That Grainne woman is an absolute dope. She puts down Sinn Fein because of the I.R.A. what were the nationalist people to do?, just sit back and let the Loyalists murder and displace them from their homes?. The brits created the I.R.A and they fought back and rightly so. Every single operation or attack from them was always not right especially if innocents were killed, but they were fighting an enemy who colluded with the british army and police force. The I.R.A have the utmost respect from most people on this island. They took the fight to an overwhelming force and brought them to a standstill. It's pretty impressive from a paramilitary group using guerrilla warfare tactics and limited resources.

There is a crisis in housing and health all generated by Varadkar and his party of the elites supported by the other main party Fianna Fail. They too were punished by the electorate. We don't want Varadkar or Fianna Gael of Fianna Fail. Theya re the parties of the bankers and the developers and the exploitative vulture landlords who have created the housing crisis.

The black and tans were ruthless british prisoners put into Ireland by the British during the struggle for independence.

Well said Daniel. People have selective memories when it comes to the troubles. Laying everything at the door of the IRA when state sponsored murder, collusion with Loyalist murder gangs and cover up was rampant. We need an Ireland for all religions. One were the poorest in our society is as important as the rich. God bless Mary Lou 🇨🇮🍀🇨🇮
Mairead Ryan I agree with you. The Irish times rep is closer to the truth. You should check out the : theduran.com also they have a very good analysis on what’s going on...and on other geo political topics. I generally avoid these bland tv news sites as they always strive to distort the facts
No way ! This newspaper has been peddling the myth that Ireland is a rich country and has a progressive government. The Taoiseach is gay and men can marry men etc. Big deal ! People can't afford a roof over their heads. Half the country can't get medical treatment. A huge fraud has been perpetrated on the Irish people and the bank debt is enormous and a stranglehold on the people. The Irish Times sees nothing wrong with this. Don't waste your money on the rag !
"The Irish Times" and "know what's going on" are two clauses that should never be present in the same sentence. For non-Irish people watching this, Una Mullally is the walking, talking avatar of the god of wokeness.
Is this how Irish politics is represented globally, my god these lot are clueless. The statement that the 1918 election was post independence just proves that they are completely clueless.
Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael have corrupted the media and they've been shown up big time. Independent newspaper has turned into spin machine. An absolute rag now.
@@gavinhillick is there anything we've done since you've had independence that suggests we want to screw you over for something, is there anything that suggests otherwise that we just want to be friends?
Sin Féin have a young and liberal voting base despite not having any green energy policy, and being Eurosceptics, two things that are VERY unpopular in Ireland. How people reconcile these factors, I have no idea. The mental gymnastics involved is baffling
How about invite somebody from Sinn Féin next time when you are speaking about us. Nobody has a clue here. In 1918, all of Ireland was under British occupation.
ciaran1988 Never been to Ireland 🇮🇪. Based on the news it seems both major parties (like here in the US) were not focused on day to day bread and butter issues of ordinary people. Sometimes people want to give other alternative a try; when both major parties seem incompetent at delivering what people want.

Hopefully the new government led by Sinn Fein focuses on the housing first , the sight of young children, homeless on the streets of Dublin eating their dinners on their laps with no place to go is heart wrenching in this day and age, the government of Varadkar abetted by Fianna Fáil lacked compassion for the citizenry as they continued with their austerity measures targeting the most vulnerable in Irish society, the Irish people have an ethos of empathy and compassion and have finally had enough of a soulless profit driven regime, Sinn Fein aligned with other socially fair minded elected TDs can finally put the country on track realizing the aspirations of revolutionary leaders like James Connolly 🙏🇮🇪.
Ireland will always be closer to North America because places like Chicago and New York have their roots in Ireland, Irish American buisness has had a massive impact on Irelands economy for 100 years. I´m not European, I'm Gaelic, I'm native, I'm educated, I can't afford a house in my native land. We should not be tennants on our own land.
Ireland is close to both the United States and the European Union. Ireland has immense soft power in the US but at the moment its values are those of the EU.
You should slow down and try to solve the issues. This is a bad time to up and down. Just stabilise. Create the stability and solve the "hunger". Don't go for bust. Don't repeat history, build something new. Slow down and deal with the issues causing the unrest.
The Elephant in the Room within all Irish Political discussion on policy & never mentioned by talking heads on RTE or Most Irish Radio stations, IMMIGRATION, MIGRATION, EMIGRATION, MIGRANTS, REFUGEES, ECO-MIGRANTS...That is why Irish People are feeling alienated in their own towns & country. Also migrants are effecting the housing shortages
I hope you people have enough sense to put aside your differences and pull together. Your politicians are importing your replacements. Muslim and African replacement.
@Richard Miller Yes , your right , look what happened when all of those Protestants came over and took over .. They. took part of Ireland and said it was for them only . Can’t have the Muslims taking another 6 counties or there won’t be much left

When you say you don’t condone the past! Would that also involve the Irish government down through the years leaving the Irish in the north behind. Get real the youngsters of today are much more educated and know when the government is screwing them over. I say what is there to be lost give SF a chance.
I’ll check back with this remark in a few years after the Irish general public finally become clued in to how anti Irish the modern SF party have become. They are not the patriotic nationalists of old, they sold their soul to Global Liberal Capital for a seat at the table long ago.
After the rising in 1916, some of the women of Dublin poured their chamber pots from out their windows on top of the captured Irishmen( who were fighting for those women's freedom) when they were being marched through the streets. The husbands of these women would have been taking the Kings crown....this woman Grainne Dirwin would have been one of those women.
How is Sinn Fein's stance on Irish unity contrary to the GFA? That guy is talking nonsense. The GFA explicitly states Irish unity is a legitimate aspiration. It also states the border poll can be called if the Secretary of state deems that it is likely to pass. These people need to read up.
SF are the last party that nationalism should have fronting a UI campaign. Everyone knows that they don't want a Northern Irish prod about the place. The SDLP and FG should be leading the campaign. As a Northern Ireland prod, I'm relieved that SF is "leading the way". The prods in the border county of Fermanagh will certainly testify to that. SF are a "political party" that still wax lyrical about the deeds of the sectarian killer gang, called the Provisional IRA.
Okay, umm, I like your content, I really do, but this was 90% dribble. Irish politics / history is complicated and its true self not widely reported (especially that of a century ago), but doesn’t mean you should bluff your way through it.
Personally I'd rather Pearse Doherty as leader of the party, and I'd be fully supportive 100% if they were more anti-immigrant, don't want to end up like London where the English are the minority. Don't forget when foreigners came to the America's and Africa and Asia and Europe and severely mistreated the native populations.
let's wait and see if they prove themselves left wing ! They have never been in power, and actions speak louder than words. The Irish labour Party fooled a lot of people with pseudo-left wing rhetoric, but they were a party of political careerists more interested in political pensions and the usual corruption which is part of Irish politics.
@Blue Crusader 'normally', and part of their reactionary forces are a backlash against their previous experience as ussr satelites. They're also countries that like to harken back to a glorious past when they themselves has empires.
Days before the general election, the PSNI found a viable bomb attached by magnets to a refrigerated trailer parked in the Silverwood industrial estate in Lurgan, Co Armagh. The bomb had been placed there some days earlier by the Continuity IRA in the expectation that the trailer would be loaded on to a ferry bound for Scotland. The PSNI believed the aim was to blow up the ferry on January 31st, Brexit day. The Continuity IRA denied this and said the bomb was intended to be smuggled to Britain: It was timed for Britain’s exit from the EU and to bring attention to the sea border. Either way, the device could have killed any number of entirely innocent. people.
...its not complicated. Anyone under 50 years of age cannot afford to buy their own home. And being an island race this desire is intense. And doing the maths and bear in mind the govts in the past 20 years have only stoked the problem so you now have a huge demographic which will vote for alternative party to fix this problem.
Worst soil erosion in Europe,which has effected water quality and food quality subsequently the health of the population. All frontiers closed to immigration the usual solution.Ireland is sleepwalking into catastrophe and their oil dependancy and neglect of their ecology (which is phenomenal) is the root cause.

@Diarmaid O'Riordan Scotland spend half on health and have a bigger population. Taking from the middle to give more to those who are not earning will drive us further in to our already unplayable debt. If we are at full employment over the last few years the social welfare bill should have dropped but it hasn't. SF want to increase this burden by taxing which will not work.
@Diarmaid O'Riordan one of the highest spends in the OECD on health but you think we need to spend more. SF won't touch the bloated middle management which is a major cause but you believe that taxing for more lunacy is the way to go. Comparing a country with a higher population, spending less on healthcare and getting better outcomes is not comparing apples and oranges. By that logic we'd have to find an identical health system with the same population, GDP etc to compare them.....what nonsense
It should be noted that SF winning isn't receiving the same type of attack as the parties of the right in Europe. Why not? Surely extremism is the same regardless of ideology. The inequality SF talks about, contradicts their words here. SF objected to abortion in the North of Ireland. They support mass migration, something that ensures low wages and restricted opportunity for the poorest in society. Everything that is said here goes out of its way to say what we all know. SF and a lot of Ireland despises Britain. But it is ultra-dependent on the UK for any prosperity. The EU couldn't give a f@ck about Ireland. America pumped millions into their economy but it didn't last. The Irish deserve everything they will get for electing a bunch of murdering gangsters. Listening to anyone connected with SF should turn the stomach. House prices in Dublin are extreme because it's the only part of Ireland where it's possible to earn money. Ireland is, like Portugal and Greece, an historically poor society. It manufactures nothing and has almost no industry of its own. How anyone thinks it's on the verge of establishing a prosperous, thriving economy with a Marxist terrorist government is flabbergasting.
All of those referenda were pushed on by European interests. No counterargument was allowed in main stream media. We are going from bad to worse. Interesting times nevertheless.

How are putting Marxists in power going to help anybody?
@@melvinmerkelhopper5752 Sinn Fein maybe many thinks, but they are definitely not Marxist. You can make the argument they are centre left socialists in that they want a fairer society. SF are not Marxists, but are currently talking to People Before Profit who aspire to a form of Marxism.
@Gggg I very much doubt that, left leaning certainly, but nowhere near the SWP/PBP.
@Gggg If you think they're far left then you must be on the extreme far right. And when, since the foundation of the state, has the left been in power in Ireland?

Sin Féin have a young and liberal voting base despite not having any green energy policy, and being Eurosceptics, two things that are VERY unpopular in Ireland. How people reconcile these factors, I have no idea. The mental gymnastics involved is baffling
They are arguably the most pro-eu party in Ireland
How about invite somebody from Sinn Féin next time when you are speaking about us. Nobody has a clue here. In 1918, all of Ireland was under British occupation.
It’s likely populist view. Throw the establishment out.

The populist view will triumph. Ordinary people will not be ignored. Call it populist if you like but you won;t stop it.

God doesn't need to bless them; the irish people have done.
I’ll check back with this remark in a few years after the Irish general public finally become clued in to how anti Irish the modern SF party have become. They are not the patriotic nationalists of old, they sold their soul to Global Liberal Capital for a seat at the table long ago.
After the rising in 1916, some of the women of Dublin poured their chamber pots from out their windows on top of the captured Irishmen( who were fighting for those women's freedom) when they were being marched through the streets. The husbands of these women would have been taking the Kings crown....this woman Grainne Dirwin would have been one of those women.
Well this is awkward.
Should we tell them about Solidarity - People before Profit?
How is Sinn Fein's stance on Irish unity contrary to the GFA? That guy is talking nonsense. The GFA explicitly states Irish unity is a legitimate aspiration. It also states the border poll can be called if the Secretary of state deems that it is likely to pass. These people need to read up.
SF are the last party that nationalism should have fronting a UI campaign. Everyone knows that they don't want a Northern Irish prod about the place. The SDLP and FG should be leading the campaign. As a Northern Ireland prod, I'm relieved that SF is "leading the way". The prods in the border county of Fermanagh will certainly testify to that. SF are a "political party" that still wax lyrical about the deeds of the sectarian killer gang, called the Provisional IRA.

Okay, umm, I like your content, I really do, but this was 90% dribble. Irish politics / history is complicated and its true self not widely reported (especially that of a century ago), but doesn’t mean you should bluff your way through it.
Personally I'd rather Pearse Doherty as leader of the party, and I'd be fully supportive 100% if they were more anti-immigrant, don't want to end up like London where the English are the minority. Don't forget when foreigners came to the America's and Africa and Asia and Europe and severely mistreated the native populations.

Nationalism found in colonised or formerly colonised nations is typically leftwing. Look up "Left-wing Nationalism".
Thank you aarcas, I'm pretty nationalistic myself, but definitely right of center, and not left at all, so I guess that is what threw me.
let's wait and see if they prove themselves left wing ! They have never been in power, and actions speak louder than words. The Irish labour Party fooled a lot of people with pseudo-left wing rhetoric, but they were a party of political careerists more interested in political pensions and the usual corruption which is part of Irish politics.
@Blue Crusader 'normally', and part of their reactionary forces are a backlash against their previous experience as ussr satelites. They're also countries that like to harken back to a glorious past when they themselves has empires.
Days before the general election, the PSNI found a viable bomb attached by magnets to a refrigerated trailer parked in the Silverwood industrial estate in Lurgan, Co Armagh. The bomb had been placed there some days earlier by the Continuity IRA in the expectation that the trailer would be loaded on to a ferry bound for Scotland. The PSNI believed the aim was to blow up the ferry on January 31st, Brexit day. The Continuity IRA denied this and said the bomb was intended to be smuggled to Britain: It was timed for Britain’s exit from the EU and to bring attention to the sea border. Either way, the device could have killed any number of entirely innocent. people.
Hurt by the IRA..... the IRA gave you a republic silly woman
Whys that Cormac Ryan spouting British propaganda, Turncoat.

@Diarmaid O'Riordan Scotland spend half on health and have a bigger population. Taking from the middle to give more to those who are not earning will drive us further in to our already unplayable debt. If we are at full employment over the last few years the social welfare bill should have dropped but it hasn't. SF want to increase this burden by taxing which will not work.
@Diarmaid O'Riordan SF suggested they can build housing at 65k a unit....they're living in lala land
@Diarmaid O'Riordan one of the highest spends in the OECD on health but you think we need to spend more. SF won't touch the bloated middle management which is a major cause but you believe that taxing for more lunacy is the way to go. Comparing a country with a higher population, spending less on healthcare and getting better outcomes is not comparing apples and oranges. By that logic we'd have to find an identical health system with the same population, GDP etc to compare them.....what nonsense

They are not nationalists
It should be noted that SF winning isn't receiving the same type of attack as the parties of the right in Europe. Why not? Surely extremism is the same regardless of ideology. The inequality SF talks about, contradicts their words here. SF objected to abortion in the North of Ireland. They support mass migration, something that ensures low wages and restricted opportunity for the poorest in society. Everything that is said here goes out of its way to say what we all know. SF and a lot of Ireland despises Britain. But it is ultra-dependent on the UK for any prosperity. The EU couldn't give a f@ck about Ireland. America pumped millions into their economy but it didn't last. The Irish deserve everything they will get for electing a bunch of murdering gangsters. Listening to anyone connected with SF should turn the stomach. House prices in Dublin are extreme because it's the only part of Ireland where it's possible to earn money. Ireland is, like Portugal and Greece, an historically poor society. It manufactures nothing and has almost no industry of its own. How anyone thinks it's on the verge of establishing a prosperous, thriving economy with a Marxist terrorist government is flabbergasting.
