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.

Gas is ? or should be ? dirt cheap because it's abundant and easy to extract, store and transport. Only politicians infected with the neo-Malthusian green mind virus make energy expensive, says Ben Pile.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3The man holding the office of Tanaiste, the freedom of the press, the smallest % of the vote
and the 'Triple arm of Good Governance' is emboldened by the power of his office.
If Bertie goes down , the caretaker will be the Taniaste- not Minister Cowen.
Michael Mc Dowell will therefore control the state.
If he continues as he is, with a weakened Taoiseach , he is running the state.
Bertie , if he goes down will have to take Micheal with him.
= There has to be an election.
Tanaiste Mc Dowell has'compromised' himself enough- compromised is the new watchword.
He is at the Ploughing championships.
Everybody has to go to the ploughing championships.
Thats where you meet the men who really run the state-the I.F.A.!
Doubt that they will abandon Bertie for the McDowellites though-whatever about Enda getting a few first preferences..
Why won't the ex PD TD Geraldine Kennedy & possibly the first madam editor of the "Irish Times" to completely thrash the noble legacy of d. Gagesby reveal her sources?
the photo reminds us of the night of june 23rd 2006 when Harney & Mc Dowell dined together at the Unicorn Restaurant in Dublin. The photo wasn't taken by paparatzi, the normal bog standard press were there. Harney had just done her best to hold onto the leadership of the PD's as Ahern was doing his best to manage "a controlled implosion" ahead of the next election. How much a role is Geraldine Kennedy playing in that "controlled implosion" & how much & how little does it co-incide with our agenda of regime change , by which of course is not just meant a new cabinet, government, taoiseach, tainaiste -
nope. We want it all to change.
@ least we're consistent.
At last Big swinging Mickey almost has his day. "Mr Tainaste" to you.
