over but for some reason NPHET don’t want to let go.

Once we heard the use of a term worry meter from supposed experts to measure how worried people were they lost any little credibility they had.

Medical experts and advisors in any other country throughout the globe using these tactics or made up metrics.......

Worry meter off into the sunset for NPHET is what we need and fast fast fast ..

The government created a monster in NPHET

A monster that now has control of the nations ability to sustain itself

Last time we blamed the bankers and credit issues, this time it’s on NPHET
