Sinn Fein? They have gone away, you know.

[Rossfan]

It was a bit of stupid pettiness by the 3rd most stupid British Government of the last 12 months.
Balance of probability at the behest of DUPUDA.

[seafoid]

It looks like an effort to distract from something else. Triggers all sorts of emotion, nobody paying attention.

NEW: The UK will bring forward legislation this week which could see work on the construction of border control posts at Northern Ireland ports resume, following months of controversy related to the Northern Ireland Protocol, @rtenews understands

Would they be that stupid?

Mcdonald f**k all up here, I wouldn't vote for her, What's the point in Michelle O'Neill if she needs backing every time she has to met the UK govt. Did McGuinness need down south help when he was in the same position.

Not sure what planet you were living on during the Adams/McGuinness era but they routinely met the British Government together. Can you recall a single instance where they were told that they couldn't both attend a meeting with a British government minister? I certainly can't.

I used to vote Sinn Fein to she came on board....Don't know what Adams was thinking when he decided on her.

OK. We'll just ignore how they've grown to be comfortably the largest party in Ireland since she became leader then

Wildweasel is either too stupid to realise that Sinn Fein are one party and don't differentiate between north and south or is being a obtuse deliberately. I'm not sure

Here's an interesting one...

McDonald is registered with the electoral commission as the leader of SF in NI. 

She isn't registered as the "leader of SF in NI". She is registered as the leader of SF. Probably because that's what she is.

Not that interesting is it?

[Snapchap]

You're talking as if SF are some sort of ultra squeaky clean political party and not one up to its eyes in murder and criminality.

SF as a party is currently involved in murder and criminality? Care to elaborate?

[Eire90]

do you think sinn fein will transform into right wing if it suits them.

Like it or not ML is the leader of SF period. You don't get to tell them who they send to talks, unless you are a member, which given your bile I doubt.

A few closet DUPers on here

She is from what I saw and it is interesting if so. You are very defensive as my point is not anti SF. It's interesting from the perspective of if that's the case then cleverly/ Tories or whoeger are 100% in the wrong.

Difference this time is the border posts are at the ports and not the border. This would effectively say ni is separate from UK which will piss of the dup further

Jesus I completely read that wrong, thought it meant checkpoints between the 26 and 6. Checks at ports are annoying too tbh but better than land border. DUP getting shafted by the Tories again who would have seen that coming.

Funny thing is, unionists would be treated with far more respect and have a far greater say in things in a United Ireland only they are too pig headed to see it.
