offsite link The Faux-Radicalism of Kneecap Wed Apr 30, 2025 19:00 | Andrew Doyle
Kneecap's vocal support for Hamas and call for fans to murder Tory MPs is obviously reprehensible. But it's just for show, says Andrew Doyle. The police shouldn't waste their time investigating rappers.

Every year a new Carnival Queen is elected amongst thousands of participants. The election takes place in the city of Gualeguaychu where the biggest carnival celebrations in the southern cone take place. Evangelina Carrozzo was elected Queen in February.

"Being Queen of Carnival means a lot more than just a dancing beauty contest. Being Queen of Carnival in Gualeguaychu means that I represent the Uruguay river... I speak for our people and the nature around us. I am entirely qualified to demand to any Head of State that they protect our environment”, said Miss Carrozzo.

[....]

Greenpeace demands a clean production plan for the industry in the region that includes the total elimination of all chlorine compounds in the bleaching process as well as the relocation of these new pulp mills far away from any urban centre.

This one is almost as good as the "mafia handshake papal funeral". But not quite...

So Bertie got Chavez. - where's the baseball bat or sliothar?
Angela got Chile's super capitalist approved President Bachelat.
Chirac got plucky little Mister Morales.
Lula & Kirchner shared the Wolfgang Schlussel.
No one bothered including President Uribe of Colombia in the photo,
perhaps he was in the toilets cutting up the 47 lines?

& of course Greenpeace got the blame for sending in the carnival girley. very politically correct.

not [ I repeat] not as good as the "mafia handshake papal funeral moments - go on remind yourselves - the lovely moment the Israeli and Iranian presidents (born in the same town said "its cool - its show business - how's your business? - who's your man in the gold dress? oh he's the black pope? wow. do you read Dan Brown? yep love him. I notice Steven Hawkins isn't here...." http://indymedia.ie/article/69302 )
