he wanted to negotiate with the IRA

but the IRA turned out to be the better guys while the unionists devolved into child trafficking and probably responsible for 75% of the heroin inflow into the UK

so no

They were both loving wank and the IRA was also responsible for massive drug important and extortion which now carries on in the name of RAAD and so on. Gerry Adams' brother was a nonce, if you can stop being one. Don't be a loving yank mug.

i have no delusion that the IRA weren't really loving awful during their heyday but they somewhat winded down after the troubles while the unionists just didn't. and i realize there are auxillary criminal elements that go into business for themselves afterwards, see also mafia in the US after the unions no longer needed them etc

and that shitshow is gonna start again if may is willing to toss 2 billion to the DUC war chest :supaburn:

I don't think either side was good but honest negotiations between them was the only way peace could ever happen. You don't make peace with your friends and all that.

call center thing?

also a looot of high rise apts have that flammable coating now that was made in china and never supposed to be used on the outside of a bldg

Channel 4 was tipped off to a secret tory call centre in south Wales with the info it was breaking the Data Protection Act and various Electoral laws.

quote:

Call centre employees working on behalf of the party used a script that appeared to canvass for support rather than conduct market research. On the day of the election, call centre employees contacted voters to promote individual candidates, which may be a breach of electoral law, the investigation claimed.

quote:

At an earlier stage of the campaign, the call centre staff said they were calling from a company called Axe Research, which does not appear to exist. Under the Data Protection Act, callers must disclose who they are and how the data will be used.

Asked what Axe Research was, one supervisor told Channel 4 News: “It’s just the name we do these surveys under, basically. I did a Google search, nothing comes up. But as far as anyone’s concerned, yeah, we’re a legit independent market research company.”

quote:

Evidence obtained by Channel 4 News suggests that on the day of the election, staff called voters in 10 marginal seats, including Bridgend, Gower, Clwyd South and Wrexham.

According to the Representation of the People Act, it is illegal to employ someone “for payment or promise of payment as a canvasser for the purpose of promoting or procuring a candidate’s election”.

Anya Proops, a QC specialising in information law, said that political parties had to ensure that third parties working on their behalf followed the law: “There are restraints, legal constraints in the Representation of the People Act, around paying people to canvass, to campaign.

“It’s an illegal practice, it’s prohibited under the legislation and in so far as it’s something which has tainted the overall result in favour of a political candidate, then it can void that result.”

Biden has sat immobile on the Iron Throne of America. He is the Master of Malarkey by the will of the gods, and master of a million votes by the might of his inexhaustible calamari.
All 4 of the mentioned seats went for labour, so the tories suck even when trying to tip elections illegally. Not sure about the other 6 though.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.
