Morning all,
Just catching up after the weekend. Some of the stories from pp about local councils are a disgrace, though I wouldn't think the NI councillors would be much better.
However I was very glad to see that the EDM was started by a NI Politian and that the independent who I wrote to had signed. Its unusual that they can think beyond the usual Red, white, blue / green, white, gold politics!
The madness of John McDonnell is hardly a surprise, the man is a scum bag IRA Sympathiser, I did some research when Corbyn came to power (ugh. what a horrible phrase) to see who these people are, and was disgusted to see that Corbyn and McDonnell had attended many IRA rallies in their youth. And that when the Anglo Irish agreement was being debated, and ceasefires discussed, John McDonnell had spoken at a Rally suggesting that violence was the only way the IRA would achieve their goal of a united Ireland.
The programme for the 1988 event, on May 8 of that year, states that “in this, the conclusive phase in the war to rid Ireland of the scourge of British imperialism… force of arms is the only method capable of bringing this about.”
