What club ?

Shame on Obama.

Go on ......

No appetite in changing gun law, has had one term and didn't, won't do it in his second term. Over 900,000 shot in US this year, pretty sure that number would be lower if the legislation was changed. Really simple.

Shame on Obama.

Danny Morrisson sent this out in a email in the context of Unionist claims about threats to their Britishness. Excellent piece

"About fifteen years ago I wrote a piece for the Andersonstown News in reaction to a BBC report. Here is an extract, quite apposite given the recent protests about the imminent demise of our Britishness:"

According to the BBC the people of Iraq are being brainwashed. No matter where they turn in Baghdad there are reminders of President Saddam Hussein on every street corner; there are Saddam Avenues and Crescents, Hussein Parks and Drives.

A new board game, folks. Tiddlywinks, played on a map of Belfast. Four can play. North, South, East and West. Each of you have to get your four tiddlies into Royal Avenue without being brainwashed. You can't use the Queen Elizabeth Bridge, the Queen's Bridge, the Albert Bridge, the King's Bridge, Victoria Street, Prince's Street, Queen Street, King Street, Albert Street, the grounds of the Royal Victoria Hospital, a helicopter from the Kings Hall, Lower Windsor Avenue, the fields behind the Royal Academy. Nor can you be disguised as a prostitute from the Albert Clock, a student from Queen's, a worker with Royal Mail, a violinist with the Royal School of Music, a Queen's Counsel, a member of the Royal Ulster Constabulary, a screw of Her Majesty's Prison Service, a soldier with Her Majesty's armed forces, a Crown Court judge. Nor by boat up Victoria Channel to Albert Quay, Victoria Wharf or Alexandra Jetty. You must use the Queen's English on the Queen's Highway or else you'll be in breach of the Queen's Peace.

Not easy, is it!

SF lackey thinks another SF lackey has written an "excellent piece" shocker !

Alliance want Stormont reconvened tomorrow but Sinn Fein and DUP want to wait until Monday, a few photos with Hilary Clinton more important it seems. Nothing will stop the ego maniacs in Stormont having their day in the sun.

Shinners always yapping about other parties and politicians wasting money, tax payer suffering blah blah, not a word on the expected £400k bill for the tax payer from the discrimination tribunal.

Always yapping yourself ffs change the record you gurn

Didnt think you would want to talk about this episode, hardly surprising. You are quick enough with the cut and paste with SF statements any other time, loyal little lackey that you are.

Sure when you get an answer you can't respond to,you run off like the rest of you cronies do.Away and get them Shinners to change the weather as it's very cold.

Yea that was a real show stopper from you there. So it wasn't Sinn Feins fault the tax payer has a £400,000 tab ?

Heard that the U-14 development squads are doing strength and conditioning/weights, at that age? What sort of muppets are in charge of these squads?

I see St Galls keeper Chris Kerr made a bit of a dick out of himself on the Twitter after the match and has now protected his account so that nobody can see it.

Hamas kills six suspected Israel collaborators

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Masked gunmen publicly shot dead six suspected collaborators with Israel in a large Gaza City intersection Tuesday, witnesses said. An Associated Press reporter saw a mob surrounding five of the bloodied corpses shortly after the killing.
Some in the crowd stomped and spit on the bodies. A sixth corpse was tied to a motorcycle and dragged through the streets as people screamed, "Spy! Spy!"
The Hamas military wing, Izzedine al-Qassam, claimed responsibility in a large handwritten note attached to a nearby electricity pole. Hamas said the six were killed because they gave Israel information about fighters and rocket launching sites.
The killing came on the seventh day of an Israeli military offensive that has killed more than 120 Palestinians, both militants and civilians. Israel has launched hundreds of airstrikes, targeting rocket launching sites, weapons caches and homes of Hamas activists, as Palestinians fired hundreds of rockets at Israel.
Israel relies on a network of local informers to identify its targets in Gaza.
The six were killed on Tuesday afternoon in Gaza City's Sheik Radwan neighborhood.
Witnesses said a van stopped in the intersection, and four masked men pushed the six suspected informers out of the vehicle. Salim Mahmoud, 18, said the gunmen ordered the six to lie face down in the street and then shot them dead. Another witness, 13-year-old Mokhmen al-Gazhali, said the informers were killed one by one, as he mimicked the sound of gunfire.
They said only a few people were in the street at first – most Gazans have been staying indoors because of the Israeli airstrikes – but the crowd quickly grew after the killings. Eventually several hundred men pushed and shoved to get a close look at the bodies, lying in a jumble on the ground. One man spit at the corpses, another kicked the head of one of the dead men.
"They should have been killed in a more brutal fashion so others don't even think about working with the occupation (Israel)," said one of the bystanders, 24-year-old Ashraf Maher.
One body was then tied by a cable to the back of a motorcycle and dragged through the streets. A number of gunmen on motorcycles rode along as the body was pulled past a house of mourning for victims of an Israeli airstrike.
There is broad consensus among Palestinians that informers for Israel deserve harsh punishment, and it is rare to hear someone speak out against killings of alleged collaborators. Such public killings been carried out in the West Bank and Gaza since the first uprising against Israeli occupation in the late 1980s.
In Israel's last major Gaza offensive four years ago, 17 suspected collaborators who fled after their prisons were hit in airstrikes were later shot dead in extra-judicial killings.
During the current offensive, Tuesday's killings brought to eight the number of suspected informers being shot dead in public. On Friday, the body of one alleged informer was found in a garbage bin, and another was shot dead in the street. Hamas claimed responsibility for both killings.
Since seizing Gaza in 2007, Hamas has executed four informers by firing squad, and about a dozen more are on death row in Gaza.

I wonder will ONeill still try and convince us that Galls would beat Cross if both teams had all their players fit.

[capable of gracing any county team]

Eddie McCloskey has been the best player in Antrim this year by a mile. He's starting to mature into a class player capable of gracing any county team.

Good player, but that just isn't true, doesent matter how often you say it.

Sinn Fein voted against opening a book of condolence in Dungannon council for David Black.

Yes, it seems that this act - would you call it "unchristian"? - is being ignored.

I commented on it yesterday but my post was removed. Not sure why.

Sinn Fein voted against it as the council had a policy to only open a book of condolence for a person who had died and was from the council area.

Yes they have always been sticklers for procedure. Do they seriously expect people to believe this shit ?
