Cromwell being reimagined as a "deeply tolerant" radical liberal who just wanted to to "protect religious freedom in Ireland" according to “exciting” newly unearthed documents.
He was only compelled to massacre Catholics as he was convinced many priests had instigated the 1641 rebellion, where terrible atrocities were inflicted on the poor innocent Protestant colonisers, you see.
As proof of his liberal bona fides we are told there are precise accounts of meetings revealing how keen Cromwell was to invite Jews, who were expelled by Edward I in 1290, back to England.
“He wanted Jews who could help finance trade with the Caribbean and he had no problem with granting religious freedom to get their expertise.”
“Morrill is absolutely right to pose this representation of Cromwell as a complex and godly man who – not least for political reasons – wants to readmit Jews to England and produce stability in Ireland, by offering religious freedom to Catholics"

There's a section of the British population with no conception of who unionists are.
It wasn't a one-off accident when the BBC showed the tricolour being waved to represent the north during a Queen's Jubilee montage over some rapper bigging up shamrocks or whatever.
It's indicative of something remarked upon in the Burkean:
"Loyalism has existed for centuries as a sort of political insurance policy for Britain, but now with Sinn Féin transformed into a generic Atlanticist liberal party working within British institutions, the necessity to keep Orangemen on the books diminishes."
Calling Bryson a paddy is a sicker burn than the combined heat of all the Eleventh Night bonfires.
Must really hurt knowing the people you plead loyalty to don't even know you exist.

Regarding what happened at the Thurles 'Pride' event in the town park there last Saturday .. the distribution of penis shaped lollipops to children
FYI The main local organiser of the event has put out a livestream stating that she or her fellow organisers had nothing to do with distributing 'derogatory' items

Hey everyone. I haven't been uploading for awhile. I've had a very serious injury. I herniated a disc in my spine which is pushing into the nerves exiting my spinal cord. It's a very precarious time for me. I may do a video to explain, or not. Not sure yet as life is very much changed for me and I don't know where I'm at. Hope your all well. IrishFuryan. 🙏🏻

So one individual was seen going around handing out penis-shaped lollipops to children at Thurles Pride and they were reported to the gardaí, allegedly.
I've been checking the Tipperary Pride facebook page and haven't noticed any statement about it. No reports in the media either. They don't seem interested in this story.
I did see an organiser complaining their Pride decorations were ripped down over night. Wonder what could have provoked that. The local radio station were interested in that story. 🤔

>The total number of PPS numbers issued this year is 183,601; over 9,000 more than the total of 174,525 for the twelve months of 2021. At this rate there will be over 300,000 new PPS numbers issued by the end of 2022, and over 75% of them will be to people of other than Irish nationality.
>So far this year, 27% of new PPS numbers have been issued to people who are not Irish or any other EU nationality, and not among those claiming refugee status from Ukraine.

That's how Cllr Denis Leonard's describes his top request to Roderic O'Gorman relating to the asylum seekers in Kinnegad.
I thought gardaí told the men they weren't allowed near the playground with Leonard defending their loitering as cultural differences?
