2. Comment on The SDLP should decide which direction to jump
   on 18 February 2010 at 12:31 am

   Either our mandate is fully respected or we should pull the plug and go into oppposition.
   We should only participate as equals ,if the DUP & SF dont treat our voters with the same respect that they treat their own,we are either equal or we are not.

   Treat their voters with respect.

   Are you nuts?

3. Comment on Facebook shuts down anti-Roma page
   on 16 February 2010 at 4:16 am

   I haven’t seen the Facebook page referred to, but as I understand it, the issue that Conall is raising is not immigration but racist propaganda on Facebook.

   Having said that, it would appear to me that the major political parties in Ireland and England have failed miserably to articulate their immigration policies to their respective citizens. In England, the BNP have been able to exploit this weakness to their advantage.

   In Ireland, north and south, the racists have not yet found a political vehicle to articulate their hate – mongering at the electoral level. Irish political parties need to be careful that they do not provide such a vehicle, by their failure to formulate and articulate an immigration policy that is understood and supported by their citizens.

   Mick, what say you open a thread on this issue like the Lisbon Treaty discussions? I am sure Conall would have lots to say on the subject.

   Do not have the money, or fund-raising ability to compete with Sinn Féin, and when Fianna Fáil get organized in the six counties.

   End of story.

6. Comment on “The result of this woeful leadership is that we have let the DUP off the hook!”

   The antics of Sir Reg reminds me of that quip from Groucho Marx;

   Those are my principles, and if you don’t like them… well, I have others.

   We know these paramilitary types tend to be morons, but not being able to tell the difference between a knee and a shoulder is surely a new low !!

10. Comment on Child abuse: the story no one wants to think about…
    on 18 January 2010 at 8:45 pm

    Just checked the Sinn Fein website. Briege Meehan is still listed there as a Sinn Fein councillor. Don’t tell me it takes the Sinn Fein webmaster over a year to update the status of the party’s representatives.

    Talk about sloppy work.
