    Thanks for the idea, this will be the first EU/local (can't really be bothered with the latter) elections that I'll vote in.

    As an aside, I wonder why Ben of the Clan Giolla Rua (sounds kinda like Game of Thrones mixed with Gaelic history, don't you think?) is going for the European Parliament anyway.

    € I'd imagine.

    Would it be possible to use tactical voting to ensure he finishes behind Ben Gilroy, I wonder.....

    Was that what that "judgement day" ****e they were running on the ads for the **** Dependant was?

    I presumed the fire in the background was the SF meps supposedly running riot and eating babies, but yes, could be that.

    TV ad for the indo article about the elections. You could always e-mail Denis "no crimninal convictions" O'Brien about it and ask for clarification. Be careful though, I hear he can unholster and fire off a solictors letter in under a second.

    It's like he is incapable of having a thought that isn't related to religion.

    I mean, this is his big soundbyte close to the elections that's supposed to get us to vote for him?

    "Let's take a street that has a name and give it a different name".

    I've a better idea, how about we name a street in each county after the people that were brave enough to fight the Vatican when it came to the sex abuse cases it covered up for decades.

    Naming streets after a man who covered up sex abuse for decades is the ultimate insult to all the victims! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Now thats something i can support, infact I'd support starting a lobby group to get a street named after her.

    Also I'd support the naming of a street (ideally in Clonmel) after this clip from Michael O' Brien the former mayor of Clonmel a few years back.

    Christ. I never saw that before. Someone needs to name a street after that fella right enough, and send the apologists like Ronan running down it in a state of terror :mad::mad::mad: I haven't the words to call that Mullen wan on his ignorance and might get modded for even saying that above but....christ. Breathe Obliq, breathe....

    A climb for life sounds exceptionally dreary. Why wouldn't God just stop the abortions like, rather than getting people to climb a random mountain. What's a climb for life going to achieve?

    Oh and if fools go unprepared it'll waste the time of emergency services, thats the problem with attracting non hill walkers to walk a hill once or maybe twice a year

    My house is on the flight path from Croagh Patrick to Mayo General Hospital. Rescue 118 is practically a daily sight as it commutes to and fro.

    "A significant minority of voters now feel politically homeless Many Irish voters are socially conservative, but are not particularly right-wing economically. Where is the party that represents them?"

    so asks journalist and payout recipient Breda O'Brien. Read the full article for the laughs she wrings from this seemingly dry subject.

    Yer man Nugent is far too civil. We need some shaven headed scarred tattooed deviant with a hook for a hand as Godless Heathen in Chief.
