We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

Thank you Karen for your brave actions and strong show of resistance. It has opened up avenues for the rest of us to speak and act and put pressure on the illegal acts of the Irish Govt.

Karen, her Catholic Worker comrades and Mary Kelly can't be thanked enough for sacrificing their liberty and making a stand that most of us aren't able to.

Their actions against this war - in addition to being effective - have been truly inspiring.

Do the Catholic Worker group actually support the catholic church?

Do they believe in transubstanciation and other similar hocus pocus peddled by the church?

Do they support the churches position on abortion?

And do the catholic workers try to convert people to catholicism?

Please answer these questions I've asked them before and got no reply.
