"Yes, ruling by fooling, is a great British art with great Irish fools to practice on." ~ James Connolly~
The new despot regime that exists in the statelet of Norn Irony is finally starting to sink in with grass roots Republicans, and not not before time!! Selective Internment based on trumped up charges, RUC/PSNI 'Stop and Search' on nationalist streets etc etc are been cunningly given the green light. 99 and counting, aptly named peace walls blight the landscape. The gulf between the working classes has grown wider, yet we see millions squandered on the Titanic building in a vain attempt to create a mirage of a psuedo normality.i.e. try and create an identity for this non-entity.... Th PSF/DUP coalition do Whitehall's bidding when it cmes to doling out the saxon shilling, and will soon introduce unprecedented cuts and reforms which will inevitably widen the glass gulf even further... We have developed into a society void of principles or morals and immune to the suffering of our fellow countrymen/women.. cocooned in our big brother society... and all for what? to maintain an illegitimate Statelet which without outside interference and propping up is both economically or democratically self-sufficient..'The only peace strategy that will resolve the cause of conflict in Ireland is the strategy that challenges Britain's illegal claim in Ireland. The numerous failed strategies over the decades are testament to this fact.' ~ Bernadette Sands-McKevitt ~

I read "All Souls" By Michael Patrick McDonald. It tells the story of us Guys in Southie and Dorchester as well. It tells the story of growing up poor and marginalized.

This story is also the narrative of those who grew up marginalized in Northern Ireland.

The lyrics from Christy Moore's song "No time for Love" are also the narrative for those who stand up for the poor and marginalized. Those who have the balls to challenge authority.

" You call it the law, we call it apartheid, internment, conscription, partition and silence."

"It's the law that they make to keep you and me where they think we belong."
