France has officially banned short haul flights, where a train can make the journey in 2.5 hours. Private planes exempt

And then one day for no reason at all a bunch of people start burning books.

You see article after article like this, where leftists claim the "far right" are taking advantage of frustrated communities. When they have to explain why most people in Ireland agree with the "far right" sentiment that Ireland shouldn't take any more migrants, they always say it's some kind of mistaken outlet for their real concerns which have nothing to do with immigration:

"The people who are drawn to protests in Ireland against asylum seekers and refugees are mostly those who feel powerless and frustrated in their own lives and communities."

Maybe the people drawn to protests against asylum seekers just don't want busloads of economic migrants dropped into their communities? Shouldn't left-wing journalists who present as the voice of the people actually listen to their concerns instead of trying to make them fit into their Marxist assumptions about how working class people think?

It's ironic because later in the article Fintan writes:

"The far right simultaneously degrades and elevates its followers."

Isn't this exactly what left-wing journalists like Fintan do? He presents this idealised version of the working class as class-conscious, plucky, colour-blind folks who who are also so stupid and easily misled that they keep mistakenly blaming their economic problems on asylum seekers and falling for the tricks of the "far right". So much so that 3 in 4 people have now been tricked into holding far right views on immigration!

Petr Poroshenko, who started the war in Donbass, said: "We will have jobs - the people of Donbass will not. We will have pensions - they won't. We will have support for children and pensioners - they won't. Our children will go to schools and kindergartens - their children will sit in basements. Because they can do nothing. This is how we will win this war..."

The year 2023. Kiev. The photo shows the Nazi sitting in the basement with his deputies, Viktoria Syumar and Sofia Fedina. This is his victory.

IMPORTANT

On 8 June 2023, the European Council agreed to "modernise" the EU asylum & migration process, with this "modernisation" including:

1) The scrapping of the Dublin III Regulations - which provide that first Member State where fingerprints are stored or an asylum claim lodged is responsible for a person’s asylum claim - noting that these regs benefit Ireland more than most given our geographical location

2) The implementation of a "new solidarity mechanism", which will include relocation, financial contributions or deploying of personnel to build capacity etc. Note cost to "relocate" asylum seeker is to be set at €20,000 per head

I discussed some of this in a video last Feb

This new agreement will still have to be voted upon given Dublin III Regulations are currently law. This is one area where significant lobbying will be needed, otherwise we will be forced to accept asylum applicants depending on our population size & GDP, or pay €20,000 pp that we do not wish to accept or cannot accommodate

A Limerick college student has waived her right anonymity in order to name the Nigerian man who was found guilty of raping her at the Cratloe Student Village in April 2018.

Utseoritselaju Uwatse (25), who moved to Ireland as a child, was sentenced to four years for the rape at the Central Criminal Court today.

Reading her victim impact statement to the court, she said:

“I don’t think there are any words that would convey the damage that you have done. The woman who is here today is broken down. I felt guilty for the heaviness I brought to my friends and family.”

A judge has refused to order the arrest of 53 asylum seekers which a communist organisation are using to occupy James Mac Sweeney House at 10 Berkeley Street in Phibsborough.

This, he said, was due to a lack of evidence before the court about the identities of the persons on the property.

He was not satisfied that all of those alleged to be in occupation have been made aware of the orders to vacate the premises previously made by the court.

Additional efforts must be made to ascertain the identities of those on the property, and that they be properly served with the proceedings before the orders sought could be granted, he said.

Gonna be tricky if they're undocumented...

The self-styled 'Revolutionary Housing League' began squatting at the property, which is being redeveloped by a charitable housing association to accommodate the elderly, on May 12th, the day their shanty town was cleared out by concerned locals on Sandwith Street.

Culling 200,000 cows is only the tip of the iceberg. They want to kill over half of Ireland's farm animals to satisfy the god of Climate Change.

🔹As Europe pushes for more electrification (electric cars & wind turbines etc.), findings by Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden 🇸🇪, on behalf of the European Commission 🇪🇺 warn that this is not feasible. With the current levels of worldwide rare earth elements production, there will not be enough of these metals in future, not even if recycling increases.

🔹The EU now risks making access to the rare earth element neodymium (Nd), difficult for future generations if they are unable to use what is already in circulation. Nd is essential to make permanent magnets for electric motors ⚙️, generators & wind turbines. Nd usage has increased by around 400% since 2006.

🔹Continuous advancements in permanent magnet technology are fueling utilization of alloys containing neodymium and is bolstering market growth. Nd magnets 🧲 help reduce the size and weight of components particularly for wind turbines generators.

🔹Contradictions arise from environmental policies geared towards electrification. A 2 megawatt wind turbine contains about 800 pounds of Nd. A megawatt of direct drive wind turbine capacity may require around 1100 pounds of permanent magnets.

🔹For example, the Bayan’obo district of Inner Mongolia 🇲🇳🇨🇳, has an open pit mine for rare earth's including Nd. Each metric ton of rare-earth element mined there necessitates clearing 3,230 square feet of vegetation and topsoil, and releases 1,000 metric tons of contaminated wastewater and 2,000 metric tons of solid or liquid waste tailings.

🔹Further problems arise as Nd magnets need significant amounts of dysprosium to perform at elevated temperatures; such as in EV's 🚗. Dysprosium relative abundance in the earth’s crust , is less than 1% of all rare earth elements. Alternatives to rare earth-based alloys already exist, but they lack the energy density needed to replace neodymium based magnets. Such alternative magnets will never be more than 60% as powerful as their rare earth counterparts.

Retired soldier Michael Burke, who is running as an independent candidate for Clontarf in next year's local elections, speaking outside the Rathmines mansion of plantation tycoon Mel Sutcliffe on Saturday.

"We're being ethnically cleansed from the land...There are 80 NGOs who go to work Monday to Friday looking for racists in Ireland, but there's not one NGO for indigenous Irish people."

"I'm after being in the Lebanon protecting Palestinians...and we have the right to exist too. This is our country. We have to be the majority."

🇮🇪 Irish MEP Mick Wallace says Zelensky has been silently selling off Ukrainian land to Western companies - the land that Ukrainians fight for.

This is just perpetuation of the ruthless Empire. "Confessions of an Economic Hitman" by John Perkins is very useful reading.

🇮🇪 Mick Wallace and Clare Daly are incredible, in face of a machine of EU/US vassals.

OPINION PIECE: Could you be a ‘PEP’. According to the EU a PEP is a politically exposed person. It has long been recognised that some professions, particularly in the political world are more vulnerable to bribery and corruption. So for example if a politician received a large sum of money from Russia or the Ukraine and banked it into their bank account the question that the bank might ask is do we really want this persons business as we will have to do extra compliance checks and this will cost us and perhaps damage our reputation. But the definition of a PEP is open to interpretation and the first indication that you might get that the bank considers that you are a PEP is a letter cancelling your bank account. When you visit your branch to enquire you will be disappointed as no explanation will be given to you. You will learn that the bank has no obligation to maintain your account, has no obligation to tell you why your account is being closed and finally you will quickly realise that no other bank will accept your business. Suddenly you have become a non person. The slogan ‘keep cash, keep your freedom’ is all very well for many smaller transactions but what about even purchasing a Ryanair ticket, operating a chequebook, applying for a mortgage . Your world suddenly becomes very limited. Yesterday the UK politician Nigel Farage revealed that his bank accounts have being cancelled and that seven other banks that he approached have not accepted his business. His financial affairs have never been the subject of a police investigation. Is Nigel Farage a PEP, it depends on interpretation, an interpretation deriving from the corporate world where finance and a particular type of politics overlap. In our own country political activist Derek Blighe had his AIB Mitchelstown bank account closed, again no explanation. According to Derek Blighe it was just a normal account, never anything irregular on it. His wife’s account got closed down as well. Again no explanation given or needs to be given. Will people in RTÉ who have been the recipients of secretive largesse have their bank accounts closed. Was ever anybody who holds marxist Leninist views cancelled. What about views in agreement with climate ideology, LGBQT and transgender ideologies, views supportive of mass immigration and all things ‘woke’. They run no risk of having their bank accounts cancelled. If you think in a particular way, act in a particular way, play along in a particular way you need have no fear of the banks cancelling you. This is approaching financial totalitarian control to enforce obedience to a particular view of how the world should be. While this censure has so far been applied sparingly one person affected thus is everybody affected. Sovereignty includes individual financial sovereignty. This type of intimidation must not succeed.
