Must be the only site open in Dublin!

A disgrace that this man was allowed into our stadium.  Hes running aronud laughing and smiling as if butter would melt in his mouth. and he has millions working as slaves as he wines and dines.  The GAA are a disgrace by entertaining this man

If we best buddies with both of the world's hyper powers and the jobs start rolling in no one will care one jot about Tibetan monks or displaced village people. We, like everyone else, lose our morals very fast when we see the economics of being in bed with China.

China will probably end up more democratic in time, but the fact is the outside world has entirely zero influence on that process and John Gormley-ing it up and snubbing the Chinese is akin to punching ourselves in the face repeatedly.

I'm not criticising that per se, it's just pointless to give out about any foreign leader entering Croke Park when the most controversial possible figure has already done so.
