Three Vietnamese nationals walk free after being caught working a cannabis grow house with product valued at €950 thousand in Kilcolgan.

Six magic words got them off: "I'm a victim of human trafficking" — it only works for foreigners though.

According to the US State Department, the Irish government has never convicted a trafficker for labour trafficking despite the large amount of so-called victims of labour trafficking it has identified.

The halcyon days of *checks notes* ten years ago when a senior Fianna Fáil councillor called the government anti-Irish and unapologetically advocated for an Irish-first housing policy because he said non-nationals were getting housed as soon as they “breezed” into the country while Irish people seeking social housing were being told to “go home to mammy”.

South African just came to Ireland for a better life by using a fake Zimbabwean passport to make a bullshit asylum claim, drop four anchor babies and collect €96,000 worth of social welfare fraud.

Successive governments allowed it to happen because they're more concerned about gagging you from criticising the system they've left wide open to abuse.

"67 Pro-NATO attendees, 17 unknown, and only 1 representing a Pro-Neutrality position; with at least 6 connected to British spy organisations."

Shocking attempted child abduction in Bordeaux today captured on a door bell camera (there's no audio).

The grandmother's instincts kicked in a little late but luckily seems to have flustered the kidnapper enough that she saved the kid. It occurred on an avenue called Le cours de La Martinique.

The report says the African man was 'well known to police' so the French must use that same expression. Pity he wasn't more well known to the deportation squad.

SLIGO STUDENT APARTMENTS: WHY IS IRISH TAXPAYERS MONEY BEING TRANSFERRED TO CAYMAN ISLAND ACCOUNTS, IN EXCHANGE FOR HOUSING MIGRANTS?

BRAVA CAPITAL LIMITED is the asset management firm that owns the Ben Bulben Court Sligo apartments.

Note the names of the directors: GILES SARSON, ED STROVER AND PAUL CUTHBERT BROWN. Those names sound Irish? The company’s correspondence address is a London based one, however as a corporate entity the company’s legal authority and country it is registered in the CAYMAN ISLANDS

All three have worked for controversial global investment banks connected to BLACKROCK INC. Giles Sarson was the Executive Director of controversial investment bank GOLDMAN SACHS for 10 years. If you google Paul Cuthbert Brown he comes up on an offshore leaks data base (which shows lists of people and companies listed in the PANAMA PAPERS) and he worked at LEHMAN BROTHERS for 12 years, including from 1996 to 2004 as Managing Director and he was on Lehman’s Global Corporate committee. It would also appear he worked as part of Margaret Thatcher's staff during her reign as Prime Minister. Ed Strover had a significant career at Lehman Brothers, he also founded CREO CAPITAL, which has received significant investment from Blackrock Inc. Strover is also a fund manager for ALTA CAPITAL REAL ESTATE, and that company’s address (in the strangest of coincidences) is "Connaught Road". But it's not in Sligo, that road is in Singapore.


Goldman Sachs was bailed out to the tune of 10 billion dollars during the 2008 financial crash while Lehman Brothers was allowed to fail following the subprime mortgage scandal. Its failure precipitated the crash, triggering a mass selloff on the global markets. During the recession that followed, countless Irish people lost their homes. Many more lost their lives to suicide.

Blackrock owns shares in Goldman Sachs and they financially backed Lehman brothers prior to the bank’s collapse. Sarson and Strover own another company called INVESTMENT PARTNERS LLP which had filed for voluntary strike off…but lo and behold, they withdrew that on June 10th, 2023. Just five days later the story broke about the Sligo apartments. We imagine a huge injection of cash from the Irish Taxpayer helped the company recover. MSM has failed to shed light on any of this. Why?

It is difficult to verify twitter accounts but oddly under an Ed Strover (who posts entirely financial related tweets), a disparate tweet appeared last month. “Come let us mock the great that has such burdens on the mind, and toiled so hard and late to leave some monument behind …”. These are lines from W.B Yeats poem ‘Nineteen Hundred and Nineteen' where he talks about a crushed Ireland).

For those of you who don’t know, Sligo is called Yeat’s County. The Irish Poet had a great love affair with Sligo and Ben bulben.

The very last words of Yeat’s very last Poem “Under Ben Bulben” are: "cast a cold eye on life, on death. Horsemen pass by!"

Indeed, the horsemen have arrived. Maybe three of them are mentioned here. Maybe not. But this is for certain: one of the doombringers is our own Irish Government, laying catastrophe upon catastrophe upon this beleaguered land. It must stop.

Fianna Fáil Cllr. Noel Thomas called into Keith Finnegan on Galway Bay FM yesterday to discuss concerns in Rahoon/Westside that 32 male asylum seekers are to be moved from Mullingar to the Sunset Lodge on Letteragh Road (H91 FDK6) which had its windows smashed in last week.

Cllr. Thomas compared the refugee situation to a form of human trafficking and said people are making a lot of money from it.

"We cannot continue to do what we're doing here in bringing loads of people into the country. We're being flooded with economic migrants mostly...and our ministers are doing nothing to stop this."

Starting at 13:27, Finnegan was inundated with texts supportive of the councillor's remarks but said some couldn't be broadcast "because they would be racist beyond belief to be honest".

However, at 17:20, Cllr. John Connolly (FF) also called in and said the Dept of Equality says they can find no record of the property being offered to them so it's unclear what's going on.

Gavin Pepper, who was banned on twitter yesterday, chatting with some of the Iceland staff in Coolock who are occupying the store after all being laid off without warning this morning. The only way to remove the workers is through a court order.

The supermarket chain sold all of its 27 Irish stores last February, and they are now owned and operated by Metron Stores Limited which has said it is insolvent and unable to pay debts totalling €36m after the Food Safety Authority of Ireland ordered them to withdraw all imported frozen food of animal origin from its stores.

The products in question were imported from the UK but require veterinary certification from within the EU, the company were told.
