Making Sense of Trump?s Tariffs Fri May 02, 2025 13:00 | Ramesh Thakur
There's method in Trump's tariff madness, says Ramesh Thakur. Uniting his America First, anti-Net Zero and anti-DEI policies is an imperative to untangle the US from strategic dependence on an ascendant China.

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of England is welcome to Ireland and hopefully she will lay a wreath at the GPO and Arbour Hill and the Garden of Rememberance before laying a wreath at the Irish National War Memorial Gardens to the dead of the Great War.
I think that would be a beautiful gesture of reconciliation between the two nations of the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
That would draw a line under the 800 years of conflict between Ireland and Britain.
"There is a pub called 'The Prince of Wales' at 45 Great Queen Street, presumably named after the future George IV who was the Grand Master of the Freemasons in 1809".

Where was RSF when the Mayor of Cork arranged his recent pageant for the British Army at Cork City hall ?
jaysus Jim, ya love your wreaths.
Jim, unless Ireland has recently turned into a dictatorship - I'm pretty sure you don't speak on behalf of the people of Ireland. I for one see no need for an irrelevant person, who stands for imperialism and who soaks up a vast wealth which could be otherwise distributed to the homeless in Britain to come to Ireland.
I'm personally not a fan of RSF - But I'm with them on this. I'm not going to spend our tax for to welcome members of the Royal family to Ireland. Especially not when we can't afford 10 million for cancer vaccines.
.....she'll be 'Gunning' for you and those like you , Jim -
- as I believe your particular brand of gombeenism is in short supply in this State!
Thanks!
Sharon.
"Come out , Jim , ya Bowsie , and pay proper homage...!"
As a member of Sinn fein I realise that if we are to reach out to unionests then we must accept their cultuire and that includes her magesty the queen. times have changed execpt it ffs.
I suppose its far better to wage a bloody pointless war that couldn't be won.
Those who oppose Brit royalty visiting must see some "signifigance" in Royalty.
To me they are ordinary people with titles and airs and graces!
They are just a relic of a bygone age.
They can visit here if they like.
"Indifference is the deepest form of contempt."
Pat,
You have just converted me.
I am an Irish socialist Republican and I am always open to the arguments of others.
I don't CARE if they want to visit Ireland. Let them. But we also have a right to protest and to highlight the continued British occupation of the island of Ireland. The Royal visits are part of a wider policy of normalisation that cannot be allowed to continue.
