Irish Politics Newsletter@tullmcadoo.bsky.social · 2mo agoThis is shocking. At an EU Foreign Affairs Committee meeting, Lynn Boylan lamented that it was “a pity we can’t use our own language.” When it was pointed out that she could, in fact, speak Irish, she backtracked almost instantly: "I wasn’t prepared, so I’ll use English."
The timing of this. Sinn Féin begins disciplinary action against party member. Ms Mhic Lochlainn said Sinn Féin picking Lohan was "an insult to the people of Conamara" because of his lack of fluency in Irish, and that his selection was "shameful". www.rte.ie/news/politic...

www.irishpoliticsnewsletter.ie/p/sinn-fein-... Read my latest about Sinn Féin's latest bout of hypocrisy. In the Dáil, they accuse the Irish government of not doing enough to hold Israel to account, while in Northern Ireland, they quietly endorse a firm that supplies fighter jet parts to Israel.
Pro-Palestine on the Streets, F-35'S between the sheets.

The Social Democrats, are refusing to say if they paid damages to Alan Shatter. Which means if they did, it was you and I paid for their malicious stupidity. If that was any other party they'd on their soapbox demanding transparency.
Sockies TD @garygannontd.bsky.social issues a groveling apology and pays damages to Alan Shatter for wrongly linking him to meeting Jeffery Epstein.
With the news today that Alan Shatter is looking into suing Gary Gannon over his post about Jeffrey Epstein.
