I was looking over at that place since Val announced his candidacy and those halfwits only figured it out now.

Ms Catherine says Mowl is intelligent but how the f**k did it take him this long to realise Val was running?

They had best lay off their attacks on Val, he could report them to the Gardai for political interference.

I was shocked to see how much FF candidate Shay Brennan had aged since I last saw him in 2009 when he ran against George Lee. I know 2009 was 15 years ago but this looks like the vaccine induced ageing that Thomas Sheridan talks about.

I couldn't agree more with you, Clean and Free, when you say this election is shaping up to be one where the main parties are expressing no strong views on anything, which I think is an insult to the electorate.

Not just the political parties but for example Noel French in Meath West has a good chance as an independent, came 5th last time and won 4,000 votes in the Locals, but I cannot find anywhere any of his specific policies. He put out a paid, I think, facebook post launching his campaign, which has no policies at all, and so I just asked what was his policy on mass migration. I didn't get a reply.

Mowl celery has claimed he will try to hijack and damage your campaign , I'm pretty sure this is no surprise to you and there are probably others looking to cause trouble ......if that's the case maybe us here can assist in turning up the heat on these trolls

Do you think if Val asked the Mowl to help out in the campaign that Mowl would be able to give effective help?

That was tried by the other Harris, no policies no commitments, just vote Dem 'cos we're better than the others.

Look where that got them.

Gowl needs effective help, FFS.
If he got his arsehole tightened up a bit after Tony Walsh was finished with him he mightn't come out with the rot and scutter he scrawls all over the shitsite every day. :ROFLMAO:

Back in the 1980s and 1990s Mowl was an effective propagandist. If he had something to focus on maybe he would be again? Also it is not like he would refuse Val.

I agree Clean that we have been treated badly for quite a few years now by our political class, but no I definitely think things are far worse now than ever before. I was even reading the Irish Times report of May Lou McDonald launching their campaign when the election was called last Friday, and even there it simply reports that in response to a question on mass immigration, she just refused to answer. No, for me the current generation are the worst set of politicians we ever had.

In case people think I am exaggerating about what I wrote earlier, this is the full post launching Noel French's campaign and I am not trying to have a go at him particularly. For those who don't know, he is a very intelligent man, has an excellent chance of getting the seat, and is one of the best current Meath historians:

What 15 people said about my announcement that I was running?
1. You’ve a proven track record of supporting those in your locality & I’ve no doubt that will extend to the greater Meath area
2. Most definitely Noel go for it, We need more Independent T D s up there
3. You have always supported the people .
4. I think your hard work in the locality will stand to you.
5. You would be exceptional in the role of an independent TD. George Lee made the mistake as a man of principle by going in under a party banner and he did not allow it to consume him, he bailed out with his dignity intact. You have already walked a similar path and I have every faith in your ability.
6. I think the question to ask is how many of these people who no doubt support you would assist in canvassing as there's a lot of Navan and Rural Areas you would need help to cover.
7. A good hard worker listens to the people it's a yes
8. You would get my vote, Noel, and Independents might have a lot of influence in the next Dáil. That said, the constituency you would be competing in is much larger than the local one and against candidates with high national profile. Whatever you decide, we will back you
9. You're one of the few that genuinely gives a flying damn about people, we will all back you!
10. You would be streets ahead of any of the candidates in the field so far
11. You truly are one in a million!
12. I’d vote for you
13. Wonder what odds the bookies will give?
14. Yes, you're the only one that pushes for proper change.
15. Absolutely you should go for it Noel, as an Independent you would be able to hold whoever is in office accountable without being told to follow 'party ' lines.

There is some criticism of the electorate to be made sometimes I guess. But mostly we live in a very controlled Communist country right now, and the general public just don't understand that. Good Nationalist candidates are blanked out of the media for decades so the electorate know nothing about them, but I agree they could try to find out a bit more sometimes.

I am really hopeful, I think justifiably, that things are improving though. Surely everybody can see what happened during Covid and the incredible way that the media and entire state apparatus and political parties contrived to lie to and bully the Irish people at that time? I think the penny might have dropped for some at that time...

The globalist elite don't want strong views expressed on anything, they just want party hacks to implement what they are told to. It truly is world communism.

End mass migration and introduce proper controls on it.

End transgender and sexualisation of children in schools.

Put Irish people first in allocating housing and public services.

End the global green woke campaign against

country people. Fight to keep our rural way of life,

landscape, farms, Christian traditions, sports,

our choice of jeeps, cars, tractors and keep men

out of women's sports and rest rooms without

alienating anyone.

Morning Ireland papers review are saying fine Gael are pledging to relax cannabis laws.......probably won't happen too quick or at all in a coalition situation.......but does show a new slyness by Harris to throw that out there

Then there's Simon Harris with a slogan about bringing "energy". As if that gormless creep could energise anything. Just awful, cliched sh1te that a toddler could have come up with.

Harris didn't even have the energy to blow out three candles on a cake in one breath - there's a video on Satirical Soldier's Telegram channel but it won't publish here as his channel is shadowbanned.

Note Harris's election poster doesn't have the Fine Gael party branding, instead opting for the Irish flag as a background. I've seen posters in the past without the party's branding, but this one seems like he is trying to reclaim the Irish flag from the 'far right' - in his first speech as Taoiseach he said "I want to take our flag back".
