How the Irish media interviews Mary Lou…

Its called Sealioning, constantly bringing up something insincerely inorder to stop people from discussing actual real world issues that affect us today

Fascinating word. What is its origin?

It’s called baggage Joe , and why wouldn’t we ask about the murdering of members of Gardai by your SF buddies

It’s a free country ask away

Imagine asking questions about criminal activity by the members of her Party. Shocking.

Yeah it is stupid to ask Mary Lou if she condemns IRA bombings, murdering, maimining, kidnapping, kneecapping..... She already made it clear she believes it justified.

2022 Provisional Data that Joe or Sinn Fein won’t talk about - Government surplus €8.0 billion - 1.6% of GDP - Revenue increased by €16.6 billion (16.8%) while expenditure rose by €1.8 billion (1.7%) - Debt ratio decreased to 44.7% of GDP  - Gross debt fell by €11.3 billion

Straw man comparison as @JoeBrolly1993 displays his excellent barrister skills again. The Provos existed and they were responsible for atrocities actions. It’s entirely reasonable for the press to query her on them but I agree some of the criticisms are wearisome at this point.

You miss the point. It is used as a device to avoid the real issues & to demonise her - homelessness, inequality, unaffordable housing, tax breaks to the vulture funds buying up anything of value, erosion of public services? Q. Do you condemn the Kingsmill Massacre?

I started listening to the podcast today, here in Western Australia. Love it.

Whereabouts are you Peggy?
