Councillor Martin Connolly

[Maguire01]

Gerry Adams thinks Mr. Connolly is an idiot, apparently.

An 'eejit' in fact.

Just for "clarity" I can assure you that there are plenty of things I disagree with SF on, such as the Draft Public Assemblies Bill but for the most part I happen to agree with their main line of thinking. I make no apology for that.

I remember you admitting that in relation to the DPA Bill, when prompted. Out of interest, what else would you include amongst the 'plenty' of things?

[Myles Na G.]

Can we expect you to start a thread on the release of Torrens Knight now? Or is it only republican "moral bankruptcy" that appalls you?

Oh...It's OK Myles, someone else set up that thread for you I see. You were probably just on your way to the computer to start the thread too!!

Oh I get it...you think because I criticise republicans, I wouldn't be prepared to criticise a loyalist killer? You're a deep political thinker, no doubt about it.

You have little to bother you if that's what interests you! Maybe I should be flattered!

Maybe I do have little to bother me. Maybe i'm just wondering if you're bluffing.

Nally I suppose you wouldn't have been too happy with Martin McGuiness cosying up to Jackie McDonald, William Smith (ex UVF prisoner) and Winkie Rea (ex Red Hand Commando leader) at the West Belfast Feile?

Lads this topic was started to discuss Martin Connolly and it has developed into a 'have a pop at Nally stand thread'. I don't know the lad but jeysus give him a break, ya's are lining up ffs on the most trivial things

As for McGuiness engaging in dialogue rather than 'cosying up' I say fairplay, someone has to bring them in from the cold otherwise what's in it for them

If we are to build a new country then everyone has to feel involved and feel there is something there for them otherwise what's the point

I see the w**kers have been at it again. What the fcuk is wrong with their heads? If anyone is familiar with the lay out of cookstown will know that this went off very close to a nursery. Sooner these people are caught the better.

What crusade? What apology did anybody ask for? Why so sensitive? As I said, I'm just giving you my impression.

There are plenty of people who attack the SDLP, UUP, FF, DUP, FG, Labour, etc. as well, but it's also my impression that nobody pops up here to defend these parties on all occasions when they're criticised or to complain about the criticism.

That's despite the fact that many of these parties would have massively more electoral support than SF and would also be more strongly represented among the general GAA membership. But it's my impression that the demographics of this discussion board don't seem to reflect that. Or else it could be that SF's supporters are just more committed, loyal and unswerving.

He's a big boy. Anyway, if he can/won't answer, he'll just ignore it.
