There are some experiences so awful, we hesitate to put them into words. Nuclear war, the death of a loved one, financial ruin – disaster comes in many forms and we do all we can to avoid them or even talk about them. That’s the situation for the DUP at present. It will talk at […]
PAT + JUDE TALK ABOUT BORIS’S AMBITION, DAITHI’S LAW, AND DJ CAREY, WHO IS LOVED IT SEEMS BY THE AIB
Is Boris Johnson just set on destroying Rishi Sunak or has he ambitions to return to lead the Tories into the next election? I think it’s maybe the second. Pat’s not so sure… Hurling legend D J Carey owed €9.5 million to the AIB, and they allegedly have said they’ll write off, oh, say […]
EUROPE’S DEFENDER: LETTER TO THE TIMES OF LONDON SENT Friday 17th February 2023 – BY DONAL KENNEDY

Benito Mussolini started off as a Socialist, but broke with his comrades, becoming a warmonger allied with the British.

PAT+JUDE TALK ABOUT THE DUP DEAL/NO DEAL, NICOLA STURGEON STEPS BACK, AND RUSSIAN MONEY FOR TORIES

Spies in the sky – a load of balloons?
