Can We Trust Kemi? Fri Sep 05, 2025 09:00 | Paul Homewood
Can we trust Kemi to dump Net Zero and fire up the North Sea drills? With a highly organised opposition among her own MPs, lavishly funded by the Green Blob, Paul Homewood is doubtful.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4I forgot to mention its free in - who charges for a wake? And to lead us in our mourning, will will have two of the best comedians in Ireland - Gordon Rochford and Abie Philbin Bowman.
Is this a fitting response to the turkeys voting for a Merry Axemass?
Surely a good sleep would be more appropriate?That way we might even get into 'guvirmint', of the hoors by the hoors for the hoors.
"So, let's drink ourselves stupid.."
Clearly we're already stupid!!
Yes, I think, in general, wakes are a good thing, and we had a good one last Friday. It's true that the 26 county statelet never really had sovereignty, and, I for one, would not mourn it's demise. What we were really mourning is the passing of any sense of national pride and honour from the psyche of the majority of Irish people. As far as they are concerned, Ireland is merely another commodity to be sold and resold, for the best price going. "Selling Ireland," is their only goal.
But, a wake is a good thing, as it allows us to express our emotions, and gives us the courage to pick up the pieces and start again. Most important of all, it let's us know that we are not alone.
