There?s no food getting in so people are starving,? surgeon Tom Potokar says
British doctors working in Gaza have described the territory as a ?slaughterhouse,? where the patients they are treating are severely malnourished.
Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.
Dr. Tom Potokar, a plastic surgeon specializing in burn injuries, has worked in Gaza 16 times but said this mission had revealed a level of destruction far greater than his last visit in 2023,
It is time to talk about the Out of Control Immigration. Mon Mar 31, 2025 22:12 | imc
For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Jump To Comment: 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1Who proof reads this ? One minute we are told Michael Collins would 'still' be a card carrying member of Fine Gael were he still alive but in the next story readers are advised he was dead before Fine Gael was founded. Some confusion surely.
Collins is nonetheless claimed by YFG as one of their own, though topping Henry Wilson seems to be frowned upon. To the best of my knowledge Collins saw the execution of Wilson as being totally justified and as far as I am aware never changed his position. Hard to imagine therefore Collins being seen as fit to serve in Government if still alive . Just as well then FG and 'Interesting Enda' have no chance of seizing power as otherwise YFG might have to dump the Collins worship act.
The latest edition of the Informer is out!
“This month, 21st January in fact, represents the 86th Anniversary of the inaugural meeting of Dáil Eireann. It took place in the Mansion House shielded from an outside world in upheaval and trauma as the birth pains of a growing emerging new state began. It is historic fact that the true birth date of Irish democracy, as we know and love it today, can be traced to this date and this event, the realisation of Arthur Griffith’s policy of abstaining from Westminster and having a democratic Irish parliament, and not the bloody episode of 1916 or even that tragic events at Soloheadbeg that same Tuesday 21st January 1920, no matter how romanticised or even mythological these have become."
Where do these people come from? Are they ignorant of the dymamic of Irish History? King Arthur Griffith (he of the Dual Monarchy) and his abstentionist policies was irrelevant prior to 1916. The Sinn Fein that won the seats in 1918 was a completely new party formed through a series of fusions. There wouldnt have been any First Dail to meet in 1919 if it hadnt been for the events of 1916. It looks as if the junior Blueshirts now want to wash their hands of the War of Independence as well.
Any romance or mythology here is coming from FG.
/QUOTE:
YFG Autonomy
By Matthew Bruton
Much has been made of our autonomy and how great we are to have it while others do not. But it is my belief that it is in fact doing more harm than good and we should in fact try to change it.
...
Most people outside Fine Gael do not see a difference between Young Fine Gael and the senior party, especially the older generation. And so the image that we give off reflects badly on the senior party, if it offends large sections of society.
We have to realise that politics is about all aspects and sections of society.

Rumour on the street says that Rosanna Flynn from Residents Against Racism will soon be giving a speech to Young FG.
If true, perhaps this is a good sign for YFG's 'autonomy'
inside scoop
can only be explained by the hard times FG have had in recent years.
however with the human dynamo Enda in charge things can only get better. roll on the Commonwealth.

no harm to Lucinda but she looks a bit old to still be in YFG. Can't help but imagine her dream of a trip to Iraq would involve flying a jet and disposing of a few nasties. If the somewhat optimistic vision of electoral progress comes true she may in coalition with Mc Dowell and the PDs get the chance to get stuck into a few baddies up near the artificial entity which is the border.
yfg looking for eyeballs on indymedia the most downright despicable anarcho-pinko terraist website on the irish branch of the internets?
irony is dead certainly and the title of the fg publication just rubs the point in on top of the ashes between the eyes(balls).
