That was a good speech. And fair play, he has 10 men behind him which is more than Simple Simple could get if they were not paid.

 

[Anderson]

Omg, literally handing freedom of expression to the government.

The fact his uniform looks like a certain uniform from history will have the government salvitating.

 

[Declan]

I have said before, he is not the man to be a leader, but he gives a good speech and is an intellect. His role should be advisor.

but we must ask, who is paying for flags and banners and such

International Jewry. They're funding idiots like him to discredit nationalism.

I could think of better ways to announce the arrival of a paramilitary grouping.

Bussing them into a country hotel with a full garda escort would be one.

He's now appears to be a Blackshirt, Chief Commander of the Far Right!! Who else?

Michael Collins while less divisive than someone like Kevin O'Higgins is still kind of divisive- I think he unnecessarily put off some solid people who would otherwise have been attracted to his message.

Its what happens when Free Staters reckon they'll play at being Nationalist

I don't want to be completely sceptical, but does it look a little like somebody deliberately banjaxing our efforts by coming across as supportive of Nazism/Fascism? There is really no other person like that in Ireland at all I would say.

 

[Mad as Fish]

All this talk of the far right but no figure to point to as some sort of leader or representative, and then Barrett conveniently fills the very role the hard left have been desperate to have someone play. There are just so many coincidences in politics…..

 

[SwordOfStZip]

Personally I think the uniform stuff looks attractive and even exciting however I also appreciate that I may not be reflective of the wider audience he was aiming for.

rod marching bands wear military style uniforms and whatever about the politics some of the them look really good. It is interesting that in Ireland that it seems to be often the Catholics or people from Catholic backgrounds who are allergic to a bit of "pomp and circumstance".

Barret though has been active in Irish politics from the very early 1990s on and off. It is not like he popped out of nowhere.

He wrote a book in the 1990s called "The National Way Forward" which showed the influence of Derek Holland and was maybe even more "Fashy" than Derek Holland was at the time.

It would be foolish not to suspect such

 

[scolairebocht]

Yes, it looks like that to me anyway. But he also makes a good speech, better than anybody I can think of, and unfortunately he is right, this mass immigration is the planned destruction of this country. We all need to fight against this thing big time.

 

[Declan]

I think Barrett is genuine. However, his son ze makes it impossible for him to be a Michael Collins. I would wonder however if someone close to him is not feeding his ego.

 

[SeekTheFairLand]

Barrett from what I know of him was very critical of the IRA. This is very typical of the scum of Fine Gael from which Barrett emerges. And here he is, aping the stylings of the PIRA.

However its only the stylings and not the substance. As I said earlier, unless these SN start giving a more carbon copy of the whole IRA approach [Without the later sell out] they are just cartoon.

Should other approaches emerge they could get substantial sympathy, support and members.

McGuirk's smuggness I find extremely off putting to put it mildly. When it comes down to it Barrett beats him utterly when it comes to not only sincerity but thoughtfulness. If the regime here basically are the flying monkeys of the US Democratic Party McGuirk is or maybe just wants to be the flying monkey of US Republican Party.
