Wasn't there a loyalist hunger strike?.......think it lasted until lunch time

Keady makes Larne look like Dallas

Taking the O out of Country Show!

You will all still vote them in again!!! 

Stormont is a sick joke....jobs for the boys...that's all it is....nice we carve up.....in the full knowledge that people will continue to vote along tribal lines come election time... That's why my electoral papers helped light the fire

Seems to me that your problem isn't so much stormont, as it is those who vote. The power sharing arrangements at stormont are what the vast majority of people in Ireland voted for in 1998 and those sitting in it under those terms are those who were voted in to do so. It ain't perfect but that's how it goes. As far as I'm concerned therefor, if you don't vote, you lose the right to complain.

Peter Robinson's rant the other day was like something out of Fawlty Towers....but the really sad part is that no one from the Nationalist side challenged him.....now imagine if David Cameron stood up in the house of commons and berated Milliband for selling land to "niggers".....outcry...you can bet your life on it.....but in this cesspit we call home don't rock the boat

"During Question Time today Peter Robinson, in response to Jim Allister, rounded on the TUV MLA asking him to explain how  "secretly, and outside of the House, the Member, as the executor of a will, is selling land to republicans in County Fermanagh to benefit his own family." I don't know if these allegations are true or not but such comments were wholly unacceptable for the First Minster to make. This is an office that is designed to represent everyone. However the tone of Peter Robinsons remarks are essentially a signal that it is not OK to sell land to Catholics. Peter Robinson needs to explain his comments. If this is the focus of Unionists to score points over one another it is clearly espousing a sectarian agenda." Sean Lynch MLA

Glad someone is challenging Robinson over his comments. Where did he say this? Was it at Stormont...if not then why not?
No point in being an elected representative if you are not going to challenge these dinosaurs at Stormont.
Unfortunately there is no real alternative when it comes to voting....I live in hope that someone somewhere is going to stand for real issues that affect everyday life....jobs, health, education etc.........I believe Stormont has passed just one piece of legislation since it was re-formed....very important ....plastic bag levy!

A Dream Deferred

by Langston Hughes

Langston Hughes homepage





What happens to a dream deferred?


Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore--
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over--
like a syrupy sweet?


Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.


Or does it explode?

Never give up Mayo!!

Okay, here's the video.  This won't play on mobile platforms, this is expected.  In the coming weeks there'll be an extended edition with more footage and interviews, and it will play on mobile devices.  In the meantime, turn up the volume, sit back and enjoy!

Congratulations to all involved, good to see Joe D still involved with San Francisco.

We have all had bad days on the course....Italian Open...fair play to him for returning his card...mine would have been in nearest bin

145 STUMPO (AM), Chad* +22 18 +22 94 - - - 94

Chad Stumpo (is that his real name?) was playing with David Dixon +3, and Mikael Lundberg +5

Afterwards in an interview with Sky Sports, David and Mikael said "Jeez, it was like playing with Jim Stynes"

His second round was an eleven shot improvement at 83....hope for us all!!

Youve pretty much captured his argumentation technique.

Problem is he believes everything he thinks you've said so ...the mans impossible to converse with.

An asshole

I will allow you one chance to retract that statement

So you equate me calling you an asshole , to you calling me provo scum......you are a COWARD!

[provo scum]

I can see why you resort to these petty insults. Your lightweight intellect prevents you from adding anything of substance to the debate .

Tell me does the sanctimonious shite you spout smell?
You would know more about fish suppers! 

The grown ups are making some progress now so you really should f*k off as you add nothing. I don't think you have made a contribution of any substance.

As I said you would know more about fish suppers

Saw this and thought of you Sheehy.....

Not surprising you have a thing against guards given that you are provo scum.
btw, forgot to ask you, what were you doing in Riyadh during gulf war 1 ?
