A San Andreas Faultline has appeared in British politics, and it might seem that the tectonic plates will swallow the Tory Party whole. They won’t of course; the first past the post system probably won’t permit that, but the party has just had its Dunkirk. It’s not just that Sunak didn’t fully grasp the importance of D-Day to the British mindset. Quite as significantly, neither did his counsellors or the media, who all knew his schedule but since they all inhabit the rancid Westminster bubble, they said nothing in advance. So Hein Severloh, the German cook-cum-machine-gunner who claimed to have shot a thousand Americans that day on Omaha Beach, has bagged his final victim; Sunak’s prime ministerial career.
On those other beaches, June, Sword and Gold, one thousand British soldiers died on D-Day, and another thousand over the next six days, and another over the next six days, and so on for two months, a sort of Somme-sur-Mer, yet nobody in Westminster had a clue,

We are in desperate need of a Farage type figure in Ireland to lead us out of the EU.
Or at the very least not to be so willing constantly on all fours, gagged, tied, ready and lubed like our treasonous gimps.
JOIN THE CAMPAIGN TO STOP THE EU MIGRATION AND ASYLUM PACT ACT NOW! Join the campaign by Senior Counsel and Barrister Una McGurk by sending a submission to TDs to DEMAND that any process to opt-in by the government is HALTED until the AG’s Advice is published on the ramifications of opting in and the impact on our natural rights and Constitutional Sovereignty, and an open, transparent national debate takes place on the requirement for a Referendum:
Dear (insert details of TD/Senator) Re: EU Migration and Asylum Pact As a member of Dáil Éireann and an elected representative of the people of Ireland, you have a duty to ensure that the government does not attempt to seek approval of both Houses of the Oireachtas under Protocol 21 annexed to the TEU and TFEU without firstly publishing the Attorney General’s Advice and having an open, transparent national debate on the ramifications of the Pact on our indefeasible rights and Constitutional Sovereignty, and the question of the necessity for a People’s Referendum. The Asylum Migration and Management Regulation (AMMR) is one of the 5 legislative files that constitute the Pact. The AMMR overrides our sovereignty, enshrined in Art. 6.1 and Art. 15.2.1 of our Constitution, as it surrenders power to the EU Commission to determine how many relocated asylum seeker applicants from countries under ‘migratory pressure’ Ireland must receive or, as an alternative, the minimum amount of financial contribution per asylum seeker applicant annually. The formula used for the distribution of relocated asylum seeker applicants pursuant to Art. 44R of the AMMR means that Ireland will be required to accept more relocated quotas than most other EU Member States due to our overinflated GDP as a result of the presence of multinational corporations. The impact of relocated quotas on Ireland’s future could be monumental, as the EU Commission can increase the numbers of asylum seeker applicants at any time if a country is considered to be under significant migratory pressure. In Italy alone, in 2023 there were 157,000 asylum seeker rescue by sea operations which demonstrates that the AMMR could have fundamental ramifications on our country, borders and people, particularly as we are already experiencing a massive influ of international protection applicants into Ireland. This also impacts our right to determine our own local governance, given the voting rights being unlawfully granted to applicants by government. If Ireland opts in to the Pact, we are subject to infringement proceedings if we do not comply with relocated quotas. In the CJEU judgement in the European Commission cases v Poland, Hungary and Czech Republic it was held that there had been an infringement of EU Community law obligations by the refusal of the 3 Member States to comply with EU Council decisions adopted in 2015 to relocate 160,000 asylum seeker applicants from Italy and Greece over a 2 year period. It is noteworthy that although Ireland opted-in to EU 2015/1523 and EU 2015/1601 and pledged 4,000 relocations the provisions were temporary in nature and it was up to Member States to indicate the number of applicants that could be relocated to their territory. The AMMR provisions involve a significant transfer of sovereignty to the EU, which is unconstitutional. Supremacy of EU Community law under the “necessitated obligations” Clause, enshrined at Art. 29.4.6 of our Constitution, does not apply to the Pact provisions, which are open to Constitutional challenge because Ireland is not bound by EU asylum and immigration law by virtue of its EU membership at Protocol 21 annexed to the TEU and TFEU. The AMMR provisions transfer our sovereignty to the EU Commission. Full consideration must be given to Crotty v An Taoiseach [1987] and Pringle v Ireland [2012] on the requirement for a Referendum before the approval of both Houses of the Oireachtas can be sought. Yours etc Signed #IrelandOptsOut

I would like to join the campaign but I feel it will fall on deaf ears as the main political parties are emboldened by their election results, even if it didn’t all go their way they would have you believe that it did. I have sent many emails and letters to my local representative and never had any response.
Una MC Gurk is a barrister, she knows the laws and constitution inside out, why doesn’t she take a case against this rudderless government on behalf of the Irish people, maybe we could help by making some kind of donations to fund such a case, I personally think that would have a better impact, And I would be willing to make a donation for the cause.
What a repulsive mental image that comment brings to mind. Of course there are some at the cabinet table for whom this type of thing is considered a quiet night home.
Yes, indeed! Another guy, who could replace the globalist Labour Party, but with real socialist values is the part-Irish George Galloway. Strangely enough, there is the thought that ‘real’ left and right could come together and form an alliance to defeat the globalists. In the UK, there a campaign against Galloway, to cut him completely out of the public eye! Including in all the polls! This shows the control they have! He is fielding over 170 candidates and is excluded from all debates. Even the electoral maps of the pollsters show his seat Rochdale as a labour seat and saying it is a sure seat for labour in on July 4th. The UK have long lost the right to call themselves a democracy! If they are prepared to do this, then they will probably also be fixing the election to get their desired result… What’s the difference between rigging and election, before or after the vote is cast? I think the pollsters are counting the Worker’s Party % with Labour’s result. It will also be somewhere between 5 and 10%, I think!
People who detest Nigel Farage always fail to acknowledge one thing .
He saved the UK from a going down a very dark route where it was already headed.
So much anger had built up in the UK that it was a pressure cooker ready to explode.
The people who were suffering had no voice. They were looked down on , scorned , silenced and treated with contempt by the elite.
Nigel Farage gave them a voice , a political route to express their anger . It was Nigel Farage , and not any of the mainstream parties, that was responsible for the demise of the BNP. The mainstream parties were directly responsible for the rise of the BNP. Nigel Farage showed the people that there was a middle way. He showed that the pen was mightier than the sword. In doing so he saved his country from an inevitable eruption .
The UK owe him a debt of gratitude. His opponents will never acknowledge that but it is them , not him , that would have brought chaos to their country . They are either too arrogant, or too dense , or too begrudging to appreciate that.
Offtopic,
But are gript going to cover Luke Flanagan admitting the photo of him with the swastika banner is genuine*** ?
Because no-one else in our media will cover it until you do.

And where did you get that info from?
Phone and laptop at once to downvote, jesus mate you have problems…
Less profanities please. Jesus is Lord !! Thanks in advance. Have a nice Sunday.

Do not use the Lord’s name as a swear word §§§§§
Certainly the best English speaking politician of our times – maybe McDowell is close :
1) Loves his country ,its culture and her people
2) Loves Europe as its being flushed down the toilet by the elite and their lumpen bought off media
3) a true democrat – which is what all the traitors really fear
His success is best explained by the old saying: “in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king”.
Labour will be no. 1 conservatives, no. 2, lib dems no. 3 and probably the Nigel Forage party won’t secure a single seat. More “change” on the horizon.
People have assumed you are a troll. The stupid name does look like it was supposed to be provocative.
But your comments zig-zag across contradictory statements with no real agenda like you’d see with trolls.
I think you are just a lonely clown who is happy to get any sort of attention – even if it’s just being criticised or slagged off, it is better than being ignored like in your day-to-day, offline existence.
Chin- up, Bozo

You use a pseudo-name too. Just focus on the content of the articles, if it comes to exchanging insults you’ll get destroyed…
Didn’t you pretend to be a real muslim at first, and post loads of stuff supporting muslim immigration ?
Why yes, you did.
Then went anti immigration.
The only thing you’ve ever destroyed is your keyboard as a result of your other online habits…
A come on Carryonthebuses, don’t be to hard on Dr Ahmed dick head, he has to do something to pass time while living in his parents basement with his inflatable friend.
I wanna help the guy, really.
But the first stage in rehabilitating cases like these has to painful.
Normally, one Uni-Party member (Tories) hands power to the other partner in crime (Labour). But, if the ‘disappeared’ Workers Party grabs 10-15% of the Labour vote… This arrangement won’t work! Look at Galloway’s vote in Rochdale by-election! So this is possible! This will implode the first-past-the-post system. Labour will be the biggest, but with <25%, it won't be enough! We might see a collision between Tories and Labour, which will show up their alligences!
