I was sure I heard Gordon Brown whisper “Tiocfaidh a la” recently.

I’d suggest lee look into Irish nationalism as a convenient way to lessen the strain on his pocketbook.

I had personally secured the agreement of almost all other heads of government to this proposal. The instant reaction demonstrated how little unionist sentiment she shared: “What! More money for these people? Look at their roads! Look at their schools! I need that money for my people!”

The approach in Brussels was instantly cancelled, and Northern Ireland lost what might have been several hundred million pounds in aid.

Silence, colonialist! Don’t you feel any sensitivity to this historic occasion as Orange and Green settle their differences, moving on from horror and pain in a common goal of fleecing the UK Treasury.

The ghosts of the 1847 famine victims and republican martyrs like Wolfe Tone cry out for justice in the form of heroic blows against Imperialism by doing the double, selling red diesel with the dye removed, larger Sports Centers, and nice wee jobs in Stormont (whose cafeteria in the aim of sectarian unity should be called the Bobby Sands Memorial Dining Suite, with the George Seawright Memorial Hygenic Incinerator nearby for food waste).

And don’t you go trying collecting VAT in South Armagh, either.

Speaking as an evil Brit oppressor, when can we stop paying for this?

Actually, it seemed the reverse to me: in the papers, both Paisley and Adams were making such similar comments to the press about Norn Iron needing more dough to make the settlement work and saying that NIO had given them assurances that Treasury would not stand in the way, that it felt almost choreographed. (Damn those Evil Brit Oppressors, with their enormous subsidies!)

Freestater, I grew up in housing estates with three-foot high graffiti saying ‘informers will be shot’. I don’t need lectures from you.

“And several now further to the right than even the “Lefty” Hitchens; Eoghan Harris (once he’d finished David Trimble off)”

I guess the feud in the 1970s and the Provies’ armed campaign ‘til the mid-1990s is OK then, ‘cos a Sindo editor went neocon.

Seeing as you have an article from Searchlight on your own blog about a neo-fascist, who was a member of the Sinn Fein executive as recently as 2003, trying to infiltrate the AoH, I fail to see how Eoghan Harris’s random walks form a post-hoc justification for Ruairi O’Bradaigh and Joe Cahill forming the Provies.

It’s great that the bombings have stopped, but it’s nothing to cheer about.

…ah, yes, that “most useful” group to the British during the Dirty War. And several now further to the right than even the “Lefty” Hitchens; Eoghan Harris (once he’d finished David Trimble off) was/is an advisor of some sorts to Adhmed Chalabi, if Phoenix Magazine is correct.

From your mouth to G-d’s ears!

as we Irish say.

Maria, thanks for the news. Reading it, I “came all over queer.” Goose bumps, verge of tears, etc. Heh Heh. It passed quickly, but still, I’m a third generation Irish-American, for goodness sake. Tom, you’re not right in the head!
