Is he saying that the Irish people should be executed if they protest? I really can't understand that thick accent... It comes across as though he's threatening protestors

He said the Taoiseach had called him a kidnapper, the Tánaiste dubbed him a ringleader and now “Fine Gael backbenchers are calling me an Isis militant”. The Dublin South West TD described the comments as “hysterical overreaction”, which were offensive to the victims of Isis. Islamic State, or Isis, is an extremist, jihadist rebel group that has taken control of territory in Iraq and Syria with a view to creating an Islamic caliphate. It has been criticised for its brutality and has published a number of videos online of Western hostages being beheaded."

It's emblematic of just how out of touch and misinformed these representatives of the people are. It's like watching a moron trying to make a rabble rousing sabre rattling speech while relying on misinformation and rumour while relying on tenuous links to anything topical to appear au fait with the world around them. This guy is a cretin who in an attempt to appear aware of the issues of the day has in fact proven himself to be just the opposite. Ignoring the parasitic Dublin comments, which are just attempts at dividing the country to suppress unity in protests etc, this guy has essentially undermined the crimes of Isis as being tantamount to a hag getting hit with a water bomb. Jesus wept, this is a public representative for the Irish people.

If this mans ideas rule this country than god save Ireland because he would cause a revolution, probably a very bloody one. He's the type of reason I'm confident we (Sinn fein) can form the next government.

For such a tiny country and such a tiny economy to be having these urban / rural divides is gas. Rural people seem to think cities are largely populated by welfare recipients whilst urbanites seem to not realize the importance of agriculture, fishing, mining etc to the Irish economy or that so many statistics of things like where taxes are raised have all to do with the office their paid from and not where the work is actually carried out.

On a nationwide basis IT is the only industry largely based in urban areas (though i believe its the biggest) that would be one of our main exporters. Do realize though that there's f all of that owned by anyone in the Irish economy which is why the agri / food sector is far more important then you might think. I really dont see the need to be a flag waving urbanite / country person. Ireland is a lot smaller and less important then most of us would like to believe. I mean Dublin is by far the biggest city with more then twice the population of county Cork but in European terms its still not really a major city. Somewhere like Berlin is about the same size in population terms as Ireland.
