Immigration is the number one issue because it costs hundreds of millions of Euro to house, feed, clothe and transport these people (some of whom are complete fraudsters)

I guess it depends on what your definition of a far right party is

Some people regard Aontu as far right

Some people regard Aontu as center left

How would people on here categorize them?

Whether you like or dislike McDowell he argued points of law as it pertained to the failed referendums and what he said made all the sense in the world.

The govt tried to pull a fast one and it cost Varadkar his job

If I were to hazard a guess, "far right" (by the standards of this board) will get somewhere between 15-20% of first preference votes in the next General Election

Hopefully he'll be replaced by someone with some common sense

Quote from: weareros on March 09, 2024, 03:50:46 PMYou'd have thought removing these two backward Eamon DeValera clause in the Irish constitution (family is founded on marriage, a woman's duty is in the home) would have been an easy win for the Irish government. Had the vote been held between 1993-2008, it would have easily passed. The mood has now shifted and it's not unlike Brexit or Trump's America where the people want a fantasy country back from the forces of liberal elite, media, WEF, EU, immigrants, whatever you're having yourself. Watch Brexiters in UK, Unionists, right wingers, Catholic Church cheer this result.
The wordings were very weak. They ignored the Citizens Assembly . There was no pre legislative scrutiny in the Dail. The Government will now have to look seriously into disability respite and funding. It was a good day for democracy.

The family one was clear: "The State recognises the Family, whether founded on marriage or on other durable relationships" instead of "The State pledges itself to guard with special care the institution of Marriage, on which the Family is founded."

That is some kick in the teeth to an unmarried mother who has worked hard all her life to raise her children. Even if wording was weak, it was still better than what we kept.

Define "durable relationships"

Define "Family"?

For most, any mother and child in a lasting relationship is a family. But in context of Irish constitution, it's a married mother and child. You know we once sent the unmarried mothers to homes, sold their babies, to keep up this fiction.

And so this attacking the "durable relationships" to mean Mohammed bringing in his 10 wives to Ireland when in real world over 40% of Irish children are born out of wedlock was shitty. And Irish people pleading ignorance - sure that could he Mohammed and his ten wives or the live in girlfriend claiming the farm.

Meaning is context dependent. In context of Irish constitution, it was clear what durable relationships meant.

A sitting government minister (Neale Richmond) said on TV-that a Yes vote in the Family referendum would have "serious consequences" for immigration law.

The issue was not the removal of the two "backward clauses" from the constitution. The issue was their replacement with a vague and undefinable definition that would open the door to all sorts of unintended consequences
#9
So the govt (and other major political parties) and their lackeys in the taxpayer funded NGOs had their @r$es handed to them

Cant wait for the local elections

I wonder if you would be considered far right for questioning these charges

It's so outrageous I can't believe it's true, but time will tell

Quote from: seafoid on February 13, 2024, 07:00:15 PMThe far right agenda is very similar to that in other countries so it is more than likely to be some sort of astroturfing. They are all anti immigrant, anti climate action, pro Russia, never fix anything, provactive, expert in fearmongering.

So is a person objecting to a direct provision facility next to their house far right?

Quote from: Eire90 on February 13, 2024, 04:26:37 PMThe rise of the far right in ireland is partly to blame on dissident republicans and inla types they seem to be too terrified to go after them

I think we had this discussion before

So someone who disagrees with you on immigration is "far right" and you're expressing disappointment that paramilitaries don't seriously assault or kill them

Do I have that right?

Quote from: Rossfan on February 13, 2024, 02:47:21 PMYes they really do need to find the arsonist scum and enforce the Law on the cnuts.

Completely agree

Enfore the laws as they are written (on both Irish Arsonists and Immigration Scammers)
#14
If loopholes do exist after the referendum (relating to the definition of a family) I would have zero confidence that the government will step in and close them

It's a lot easier to start virtue signaling and calling people far right than actually doing your job and enforcing the law

The border mess is 100% on this administration and the people most impacted are the Democrats own supporters

Here in Boston, the State has commandeered a community center in a the poorest neighborhood in the city and turned it into a shelter. The locals are going ballistic

Just because Trump is a d1ckh34d doesn't mean he was wrong about everything
