For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Sex Sells. It Always Has. And the Ad Industry Has Finally Remembered That Sat Aug 02, 2025 19:18 | Lee Taylor
Sex sells, says Lee Taylor, and that is something many brands, caught up in the joyless theatre of modern virtue-signalling, could well stand to relearn.

He's joined forces with Finland to fight the new European Food Safety agency who've been giving Parmalat (a dairy based italian concern) a bad time.

i haven't voted, but I have been reading playboy, i am still troubled by impure thoughts....
its been some time since my last confession, I haven't voted but I have read playboy...
http://www.indymedia.ie/newswire.php?story_id=70263
only 18.7% on average of the electorate voted yesterday with highest participation in the north, Trieste, Bologna over 34% lowest in the the south, Calabria as low as 7% both Sicily and Sardinia averaging 11%
The man in the illustration above called for abstention.
& Mr B. went to porto rotondo, his lair on sardinia and has not been seen leaving. But i'm sure he has tunnels. But he's too far from his ballot box.
The Italians goto poll in a referendum to change the law on stem cell research and artifical insemination.
And what's interesting is they will poll two days in a row the 12th and 13th.
Yesterday I made reference to the Swiss poll for Schengen which was only open a few hours, and suggested that all polls could be opened longer.
Now the Italians think "eggies" are so important that the polls ought be left open longer than usual, so that their ma and da will get off their apathetics and shamed into exercising the suffrage the second day.
& this makes perfect sense, and ought be the model for all democratic polls everywhere.

The man in the photo is Papa Ratzi, the german shepherd, formally known as God's Rotweiller,
the Bishop of Rome, the bavarian pontiff, he speaks 10 languages including latin, and plays the piano, we've lots in common except he's celibate and i'm not, i'm abit more "live augustine's youthful CV and you might merit the noteworthy intellect" anyway, Benedict XVI is telling all italians to vote No! he in contrast has told them to abstain from the Euro-vote. B.XVI has brought to his pontificacy some of the same tactics which marked his curia days, he does a lot on the "qt", and I'm noticing his "qt" turn up in lots of distant places, why he's following me around. I suppose that's good for my indulgences. I'm not telling any italians how to vote on the "fertilisation eggie thing" except that all to often the neo-liberal capitalist world present scientific advances as rational products of innovation and offering humanity new and miraculous cures to the plights of growing old, infirm &c. yet to date, with the exception of vaccines (for the rich world alone) , these benefits have not been made freely available to the majority of the poor, these advances and therapies are therefore for the comfort of the rich and those with a stake in the capitalist system.
So i'd say "abstain" on the italian eggies thing, we don't want a world of cloned mortgage payers.

I'm not reading playboy.
Berlusconi,
Mr B.......
He's phoned his president, 24 hours late, and in reports published this morning has finally officially distanced himself from the kite flying on the Euro.
Mr B, may have billions of lira tucked away under his dirty mattresses, but he doesn't want to clean them.
& Mr B. is now calling on all the little flag wavers and kite flyers of Italian politics to come together "right now" "over me", "must be good-looking coz he's so hard to see", and show "Solidarity" with sickmen and playboys of Europe alike. I think this means that Mr B. is not going to put spanners in the "sort out the Europe mess", which he could if he wanted.
anyway, this is one pot on the boil more updates/links soon, (we now have "france sorts out the unemployed to save europe of the ordinary people" and "italy leads the way on thrashing the single currency for the mafia".)

has called for Italy to withdraw from the single european currency thing, and bring back the Lira.
This is weekend shite. Berlusconi has rejeced the idea his cohort other minister Fini says its not happening, and it amounts to little more than "party politics flag waving" ( kite flying we call it in Hogworts)
http://www.rainews24.it/Notizia.asp?NewsID=54763
But it's putting a cat amongst the pigeons of the centre left and the "casa del libertà" which is where we want the cat, my friends. & I'll tell you why, as they all run around trying to salvage the mess, they show us more clearly than for almost two years, how little they trust or even like each other.
They're all at it, for each of these national parties of the centre that showed a "united front" to sell yet another mythical €uropean project, play local and european games with each other.
It was one of the first things to smell - centre left, centre right, liberal, neofascist, christian democrat &c from the atlantic to the urinal all telling us to vote "yes" or more tellingly "you don't need to vote @ all".
Thus we see Schroeder flap flap, playing the big man, oh so soon after his election dishing, meeting Bertie, Chirac, ZP and *ahem* suggesting a strategy based on the "core members" - those richer than average states who gave Ireland and Spain all that lovely money to install our trams and deal with the money laundering by giving us nice new clean euros-
But Mr B (berlusconi) and Mr Balkenending have said no - bad blood to you schroeder they've said.
- Do you see how petty the big boys of €urope really are now?
The Germans would have got a very deal out of the Valerie Giscard d'Estaing €U constitution (version mark 1.1) it gave them population rated voting, they're the biggest population, it gave them a quasi-imperialist *ahem* living space free market to the east and south east, which pleased the austrians as well. Which is why they ratified the deal without voting.
Anyway they will all go on waving their little flags,
showing us their division, and so for the next few weeks, this is part of extended opinion polling activity. And the penny/lira/pfennig has dropped in all the parties of the centre, that they progressively placed a bigger and bigger bet on the table, and you know something?
The casino always wins.

Romano Prodi, has sent his fellow party members, and citizens of Italy a message to reassure them that everything is ok, and he's the best leader for them.
There's a few problems among the Ulivo and Unione, and they follow up the recent local / municipal election collapse of the government coalition (led by Mr B).
Lots of people don't believe him.
They don't believe mr B either.
Lots of ordinary people who aren't on holidays in Crete, (where mr Prodi is) are asking why can't they have or indeed plan a proper left government that doesn't go into coalition with neo-liberalism all the time, then they remember Pius XII.
Anyway, what makes this message of "I'm alright Jack" special and front page news in Italy is that has been communicated to the oiks by internet!
This marks a new departure, no prominent Italian politician has ever chosen to make statements over the internet before, usually they're on the radio, or the telly, or sitting down to a milky coffee with a journalist, but is a sure sign, that they're getting to grips with the technology.
If this emerges as a new "fad" it could signal a drop in the employment possibilities offered by free market media to the "ribbid ribbid" types.
