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.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Do you ever wonder what the War of Independence was about at all?
Our country is sold to foreign exploiters
Gunships are sent against Ireland's people
They pollute the water
Nothing is done for it
The cops and Navy fight for the ruiners of the land
Those who disagree are detained, beaten, vilified
The yellow press says 'Keep your heads down in the trough,
Money will make us happy
The rat race will bring all the goods we ever need
If we mess up this Earth, sure we'll buy another'
Do what you can to help and do it now - time is running out.
The only quote from above press-release used by the Irish Times was;
"Shell to Sea marine activists are experienced in dealing with the Spanish, German, Dutch, Royal and US Navies"
What does the writer mean by "dealing with"? This phrase is vague and open to interpretation and in my opinion has come across negatively.
Don’t give them the ammunition to drive public opinion against you.
Fair play to all of you in Mayo I wish I could be there.
Whatever Shell to Sea do will be spun by the main media - we could do nothing of course, & still be portrayed as idle spongers...the Shell to Sea activists are hard-working, peaceful, committed, & enduring a lot of hardship & danger (at the very least, lack of comfort) to protect the environment & people of Mayo. Most of the media have vested interests in projects like the Great Gas Robbery & will always oppose any popular dissent.
It's not so hard to understand: those who own the papers also own the land.
C, the notion that S2S are protecting the people of mayo is the most patronising statement so far in this forum. I think C you should look behind you at the gates and see how many of the people of mayo are supporting you, tell you what have a look at the ballot box counts from rossport from the last general election none of the TD's sitting supporting you lot at the time got re-elected! Now i doubt you need a rocket construction kit in your back garden to figure this out.
The people of Mayo dont need your or nialls help, like we said to you in the general election go home, you dont represent anyone, if your aim is to represent anybody in Mayo i suggest you stand for election in the rossport area and prove me wrong. If you dont have the balls to do that go home.
What Mayo needs is proper investment to stem the increasing unemployment, emigration and stagnation that the end of the mishandled Celtic Tiger has brought with a vengeance. The people were sold a pack of lies by the politicians back in May 07' about the economy and were this country was heading, aided and abbeted by the state broadcaster(including the now infamous late late show benefit for Bertie) and the O'Reilly press etc. The treasonous giveaway of our vast oil and gas resources has now come back to bite the country more severely and sooner than anyone including myself ever would have thought what with rocketing energy prices(another massive price hike on the way via bord gais) and a massive and growing deficent in the coffers of this state which could have been filled with revenues from the wise exploitation of these resources . This fact is still being hidden from the bulk of the irish people by the same elements who dominate and control our media for the benefit of the powerfull monied vested interests who control politicians like puppets. Until this situation changes the future is indeed bleak for this country.
Len, you keep going on about the 2007 election, but you know well that John Carty, who supported Shell and acted as host to a delegation of the company's management to Leinster House just after the Rosspot Five were released, lost this seat.
You seem to attach no significance to the fact that a Fianna Fail cheerleader for Shell was sent packing, but think it enormously telling that Jerry Cowley wasn't re-elected.
Apart from the obvious and clear fact that the general election was not fought on the Corrib issue- why do you ignore John Carty's loss as if it did not happen?
