The Jackson one is pretty loving clever. Please tell me that's O'Donoghue singing himself?

Don't listen to forkboy, his "funded by UK government" av clearly indicates a foreign agent intending to cause disruption.

All I have to go on is his twitter and his media appearances but Gerry Adams seems like a genuinely decent guy, I'd vote for him if I lived in his constituency.

I can't watch Red Rock! Such a shame. I actually had a midnight jam session with Darragh O'Toole in the park in Galway while he was waiting for his bus back to Dublin. Motherfucker can freestyle like it's nothing. I'll try again at 8, see if the debate isn't restricted.

StoneOfShame posted:Yeah your making a false dichotomy and you know it. World leaders have ordered killings in wars and also by lovely policies whilst this is not right it cant at least be viewed as a result of a democratic process. The IRA ran communities like dictatorships and killed people for things like not helping them, selling drugs dating people from the opposite community. Can you see the difference and also why people who have had personal experience of The Troubles are very wary of Gerry Adams? Yeah of course (although slipping the drugs selling thing isn't really unique either).

Is there a clear reason for such a shift? Is it at all comparable to Labour losing in Scotland because of anti austerity and anti right wing sentiment shifting to a nationalist party?

I think every single Irish person in Aberdeen that I know is for Sinn Fein and they're getting a bit annoyed. I'm seeing lots of stuff like this being posted. http://www.thesun.ie/irishsol/homepage/irishcolumnists/6954865/Oliver-Callan-Election-media-pops-its-Gerry-over-Sinn-Fein.html Along with fresh republican memes, so I'm enjoying this election very much so far.

happyhippy posted:Téigh ar ais go Sasana tú bastaird Breataine. I understood all of that! Problem is I have no idea if I'm pronouncing it correctly, hence the need for a conversation partner. Although wouldn't it be "Téigh tú bastaird Breataine ar ais go Sasana"? Or does VSO not apply for imperatives?

Cabinet posted:Kinda. Looks like the only government that can be made is a grand coalition of FF and FG with FF being the smaller party. Ff can't coalesce with SF or a bunch of smaller lefties?

Ok that's interesting, I forgot FF weren't actually a leftist party of some form.

So uh, this might be interesting. Sinn Féin calls for vote on Irish reunification if UK backs Brexit http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/mar/11/sinn-fein-irish-reunification-vote-brexit-eu-referendum?CMP=twt_a-politics_b-gdnukpolitics
