It’s not the blummin’ Maze.
Incendiary giggling and frivolity at the launch of Sinn Féin’s Campaign for a Yes Vote in the Marriage Equality Referendum at Buswell’s Hotel, Dublin.
Harrumph.

Maybe there should be ‘Nope’ cupcakes for the sake of bNOMNOMNOM.

Self abusers,
( see what I did there admin, I’m learning!!)
What ja mean?
It’s w*nkers isn’t it? Amirite… amirite
“It’s not the blummin’ Maze.”
Cheap.
Though the incendiary quip was tasteless, it did at least give me a chuckle.
Good to see the Sinn Féin backing Union for everyone.
When I see Sinn Féin I feel physically sick.
Whats your point?
Don’t worry, a police-supporting RNU Dissident leader will be along any second to explain the Freudian reason for your disgust.
Take a tincture of Joan, Enda and Micheal and you’ll be fine.
Like in a southside horrified ewww kinda way?
Sinn Féinn bleurgh child abusers rant rant rant murderers blah blah blah
Are we so desenitised that all that is considered trivial?

Ha, as someone who has been actively (but not politically) involved in the Yes campaign , I have never seen as many cliques, gangs, pettiness, preening, bitchiness and internal squabbles in any campaign I’ve been involved in. IMO Sinn Fein are a welcome ally in the campaign, they will have credibility where lots of the other groups won’t.
Have to say SF have a creditable record of supporting equality on the other side of the border, challenging the gay blood ban, campaigning for marriage equality, marching shoulder to shoulder in the Pride parades and heartily condemning gay-bashing. Fair play to them in that regard.
Yep. I’d also suggest that for the duration of the campaign, other differences should be put to one side. All the bickering and name-calling can start again when the referendum is passed.
SF has been unwavering supporters of the Gay movement for a very long time. Unlike the recent ‘converts’; along with Labour/SDLP they have consistently argued that gay equality benefits everyone.
Credit where it is due.
+1 FF and FG are the recent arrivals here, welcome and all as they are.
Credit to the Green party too – when I was organizing the protests at the Russian Embassy in 2012 Eamon Ryan was the only TD to show up and support.
Putting the Gay in Gaelic.
“as someone who has been actively (but not politically) involved in the Yes campaign ”
Lies make baby Jesus cry.
Is there something you’re afraid to say?
Nope.
Be quiet so. Good lad.
I’m not afriad to say something, so I should be quiet?
A dog in the manger for sure
The state of them. Christ.
Is it just me or is Mary Lou turning into Mamma fratelli? It must be the bob hair do.
Hah!
Unfortunately for Mary Lou, she’s already the spitting image of Ma Baker (“a ruthless crime matriarch”)

All together now,
Ma ma ma ma
Ma Baker
She never could cry
Uncanny.
Little danger of her ever being a hunger striker.
You mean nothing to me….
I still love you, Anne. You know that, don’t you?
And if you sit on your hand until it’s numb you can pretend it’s her. Just like he pretends to be she.
Do you think she strokes Aengus O’Snodaigh’s chin and blows in his belly-button and gurgles “oooh, kutchee” and Aengus’s ears twirl? I wouldn’t put anything past them!
I pictured them in doctors and Garda uniforms…. I cannot unsee… thanks
I’m thinking of little else since 9.36. Thanks Soundings.
Is this not political opportunism by SF. they got it wrong in the Senate
referendum, is there an anti gay rump laying the long grass ready to inflict
mortal blow to uphold their moral values…..? “they haven’t gone away” you know.
Yawn…
Let’s talk about the real issue here, the elephant in the room, which everyone seems to be conveniently side stepping : Is that butter cream or real cream on those buns?
Oh, that elephant…
