So Rudi do we ignore the Covid and get on with business as pre 2020 usual and tough luck on those who get it.
The Yanks seemed to start on that road for a while if I recall correctly?
By the way the Brits must be in right trouble with their testing seeing as they asked us could we help them!!

We do this with everything else. Why not Covid?

So after all that not a sniff of a follow up from RTE, Newstalk, Indo, Times, Miriam O Callaghan, Matt Cooper, Ivan Yates and the rest of our media heros. 120 people accused murdered by the British security forces and their chums and nothing.

Yet, prior to the 2020 General Election the Murder of Paul Quinn was brought up and his family used to bash Sinn Fein and that was across the board on all platforms, wall to wall coverage.

So is there anyone out there that is still stupid enough to believe that the mainstream media in this country are anything but corrupt lackies of the powers that be?

Nobody gave a sh*t about Paul Quinn during that whole disgraceful agenda. It was actually vile to see that being played out in public for a particular political end.

Think he said in an Irish News or Gaelic Life interview that's why he took the op, so he could be back for the following year.

Meant in so much - and you could see it at the start of this thread for example.

Life wouldn't be the same again, normality as we knew it was dead....but sure here we are and people are flying out on summer hols (or whatever remains of it) to whatever spot is on the Green List right now.

And the Ulster Final drew 30,000 to Clones in mid June.....

If it went ahead tomorrow and it was passed.....you'd have 30k at it. Would you disagree?

Couple of ones in my work place have been away. One was caught in Croatia....had to do the quarantine because flight home was more expensive than it was worth.

Few been to Greece. Business as usual so they are saying - bar the nightclubs.

Have it recorded but I have been well aware of the Glenanne gang and RUC/UDR/UVFetc collusion.
Hearing families of victims will be interesting as their stories of living with the aftermath have seldom come to the fire.
Some claim Nairac was involved in directing a lot of it.

You could nearly make a film about Nairac, he was an interesting character to say the least. People like this roamed free to create anarchy. Anyone not familiar with this name, he basically encompasses the troubles in the North.

At this stage. we've heard it all....look, this sounds bad but people are desensitised to all now and you can see that in the day to day events.

It's a fair point raised in the video of course but after 8 odd months at this stage of it, basically the reaction to largely 95% of my daily interaction is both in and outside Ireland, "lets get on with it". The major scare tactic at the start of the pandemic was justified of course, but people are now getting numb to it.

Tbh, most people in the South wouldn't be aware of half the sh*t that went on, it's unbelievable stuff

This is sadly true.

Obviously open to correction, but was it not confirmed via his teeth that he died in 1945? Of course that comes from the Russians who have had them ever since.

The consensus does seem to be frampton has been had here though as you say no one will come out of this well.

Frampton getting hammered over his links to MTK / Kinahan by accounts. Looks like they are trying to implode him from the inside rather than actually try and get him deported back to Ireland...on whatever charges.

What about Hitler escaping Germany before the Russians got to him in Berlin.

There was a show called Hunting Hitler, I only watched a few episodes - mostly pie in the sky stuff but they did uncover some interesting things from what I saw.
