    Morrissey has views on how we ought to behave.
    The Sunday Times thinks we care.

      sadly, there’s no shortage of fools sharing views that nobody wants to hear

      excellent initiative. our prison system here is appalling in terms of helping to rehabilitate prisoners

      1. Topsy

        I love that word ‘appalling’ It means SFA but keeps others onside with a meaningless sense of ‘outrage’ – oh there’s another lovely worthless one.

  2. GiggidyGoo

    Let’s have another refrain:

    ‘Oh the Grand Old Duke of Cork
    With his band of TD men
    marched them up to the top of the hill
    And marched them down again.

    Aaaannnnndddd
    When they were up, they were up
    And when they were down, they were down,
    And when they were only half way up
    They were still being led by a clown.

    1. Candy Crush Guru

      Thank you Giddidy Goo.
      I was bored with the papers until I saw this.

      The Broadsheet Comments section = sure where would you get it.

      I don’t think I would bother with the place otherwise.

    Big Phil earning his EU corn.
    Varadkar toeing the Merkel party line.
    Always following,never leading.Paddy knows his place.

      1. martco

        there was a tool on Andrew Marr this morning Robert Oxley who basically said that Paddy would want to be careful playing with fire by threatening the veto y’know….else they might get a much harder border than feared…Marr kinda let him away with it…disappointing

  4. Charger Salmons

    If Socks Verruca had any brains about him he’d acknowledge that the UK voted to leave the Single Market and Credit Union and be working with the mainland to procure a good economic settlement for Ireland as part of the Brexit negotiations.
    But as we’ve seen in the last couple of weeks the hosiery-exhibitionist half-wit isn’t the sharpest tool in the box and instead is allowing himself to played by Druncker et al in a dangerous game with Blighty.
    The only outcome is a Hard Brexit and the cretin hasn’t yet realised that Ireland will come off worse than any other country including the UK if that happens.
    He’s even making Enda Kenny look like the Henry Kissinger of Irish diplomacy.
    If only Bertie Ahern was in charge ….

      1. Twunt

        He is like some weirdo Anglophone ShinnerBot. He taken the role of Intellectual Yet Idiot and decided to become its mouthpiece.

        @Charger
        any chance you would write up a weekly column for the BS? perhaps u could call it the red white n blue revue

        I really do enjoy the bile done with wit thing, I’m not remotely insulted and do enjoy..some of your observations are crackers…having buttered sliced pan with the mains at an EU dinner was a classic

        PS. any chance you’re the lovechild of Katie Hopkins and Farage?

        1. Nigel

          I wouldn’t give a crap about him – you masochistically want more of this tedious racist jingoism go to the Daily Express comment section it’s two-a-penny – but this guy had a go at the victim in the Tom Humphries case. But maybe you think that’s funny too.

        2. Charger Salmons

          Well without Lord Farage of Abbott Ale there would never have been such a glorious thing as Brexit – a genuine populist revolt that shook the British establishment to the core.
          He has a sharp mind and is a great public speaker who is able to convey the corruption,greed and incompetence of the EU with aplomb.
          Hopkins is just a contrarian with little substance but she seems to be popular with the Irish if her Late,Late Show appearances are kianything to go by.
          Mind you Paddy is easily fooled – you only need someone to think they saw a statue of the Virgin Mary moving and half the country turns up to wail at the full moon and flagellate themselves with thorn branches.
          Much as I suspect the Nigel on here does to work himself up into a frenzy of indignation.

          1. Noone

            Charger has a point about the moving statue morons. A bit like the twits in Blighty who believe in the super eminent domain of the sovereign

          2. Warden of the Snort

            I agree that Farage is an extraordinarily gifted politician, mostly likeable, funny and charming, despite the deplorable lies, filth and snake oil exuding from his every utterance.

          3. Charger Salmons

            There are few YouTube videos that I look at which make me laugh out loud.
            Every.Single.Time.I.Look.At .It.
            But this one’s a corker.
            It’s the combination of Paddy’s globally-accepted drunkeness but also his indefatigable spirit to get up and have another go.
            No matter how may scoops Pady has he’ll still be there at the end of night with his dukes up inviting everyone to come on and have a go.
            He’s there this very moment on street corners in Dublin.Cork and Limerick as we speak.
            Top man Paddy.We love you.

    she’s what that 4 letter word beginning with C and ending with T prefixed with the word Rotten was invented for, dreadful woman

      1. LW

        I know self reflection isn’t your strong suit, but do you ever wonder if your obsession with Nigel might be gone too far?

          1. LW

            Clampers and justsaylike swung it for me. Deep affection and distrust of traditional media overcoming different outlooks. West Side Story without the singing. Romeo and Juliet, with Kool-aid instead of poison

          2. mildred st. meadowlark

            I’d also like to add Frilly and Tony to this mix. They speak a language of their own. It’s almost poetic.

  6. Shayna

    I do have to say,@Charger Salmons, that’s quite a bit of trolling you’ve done right there. Your party must be so proud – Nigel Farage, Katy Hopkins held in high esteem?
    You referred to The Irish as, “Paddys” – now, that would be a tad racist on it. Whoever you are, I do hope that the other regular BS commenters have the good sense not to react to your ultra right-wing drivel.
    Also, May the road rise to meet you,
    May the wind be always at your back.
    May the sun shine warm upon your face;
    the rains fall soft upon your fields
    and until we meet again.
    There is another line, which I with-held, because, it mentioned God. As a lapsed Catholic, I’m not qualified to mention God.
    Are you qualified to mention your party allegiance?
    I’m thinking Tory Party, London. I think you may be rumbled!

    1. The Custard Machine

      …I do hope that the other regular BS commenters have the good sense not to react…

      Oh dear…

    As an example of someone who really doesn’t understand what the true reality of Europe is the Irish Times resident economic ” expert ” Chris Johns takes some beating.
    This was the gowl-bag who predicted an immediate deep recession on the day Blighty democratically voted to re-negotiate its trade deal with Europe.
    He’s now whining like a loose fanbelt.

    1. Brother Barnabas

      Eh, Charger, did you read that article?

      And you do know the author is British, right?

      Looks like you’re parodying your own persona now.

      1. Sheik Yahbouti

        Bro, he said ‘gowl bag’ and has thus outed himself as a bogger. I don’t know what it means, but I know they say it ;-)

          1. Warden of the Snort

            No he’s not that bad. He’s not even as bad as Clampers or Nigel.
            At least he’s funny at times.

          1. Nigel

            Buffoons like that brought about Brexit and elected Trump, and they keep goose-stepping on while idiots like you tell everyone not to take them seriously because they make you laugh. Buffoons like that freely spew endless streams of anti-Irish racism on an Irish web-site and some people actually applaud. It’s like watching a creepy stalker pick-up-artist sleazebag home in on anyone with low self-esteem with a barrage of relentless negging. It’s ugly.

    1. Shayna

      @Nigel I”m not sure about the whole goose-stepping thing. A tad too far there? I’ve got a smattering of 4 European languages, not including Irish and English. Yes, yes and Yes! Build a hard border, Leo. Smuggling trade will pick up, more police and army at check-points, perhaps the whole, “Shoot-to-kill” policy will re-emerge? Good times!

      1. Nigel

        Not sure you can switch from racist tirade to praising Farage with that straight-faced self-parodying boilerplate propagandist hagiography without being a neo-fascist, to be honest.

        1. LW

          Could you, for the sake of argument, link to a single instance of him calling you a nazi? Or are you just making stuff up again?

  8. Naoml

    ‘Preposterous’, how have you barred memes, blocked LW and Mildred for the time being, but allow Charger, this racist knuckle dragger, to continue spewing his hate-filled crap? What the actual fupp?

    1. Charger Salmons

      Ah,the echo chamber of the intolerant mung bean-munching sandalistas.
      Pleeeeease Broadsheet – he’s saying stuff we don’t want to hear.
      Ban him.

      1. Naoml

        Your self-loathing is difficult to stomach. You’re part Irish and living in Ireland, probably with an Irish wife and children, get a grip and build a bridge.

        1. Charger Salmons

          I’m 100% Irish.
          Right down to the chrome buckles on my shoes and the white socks encased inside them.
          I’m that fan with the ginger wig and the green leprechaun hat you see at the qualifying stages of every international football competition that Ireland never goes to.
          I’m the feller at Dublin airport heading off for the week’s work in Blighty every Sunday night with me mam’s sangers and a bag of Taytos for the journey.
          I’m the lost Viber generation living abroad because the people I elected to look after me were too interested in their own greed and stupidity to care.
          I’m the sound feller at the end of the bar of pubs the world over missing my home town but now too comfortable in the job and life that another country is providing for me to have the courage to go home.
          I’m you.

      2. Candy Crush Guru

        “Echo Chamber”
        Now that’s interesting Charger Salmons, and a big help. You have satisfied my mobbing theory of last week, therefore it is no longer a theory.

        Thank you; I hate loose ends.

    2. Shayna

      I recant to Bodger, and the powers that be, do allow Charger Salmons to be allowed henceforth to spread ill of types, etc?
      I would be of the anointed.

      1. Noone

        By that token you should be barred as well with your taking offense at being called a “Nordie “ while slagging off “Dubs”. I agree with John that the forum should be open as much as is practical but memes did threaten acts of physical violence and seems to be on a knife edge some of the time

          1. Noone

            Ah sure is that not what all the GAA stuff is? Tribal, parochialism? Me feinism if Tyrone which is why they had to bring in that black card crap?

          1. Brother Barnabas

            yeah. and another before that.

            and no doubt a different one altogether tonight.

            the beauty of Gmail.

  9. Shayna

    I did implore BS readers, not to engage with Charger Salmons, but, my heeds fell on deaf ears. Anyhoos, ádh mhór a bhíann.

    1. Noone

      He’s good craic and our lives are worthless, barren, barbaric and futile mostly – otherwise why would we be in here? He makes us feel superior albeit briefly

  10. Shayna

    I’m going to go ahead at this one last address to Charger Salmons, “Have you kissed The Blarney Stone?”.

  11. Shayna

    Then, you are true Irish. No true Irish types have been down there, it’s quite the palaver, what with ropes etc.

    1. Shayna

      By the way, I’m not great with Tory types, Irish, or whatever, nasty English, I just wouldn’t be that great with them.
