Hate attacks increase over here. Whatever happened to "Ireland of the thousand welcomes"?

Man pleads guilty to murdering his wife after video found on his phone.

Well, it's not like he could deny it any longer, now is it?

Kilbarrack: that's just down the road from me.

Only in Ireland eh? And Holland, apparently.  Try that around where I live you're liable to be run over by buses and big trucks!

the best thing ever to come out of Ireland is the hilarious show Father Ted.   its easily findable on you tube. 

[Trollheart]

Uh, wrong. I'm the best thing to come out of Ireland. 

Also Rory Gallagher, U2, Thin Lizzy, same-sex marriage (first in the world dudes), Jedward... um. Ah. Well.


Oh, and all our immigrants that built your country for you!

Yeah, Sinn Fein want him to go on about Gaza and Ukraine, but we all know he won't. In fairness, with a loose cannon like Trump it's probably best just to kiss the ring and thank fuck you manage to get out of there alive. We don't need him as an enemy, though the idea of inviting the fat fascist fucker to our fair, um, can't think of another word beginning with f, is repugnant. Hopefully he'll say "Where the fuck is Ireland?" and leave it at that. May he choke on a golf ball.

I just saw on TV that in the run up to St Patrick's day they have installed a big round portal in NYC and another in Dublin so people can look at and talk to each other in real time.  Mostly its being used to shake booties in each others faces.
