The sweeping House of Commons reforms proposed by Green MP Ellie Chowns are evidence that the Mrs Dutt-Pauker types have moved from Peter Simple's columns into public life. We're in for a bumpy ride, says Sean Walsh.

Debt-Funded GB Energy to Bet on the Costliest Electricity Generation Technologies Sat Jul 27, 2024 15:00 | David Turver
So much for Labour's pledge to cut energy bills by £300, says David Turver. Under GB Energy, our bills can only go one way, and that is up.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8Good point, but I think this is a leg-pull. I never heard of Sheppard until he started posting inane comments here a few days ago. If it were genuine you would not have suggested Paisley as a possible candidate, and you would have taken more care to have spelt the names of three of the possible candidates correctly.
The presidency is a position that is reserved for the bourgeois establishment. The Irish state do not want a real open electoral process in case some anti establishment pro working class candidate got elected. If this happened who would be there to step in an 'democratically' dissolve any 'troublesome government or step in in moment of 'crisis'.
The Presidency is a sham, we should cal for it's abolition not for it to be more open
Yes TT the way our president is chosen is inane. It is a great joke! But no joke for the one with the golden spoon in the mouth who gets to the Park while many small business folk are literally busting their arse to survive.
I am happy I stirred your interest by mis spelling words.
i challenge inane comments and would love to meet you face to face and you say that to me.
Liam
I think that this is deplorable such a comment coming from TT Mr Sheppard made "inane comment". Liam Sheppard has done many good things in his time in both Belfast and in Dublin. Both protestants and catholics have a lot to be thankful for the life of Liam.

Dr. Paisley? Sure that's a good idea? Do we really want a president who can get even more over-excited than Bush? :) (Ditto for Dana)
Seamas T. Kirk would not get too excited. Being used to meeting all kinds of aliens face to face he would take it in his stride and would not get as steamed up as Paisley does, or as Liam Sheppard did above while responding to TT more or less demanding a showdown. Not sure if either of them is the type of person suitable for such an office.
Seriously though, I doubt if we need a president since we have abandoned our independence and are now ruled by Brussels anyway.
Yes I agree we are now ruled via EC. Where we go from there is a point for further consideration. A governor like the USA may e next on the cards for EC countries. President could become totally redundant.
