Nah some event happened somewhere to remind people that maybe war isn't all fun and games with public spending and might in fact be bad.

It is now Ireland's official policy that Margaret Thatcher was a right oval office, announces Leo Varadkhar.

Presumably he doesn't want to preside over them getting a kicking at the polls.

Leo cares about Leo and how Leo looks to Leo. He blatantly goes no gently caress about Ew dirty poors and recently moved to my area as it is the new hotness according to people like Leo but has been massively gentrified previously by all the gay people Leo does not give a gently caress about. He is uniformly hated around here.

He gives off massive pulling ladders up energy because that is who he is, someone who makes Tory cunts look left wing.

Also his continual rules for thee but not for me gaffes are almost custom designed to make Irish people hate him.

He may not like pints but I've heard he's big into his MDMA and rumors Meth too.
Supposedly it's an open secret in the Gay community that he's big into partying and getting off with men in their 20s.

...like most of the gay dudes I have ever met.

There is (was?) a minimum time to pension if you are in government. Biffo Cowan tried it with his lot. Remember his weird declaration of an election a noticeably odd bunch of days away from his declaration of same that just so happened to be the first day after those he appointed to cabinet qualified.

Yeah, saw that after I posted and debated doing an E: nm but I will let it stand as a monument to my hubris or idiocy.

In related news, I know a fella hates both McGregor and the Kinahan gang with a fiery passion. He claims (I genuinely don't have a reason to disbelieve him) to have had one-sided run ins with both. McGregor shat himself apparently.

Retired Commandant. I thought he was making that up initially, turns out nope, he really is. He is also responsible for more than a few of the more famous things he and his got up to. Voracious reader, taught himself Italian so he could read Il Princip in the original Italian.

Like I said, I thought he was a bullshit artist the first time I met him but some quiet asking around turns out he's the genuine article. Dunno about the McGregor/Kinahan stuff exactly but there really isn't a reason to lie about it and he absolutely loathes them, especially McGregor. He also projects "Old Man with whom you do not gently caress" energy.

Monica Bellucci

He's been officially making a bunch of claims since 2017 and telling the press to gently caress right off when they want more than his name. There's some videos on youtube and the like although his voice is so loving raspy now I only get about 10% of what he is saying in the flesh.

If you wanted to be more informed before that discussion you could read Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keeffe which I think is a good primer for non-Irish on the Troubles. But really you don't need to do homework before chatting to people, as long as you aren't too strident in your opinions

Yeah, bear in mind a lot of people had a relative beaten to death on the street in front of the RUC who did nothing except have a laugh about it. If they start getting arsey, apologise and be prepared to listen to a big, long grievance.

Oh, it bears mentioning the British government talked insane idiot poo poo for, well, pretty much the entire thing. "The IRA need help with bombs" "It's just a few people" "This is an acceptable level of violence"

See also the rebuttal "If the Orange Order want to march so badly, let's see them insist on marching through Crossmaglen."
