?Mission-Driven? Government is the Antithesis of Liberty Tue Jul 23, 2024 17:30 | Dr David McGrogan
Labour is "mission-driven", says Keir Starmer. But the last thing anyone should want is a Government with a mission, says David McGrogan. That's because a Government with a mission needs conscripts. That's you and me.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4When they try to introduce "the Budget from hell" next Wednesday let's make their life hell. There should be non-stop pickets and protests outside the Dáil from midnight Wednesday the 9th to midnight the 10th. Already there are a number of protests outside the Dáil at different times on Wednesday, see http://www.indymedia.ie/article/94978, http://www.indymedia.ie/article/94987 and http://www.indymedia.ie/article/94991. Let's go all out and have rolling protests lasting throughout Budget day and make these protests even bigger and much more militant than they already are. Indeed, once we setup those protests we should stay there til we finally toss this Government out.

Lets show how upset we are by walking up and down in the freezing cold outside the dail waggling signs, while the fatcats we pay huge salaries and pensions to, look out from the warmth of the dail bar and laugh at us and carry on with business as usual. They love it when we march around and huff and puff because it diffuses the anger and the serfs let off some steam then go back to their little lives thinking how great they were for getting out there and protesting, then afterwards with the compliments of those who were laughing at the impotent protests, the serfs get to take it a little deeper in the ass while those fatcats and their pals get to drive home in their mercs. Good luck with that.
But you really should have been thinking of all this before you all voted in fianna fail yet again. after bertie cried his crocodile tears and won you gullible fools over yet again. Nobody was thinking about the consequences of your actions then were you? Or the times you laughed and rubbished the hippies protesting in rossport and suggested they get a job. You know who you are. March in the cold now, fianna fail voters. You deserve to! As for the rest of you, well you have my support but I don't think it will change anything. I marched about for years and achieved nothing. This is a systemic problem. Not something you can fix by marching about. The only thing that would change this system is nothing short of a revolution. That will never happen here. So it will continue to be business as usual. Get used to it. The 80's will seem like a cakewalk before all this is over. Welcome to hell. And we all thought it would at least be warm and dry!!
Hanafin took a break from calculating cuts in Social Welfare spending yesterday. She launched the IPA 2010 Administration Yearbook Diary . This is a snip at €70. I'm sure all welfare recipients will rush out to buy a copy. Maybe they will get 5% off.
Seriously though this shows how sick and out of touch with reality Hanafin is. She is reducing the income of the poorest people in Ireland yet she sees nothinh wrong with launching a €70 diary.
I am Irish and live in Wales, surly it is obvious to everyone that Politicians are the same no matter which country. We have crooks and robbers in the houses of parliament and the house of lord. You have crooks and robbers in the Irish Government . The fundamental mistake the Irish made was to vote yes in the second referendum thus giving more politicians more power to steal more money.
The days of wine and roses are over, and it is time to move on, but not sell your soul to Europe, there will be no more free handouts from Europe.
Irish People you need a new strategy , new policies new thinking and above all new people in power not the same tried and tested to the point of failure parties.
