        Agreed Daisy

        But a reconfiguring a recorded interview to say what you want it to say is reprehensible.

        I get there’s a generally accepted notion not to put too much stock into what mainstream Journalists stitch their names to, or what their publishers charge for.

        Or that this story comes to us from Gript brings its own acquired taste.

        But you also have to accept, if they, you or I carried on like that,
        We’d never hear the end of it.

        This isn’t just about casting an opinion, like say I might do over a set of accounts.
        This is actually changing the base data under the writer’s words. And putting words into a sources mouth.

        Utterly reprehensible in fact.
        I see a decent six figure coming out of this.

          Journalistic integrity is such a laughing matter nowadays.

          As per usual, Ian – oG, you’re so way off the mark.

          1. Ian - oG

            Got a point to make?

            Griot, as I said, lol.

            A website for those who are all triggered by a progressive society.

            Lol.

            …in fairness, I was apoplectic…with lolling at the journalistic bit…thankfully, I hadn’t reached integretity…haha indeed…

      Poor Beret Boy.
      Avidly reads and cites the Daily Express to prove a point.
      Then rubbishes the Daily Express by saying it’s crap.
      Just how thick can one person be ?

        Ah that’s great stuff Ten Pull Terry/Admiral Nelson/Charger Salmons etc etc
        What words of wisdom (Gerry Thornley)
        Marvelous

        You poor, constantly bewildered, incapable of comprehending what’s before your eyes, amoral eejit.

        Express front page, pictured above, features Jacob Rees-Mogg promising great things about Brexit.

        Interior of same paper features article about the wheels falling off it.

        On a scale of Crap to 10, how credible is that paper?

        Clue = about as credible as you are.

        ” Why comment about British stories? ”
        8.34am
        I think I’ll just comment on a British story.

        There really are some bovinely thick people on here today. And you’re at the head of the queue.Guess whose just behind you ?

        1. TenPin Terry

          No need to guess any more.
          Dumb and Dumber just got even dumber.
          There’s a whole clique of cretins forming today.

          1. GiggidyGoo

            Oooh. Charger Salmons smarting after a few ‘back of the nets’ cause him to shudder.
            Wetting the bed early morning isn’t good for his posting. Lack of sleep. ROFL!

    1. Kali

      She’s a world class orator and politician :)

      Also that Charger Salmon thread of him talking dirty to himself is bizarre and disturbing. I reckon he still doesn’t know how others copped it was him with two profiles.

      1. GiggidyGoo

        He’s No. 1 as well, because of all the searches made because of it being made known on this site.

      2. Fearganainm

        She badly needs an atlas.

        “…Kommersant, the Russian newspaper reported that behind the scenes when Ms Truss demanded that Russia pulls back its force from Ukraine’s borders, Mr Lavrov asked: “You do recognise Russia’s sovereignty over the Rostov and Voronezh regions?” After a brief pause the British foreign secretary replied: “Great Britain will never recognise Russia’s sovereignty over those regions.” The two regions are, of course, parts of Russia as, according to the report, the UK’s ambassador to Moscow, Deborah Bronnert, had the delicate task of explaining to her foreign secretary…”

    One of the big Covid lies is “safe and effective”

    As Goebbels’s once said – If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

    With the clot shot creating more injuries than all other vaccines combined over a 30 year period they are lying about “safe and effective”

      It’s Sunday would you fupp off with your COVID nonsense!
      I was out in Dublin last night there were lots of fine young things out with short skirts and thigh high boots on and that was just the men.

      Is Stephane Bancel Leaving Moderna For Good? CEO Shuts His Twitter Account and Is Reportedly Selling His Stocks

      http://www.showbizcorner.com/stephane-bancel-wife-and-net-worth-leaving-moderna

      Reported $400 million in stock dumped, along with $1.5n by Moderna cofounder Noubar Afeyan.

      Person of interest here is Edward Dowd, ex CEO of Blackrock, who has started investigating death statistics from funeral homes and insurance companies. He has accused Moderna and Pfizer of fraud in the vaccine clinical trials. Dowds is also predicting a war between Big Pharma and big insurance over vaccine death pay-outs.

      1. Johnny

        The absolute garbage junk thrash and just plain stupid wrong poo you write.
        He managed for a brief period a small equity fund,ex CEO -FFS you spread lies misinformation nonstop,is there just no attempt any more at basic fact checks.

          1. johnny

            WTF.
            Person of interest here is Edward Dowd, ex CEO of Blackrock
            yeah
            you
            are
            WRONG
            as
            there only ever has been ONE ever just ONE
            its just so basic
            the founder Larry Fink-its like DUH.

          2. johnny

            Blackrock has had only one,yeah just the one CEO,Larry Fink is the Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BlackRock since he formed it.

            Dowd is a nobody,a nothing,a zero,bigging him up by claiming he was a CEO,when the dogs in the street know its Larry’s shop,undermines everything and anything about finance or business plans like Spotify’s,that you opion on and scribble about,it just does and devalues the ‘sheet as a reliable source of news.

            i mean its just basic.

          3. SOQ

            So it is Edward Dowd you are talking about, not Stephane Bancel? He is cited as being A CEO of Blackrock- there a number of them within the various sub companies. Also cited as an executive.

            Either way that is a side note to the response to SailorGerry- which was about Modena. Deleting a twitter account and dumping stock is usually on legal advice and / or preceding a resignation- why?

            As for your tone of your post- https://www.webmd.com/connect-to-care/addiction-treatment-recovery/marijuana/marijuana-and-anger

          4. johnny

            W H e R e
            “He is cited as being A CEO of Blackrock- there a number of them within the various sub companies”
            nO HE is Not
            By No One
            EVer
            Like
            ..citation then.
            there are no such things as Blackrock sub companies you just made that up too,if there were and he was CEO one then,which he is not,that still does not make him,which he never was nor ever will be…

            “Person of interest here is Edward Dowd, ex CEO of Blackrock”

            …you made all this up,yeah you did,its a lie you are pathological and your post’s need be checked,they do.

    I like Gerard Howlin in the Sunday Times today – a rock of sense in a country of entitlement.

    ” More important than the money spent last week was its consequence. There would have been rousing cheers in the Kremlin for Paschal Donohoe and Michael McGrath, because their announcement that the expected handout of €100 on home-energy bills had become €200 disproportionately benefited Gazprom, the Russian state gas producer. The double dip for second-home owners is another boon. Why waste money on the poor when it is likely to be more appreciated by the rich? ”

    More importantly as well is Ireland’s dependence on others for energy when fracking and nuclear power are the obvious solutions that a cowardly political class in thrall to and dependant on the Greens don’t have the guts to pursue.

    1. V aka Frilly Keane

      Did the article come with a Conflict of Interest notice by any chance Charage?

      Like who he also represents in MKC, in the energy sector perhaps?
      Or that he is also a registered Lobbiest?

      1. TenPin Terry

        Actually V the points about fracking and nuclear energy are what I added to the post.He didn’t mention either in his article.
        Which you read ?

        1. Joe F

          Ah that’s super stuff Ten Pill Terry/Charger Salmons/Admiral Nelson etc etc
          Such words of wisom
          Marvelous

        2. V aka Frilly Keane

          Now you know two things very relevant to this little tittle tat Charage

          One is I barely scan your content, if at all. And even more rarely, engage. And you’ve known that for years.

          The other, that I’m obliged to read too much of Ger Howlin ‘s cheap disposable PR as it is.

          I was asking about the Sunday Times disclosures for their columnist. S’all.

          1. TenPin Terry

            So you didn’t read it before commenting on it.
            Just about sums up why no-one takes your illiterate ramblings on here seriously.
            Shouldn’t you be storming off in a huff soon – we haven’t had one of those dramatic walkouts that no-one pays attention to a while …

          2. benblack

            Not nearly as dramatic as yours and the far-reaching rhetorical questions surrounding free speech.

            Silent majorities and vocal minorities and everything in between.

          3. V aka Frilly Keane

            I once reviewed a book without reading it Charage….
            And still got paid

            And not for nothing, it seems to me those “illiterate ramblings” of mine
            Did alright for themselves around here,
            Here, being a location you’ve firmly established a home in.

            Certainly in terms of activity
            And most reads anyway.

            And BTW
            I’ll come and go as I please, just like Broadsheet can strip my illiterate ramblings off their property anytime they like. Their gaff their rules n’all that.

          4. benblack

            V looks frantically for a handbag to swing at an invisible foe and finds an IP address stuck between a Polo Mint, a Credit Union approved loan receipt, a key to her first car and a load of unwrapped and unused…

            What?

            Tampons or Condoms?

            Only you can decide.

          5. V aka Frilly Keane

            Did ya ever think t’would come to this ↗↗↗↗ Charage
            BenBlack there, would tog out forbya
            The state of it …

            Oh yeah. Earlier in the pm there.
            I was listening to Tipp FM, and d’you know what I remembered/ realised?

            That yourself and Ger Howlin have a lot – like big bunch of stuff,
            In common.

          6. benblack

            No, ladies and gentlemen, no tampon or condom – a fully signed up merchant of convid was all that was found.

            Bless.

    Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced measures on Friday, saying they will be used to levy stiffer fines and penalties on protesters, including a maximum penalty of $100,000 and up to a year imprisonment for non-compliance.

    In response the protesters in Ottawa built a professional stage, brought in a large sound system and lighting- and had a concert- as you do.

    This really is a very Irish way of protesting- which seems to be confusing the hell out of the US Americans- they appear to have a real issue with the idea of protesting and partying at the one time.

  4. SOQ

    Given that you can travel from France to England in about 40 minutes- the difference between the two countries approach to restrictions could not be starker than right now. England has binned the lot while France is tear gassing and arresting people for protesting- you would nearly think that it was two different viruses they had.

    Trudeau is getting serious blow back because of his handling of Canada’s protests and if this continues, Macron will be handing the reigns to Le Pen come the next election- crazy stuff.

    1. V aka Frilly Keane

      Actually, Same’Oh Q

      the difference between the two countries approach to restrictions Public Healthcare and law enforcement could not be starker – especially Funding and Resourcing Healthcare and Law enforcement.

      ‘more like.
      And all that was well established

      For decades, long before Brexshit and Covid.
