    He BoJo, do you know how you could thank NHS staff enough? By paying them the raise you denied them and making sure they have proper funding. But we all know that won’t happen.

      I can’t believe how bad Hancock, Patel, Drabb and Co., are. Victim blaming the NHS for over using their PPE. Questioning if NHS staff caught the virus at work. Bozo getting the virus through stupidity and the British media parroting that he took one for the team or he is on the frontline. What frustrates me most is so many Irish people thinking Ireland is doing well because our death rate is not as bad as Britain’s. That is not the barometer we should be using. Compare with countries that are doing a good job and copy them. Force all arrivals on the island into two week quarantine. That is what is working in Australia and New Zealand. Anything less will not work.

      Unfortunately, I think you are right. The current Aussie government are not going to help him.

      Thanks for the link..

      I tried to post twice about how the court process has been proven to be corrupt etc. -Using muted self-censored colourful language…

      Also tried to post a link to Going Underground with Affshin Rattansi, one of the only media outlets reporting regularly on Julian Assange and many other mostly unreported or completely unknown issues by the mainstream. – Interesting interview with John Pilger (The well known, well respected journalist and filmmaker) on covid19 as he has done an investigative journalism documentary on the NHS recently.

      ..but whoever the moderator is just keeps deleting it over and over.

      Hi BS, if RT UK and it’s many various independent run channels are allowed on YTube, why are you allowing Ytube links being posted for everything else?

      Nasty bit of censorship going on folks… or am I missing something ??
      (like an X chromosone hehe)

      Waiting for the first [REDACTED] to say RT is funded by the Russian Apparatchik blah blah…

      :-J

        RT – UK – Going Underground – with Afshin Rattansi
        https://www.youtube.com/user/GoingUndergroundRT/videos
        – Great reliable journalism and informative guests on Asssange and all kinds of other issues that are less known or not talked about at all in the usual drip-feed msm filtered rubbish .

        J.Pilger on COVID19 is another good recent one…
        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jt58it26jCs

        & Yes I know RT is owned and funded by the Russian Apparatchik blah blah blah..

        FREE JULIAN ASSANGE !!!
        (-with every failing tyrannical super-power empire)

      I wonder if the UK taxpayer money they are spending on denying Assange his Human Rights, could be better spent?
      The gutter press now set on his children, like trained dogs. I hope he doesn’t die in jail, but it’s not looking good.

      1. :-Joe

        The gutter press is a function of the media, a hand and not the half-braincell it appears to be.

        It’s another distraction and a way to squash dissent by everyone involved and a reminder to all that it will happen to you too, if you don’t eat you greens and get up early and worship the cult of bland media spun neo-liberal economic based non-politics..

        Assange is F’d either way.. – Physical/mental health already described as about the same as shell shock /PTSD and an Obama/Gitmo Torture victim rolled into one. Official W.H.O investigation.

  2. One ussername per commenter please

    Greavsie and Phil Collins? I thought they were one and the same person….

    FFG trying to “lure” smaller parties into government. Let’s see who will bite.
    Halligan was “lured” into government. No sign of the Scanner in Waterford. No sign of Halligan now.
    Greens didn’t need a lure. The hook was enough. It decimated the party.
    Labour – like the Greens, no lure ever required. The hook was always enough. It decimated the party.
    FF and FG don’t need lures to co-habit. They’re two asses of the same beast (to quote a Fr. Ted – Dougal – reference)

    1. Rosette of Sirius

      Can’t your Sinn Fein try do the same thing?!

      They and their kind have form. ‘Luring’ people.

      Paul Quinn for example.

        1. MaryLou's ArmaLite

          Paul Quinn was lured into a shed and beaten to death with baseball bats and iron bars. Every bone in his body was broken. After his death his name was sullied by SF/IRA.

          Remember a vote for SF/IRA is a vote for murder.

          1. GiggidyGoo

            You omit to say that it was the Gardai, and Bertie Ahern who said that the killing was a ‘criminal feud’.
            The IMC also concluded “We think that the attack on Paul Quinn was planned and carried out by local people and that it arose from local disputes,” the IMC said.”Whatever the immediate reason for the killing certain aspects of these disputes go back some time and were not unconnected with continuing illegal activity.”The IMC said it believed former IRA members or associates had been among the gang who had carried out the brutal attack on Quinn, but said it could find no evidence that the IRA had ordered the killing.”The fact that some local members or former members or associates of the organization were involved in the incident does not in our view justify attributing it to the IRA,”

            So the IMC, Bertie Ahern, the Gardai and the PSNI sullied his name. The media, by repeating that, also sullied his name.

            Awaiting the third member A Thingy to appear.

            And in the meantime, think up another diversion.

      1. GiggidyGoo

        My Sinn Fein?. I think yourself, A Yoke and MLAL, the unholy trinity, should go get a room. You, and your FFG ilk tried to link SF to Paul Quinn’s murder (notably, coming up to election as is the form anyway), yet both the PSNI and the Irish government made it clear that neither the IRA or any member of SF were involved.

        The diversion from what I posted of course is typical FG. Each and every time the photo-shoot whore came under pressure in the Dail, and he couldn’t (wouldn’t) answer questions, it was ‘divert, divert, divert’.

        Hope you and your two other members of the unholy trinity are practicing social distancing. Doubtful though.

        In the meantime FFG, the Beast with two asses, tries to set about luring and demolishing more smaller parties. But it’s good now that there is a clear divide, and a proper opposition is defined.

        Toddle along boys.

        1. Rosette of Sirius

          Never voted SF, FG or FF in my life…..

          And the dogs on the streets of Castleblayney, Crossmaglen and Keady know who killed Paul Quinn and why…..

          Your fanatical support of SF and their misdeeds is very telling….

          1. GiggidyGoo

            Somehow bringing to your attention some facts is fanatical support? Maybe the truth of the matter doesn’t fit in with you. Your own diversionary tactics anytime FFG is put under the spotlight is what’s telling.
            Why would you bring Paul Quinn into a discussion about formation of a government here when you (should) know the facts and not be distorting them?
            FFG are well known for using the likes of Mairia Cahill, Paul Quinn’s family, Austin Stack for political gain, and then dropping them. Funnily enough it always happens at election time.

          2. Rosette of Sirius

            T’was your use of the world lure and how it reminded me of the Quinn ‘luring’…

            Anyways. There’ll be no fear of Mary Lou ‘luring’ anyone into government because nobody wants anything to do with them….

          3. MaryLou's ArmaLite

            It was SF/IRA abuse, and SF/IRA child abuse, that enabled other political parties to use them against SF/IRA.

            Remember a vote for SF/IRA is a vote for murder

    …the latest Assange story should serve as a timely reminder that crooked Hillary wanted to order a drone strike on the Embassy in central London to asassinate Assange…

      1. bisted

        …nah…don’t really care now that Hillary managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory…how many people are alive today since she didn’t manage to get her murderous mIts on the button…

    Can someone let Michael D Higgins know that his asinine shine a light campaign resulted in people meeting up and having drinks. What happened stay at home?
    Idiot symbolism = virus spreading
    Foolish man leading foolish people.

    1. Rosette of Sirius

      What an utterly ridiculous assertion.

      “Eg, sorry dere Gard. De President made me do it…..”

      1. baz

        Feelings hurt? It happened. WhatsApp groups arranging to meet for drinks over candles, then socialising and sharing their Insight as epidemiologist graduates from Wikipedia – the irony of their actions slaughtering their pathetic symbolic gesture lost on them.

        Mixed messaging from those supposed to be in charge. Stay at home versus RTÉ showing terrace heads watching movies in inferior conditions to their own 55’’ TVs

        Simpleton plying for the mentally weak.

        1. ReproBertie

          “RTÉ showing terrace heads watching movies”
          From the acceptable social distance of their own front gardens.

    Intensive care doctors question ‘overly aggressive’ use of ventilators in coronavirus crisis

    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/intensive-care-doctors-question-overly-aggressive-use-ventilators/

    I posted a video from my future husband Cameron Kyle-Sidell, MD @cameronks last week where he broke ranks and appealed directly to other medics about the dangers of ventilator over use- he was then pulled off ICU care. One week later, doctors caring for Boris Johnson have already adapted the new treatment paradigm- the power in the internet so.

    It is most unusual where patients are sitting up in bed and able to talk apparently. It will be interesting to see if the fatality rate goes down with this new approach in which case, Cameron will be proved right. Why CoVid-19 causes altitude type sickness is another story of course.

      1. Some old queen

        We have already gathered that laughing up your sleeve is your specialty- having a view or two of your own would be nice- just now and again would be fine.

        You are like a manager in Irish Water at this stage.
