The only people that are turning it into a circus are those who just can't accept that it's just a nice gesture.
Hahahahaha
The only ones talking about the letter are a few unionists and on here. Nobody cares, she congratulated her, big deal
Who? 😂
Its not a zero sum game here you know
'Loyalist's' would be roundly condemned across the water for that
They're like soccer hooligans
Scum
That would be a unanimous view here
Michelle O'Neill sending out a similar sentiment about The Queen as say Nicola Sturgeon would not
Mo'N nuanced hers not to offend Republicans
It'll be nice when the day comes that's not necessary
Shows how bad SF are that they can't even send a letter without it turning into a circus.
Trying to say Michelle O'Neill is one of the most high profile people on this island, now that is baffling statement. Delusion of grandeur.
You know Exactly what I mean
But you're trying to avoid acknowledging it
Her letter was very very carefully worded not to offend or put out Republicans
Theres nothing wrong with that
You don't word every letter or card so as not to offend someone
Don't be telling me that as its nonsense
Theres no need to avoid what is obvious here at all
Its just an observation
So videos doing the rounds of orange order singing about the murder of Michaela MacAreavey on the queen's jubilee while SF congratulates the queen and the usual anti SF crowd in here criticise SF doing this. No posts of this video of course by those so interested in northern affairs. You'd have to question Neale Richmond courting the orange order now given how absolutely abhorrent they are.
Considering she said she wrote the letter herself id be inclined to believe her over some random Internet poster
Well, I would guess that Michelle would have her letters carefully worded for her.
Any letter I send would be carefully worded, be it a congratulations letter or a get well soon letter.
Im sure Michelle as one of the most high profile people on our island, carefully words all her letters
Usually congratulations letters like that don't need to be carefully worded...
Usually when people send letters they word them carefully
I'm agnostic on the matter
She also put it up on Twitter. Just appreciate it's a nice gesture for christ sake.
Michelle O'Neil as incoming first minister (when the DUP get round to it) had no choice but to send that letter
Its very very carefully worded
About time that Sinn Fein acknowledged all the help that was required to get them to see sense and abandon the PIRA terrorist campaign.
It is not like the "All lives matter" trope, it is more like the "White Lives Matter" type response, but the equivalent is "Good Republican Lives Matter". Too blinkered to see that by far the biggest problem in Irish politics with online abuse comes from one party.
Apart from a few unionist voices unhappy on twitter saying it was nothing more than a PR stunt etc your the first ive seen reference it other than in the newspapers
SF MoN writes to her Majesty QEII
Wont make the online bot army happy, that's for sure.
This is like the 'All lives matter' trope.
"ALL" parties.... yea go start a thread on it so, this is the SF thread..
This is the Sinn Fein thread
The information is all available on the internet, the multiple statements from SF saying they have problems etc. Check it out....
All parties have issues with party supporters trolling.
Id be behind a full investigation into all partys to see who was upto what otherwise its a witch hunt against 1 party
A campaign which started in 2015 and has not stopped. I couldn't give a f**k if SF had 2 million online supporters if they could actually act decently on the web. The problem is they seem to have a clear strategy online and this has been going on for years.
How many people are to be subjected to online abuse before they will stop this campaign?
It is fairly clear that the 2015 campaign has had a real effect. Online discussion of political issues has become completely poisoned, accusations of using victims, name-calling and labelling, etc. have all become commonplace and were distinct parts of the online SF handbook at the time.
2015 links?
Post 2018 links only or what happened does not count, well it didn't when it was mentioned a certain party discussed setting up troll accounts in 2018 but we were told too long ago irrelevant.
Its hard to keep up with what we can discuss
One gave a tip off to a pal over a contract. The other ordered contracts..
Il let you work that out yourself as whatever i say you will try twist anyway
The former leader of Sinn Fein has been under criminal investigation for decades, so what's your point?
One of the leaders of the partys in Govt has been under criminal investigation for over a year now, im sure we will be fine with SF in charge
you should fear for more than that if a semi criminal organization like sf gets in so should we all
