An Excess of Pity: Why We Fail to Deport Those Whom We Should Deport Tue Apr 29, 2025 15:00 | Dr David McGrogan
Why do we fail to deport those whom we should deport? It's due in the end, says Dr David McGrogan, to an excess of pity. We are pitying ourselves into disorder and social decay. We need to be willing not to be nice.

Why Labour Might Be About to Lose the Runcorn By-Election: Because it Hates its Own Voters Tue Apr 29, 2025 07:00 | Steven Tucker
Reform is favourite to win the Runcorn and Helsby by-election, overturning Labour's 14,700 majority. Why? It might have something to do with having the nation's third-highest number of asylum seekers, says Steven Tucker.

Perhaps our deceptive friend means the EU constitution? A few more countries voted on that one (Ireland never got a chance)...
And comparing the trade situation of Ireland and a country which is subject to sanctions? what on earth is that about?
Sarkozy Comes To Dublin - Tyranny On The Street
Footage recorded the Day Sarkozy came to Dublin, people, Gardai and politicians
The strong Gardai presence can be clearly seen, always quick to say you don't have a right to do this and you don't have a right to do that but they are the ones acting unlawfully.

I notice one of the posts at the above French web site address (part of Tue Jul 29, 2008 10:16 post) states:
"It (the no vote for Lisbon Treaty) arrived like a courted woman says no; so, why is it is necessary to insist?"
"A good gentleman understands these things well (but not our Mr Sarkozy).
"If one insists, one generates unwanted results."
Well said!!
You are our hope because you are few, so you can speak together, and contact yourselves, without media.
In France, we have propaganda and it works quite enough in part of people that doesn't imagine that communication is a whole (or whore ) job.
Examples of Propaganda we have, actually, in France :
TV messages, telling best about actual politique of purchasing power.
People going to meet us, on beach, to sing the praises of Sarkozy'politique. (I have heard)
Call "modernism" what is from Middle Ages. ... etc...
does one honestly think that the the political establishment will have a rerun of Lisbon coming up to euro elections 2009.
given the fact that this year there will be 440million in public cutbacks.
with 1.5 billion in cut backs next year.
5o% of labour voters opposed the referendum
that in December the Czech government will host eu presidency
message is loud and clear Lisbon is dead.
It was great to see the Tara activists there with all the other anti Lisbon groups. I sometimes think that the Tara activists are the real patriots in this country when it comes to protecting our identity and heritage. The EU will eventually want to destroy any symbols such as Tara if they are to go for full EU "integration" in the not too distant future.
Fair Play to all of you. Please God both he and the World Media got the message.
A couple of snaps of banners hung along the M1 leading from Dublin airport into the city. Hopefully Sarkozy got the message.

Comment? c'est un scandale!
The IFA - the largest contingent - did NOT turn out to protest about the Lisbon treaty. They were there to SUPPORT Sarkozy in his oppositon to the Mandelson line at the WTO talks. In fact Sarkozy clapped in support of Padraig Walsh of the IFA at the reception when he spoke against the WTO. The farmers, as usual, are primarily interested in their own well being.
