Should a Right-wing, reforming government gain power at the next election, it will face the full resistance of the Blob. The 2023 ousting of Dominic Raab is instructive in how this will run, says Dr David McGrogan.

Jump To Comment: 1 2Oh stop whinging. Nobody really believes anything in Irish newspapers anyway. It seems to be a prerequisite to becoming a National Union of Journalists' member that you have to be able to tell bare-faced lies without letting the truth get in the way.
Most ordinary people know what self-styled Irish journalists are - recyclers of ideas and copy from London newspapers and purveyors of sensationalist and mindless stories and given to cheap promotion of pals.
Even at the "sainted" Irish Times I know of lots of journalists who are getting presents, dinners, holidays, etc. from the businesses or people they write about.
Journalists in Ireland (with the possible exception of the Sunday Business Post) are a lousy useless bunch. They are also some of the biggest tax dodgers in the country - just look at Conor Cruise O'Brien (also, I might add, a former Labour Party Minister).
