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.

When a man in Dublin stabs a police officer while shouting "Allahu Akbar" you can be pretty sure it's not the work of an indigenous Irishman. So why are the media at pains to pretend it is, asks Andrew Devine.

Who is really progressive in Northern Ireland?

category national | anti-capitalism | other press author Thursday May 22, 2008 18:43author by Johannes Wilmauthor email j at indymedia dot noauthor address Calle de las Poetas, Calle Central, León, Nicaraguaauthor phone +5059173717 Report this post to the editors

On a recent trip to Belfast/Northern Ireland I wanted to find out who is really to be accepted as being a progressive force up there. The Left has generally supported those pro-catholics, who are working for a united Ireland as a part of a national liberation struggle from London rule. I decided to interview representatives of progressive parties on either side on the issues that socialists should really care about -- social issues -- to see how different they really are in their day-to-day politics in these current times of peace.

So far I've written the first two parts -- interviews with Paul Maskey of Sinn Fein ( http://johanneswilm.org/index.php/item/155 ) and Hugh Smyth of the Progressive Unionist Party ( http://johanneswilm.org/index.php/item/152 ). You can go read the interviews for yourself, but so far no conclusion has been drawn.

That will happen tomorrow, in my third installment on Northern Irish politics, on http://www.johanneswilm.org.
