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.

offsite link Starmer?s Palestinian Pledge Exposes the West?s Moral Collapse Thu Jul 31, 2025 15:05 | Laura Perrins

Lisbon - Same Treaty - Same Answer - No

Public Meeting on Lisbon

Same Treaty
Same Answer
No!

8pm, Tuesday 18 August

Liberty Hall, Eden Quay

Speakers

Joe Higgins MEP, Socialist Party

Bob Crow, General Secretary,
Rail Maritime & Transport Union

Organised by

Say No to Lisbon

(Campaign Against the EU Constitution)

www.SayNo.ie

==============================

Information about RMT General Secretary Bob Crow is at these two links :

==============================

The Rail Maritime and Transport Union proposed this Motion to the recent ICTU Conference -

It can be circulated to Union members.

Link here :
http://www.ictu.ie/bdc09/motions/detail/12461976871110204/

This motion was scheduled for discussion on Friday 10 July, and was formally proposed and seconded.

However, it was remitted to the Congress Executive.

Text :

Motion 67

Congress is appalled that the Viking, Laval, Ruffert and Luxembourg judgments in
the European Court of Justice (ECJ) are a fundamental attack on collective
bargaining and the right to strike.

Congress believes there is an urgent need to campaign strenuously for
restoration of the fundamental human right to strike recognised but overridden
in the ECJ cases.

The unelected judges of the EU using the 'free movement' provisions have
disembowelled the concept of social Europe and undermined the ability of unions
to protect workers.

The Lisbon Treaty would exacerbate these attacks by handing greater powers to
the ECJ to interpret disputes concerning the Charter of Fundamental Rights.

Congress also believes that the ECJ decisions are reflected in the increasingly
neo-liberal policies emanating from the EU which are in turn reflected in the
Lisbon Treaty and Congress therefore agrees to campaign to halt the ratification
of the Lisbon Treaty.

The Guardian wouldn’t include all the toffee-nosed vowels in their report if they were interviewing someone like London’s mayor Boris Johnston , would they? But whenever people from working class backgrounds are interviewed by papers like the Guardian , direct speech is recorded with all the “yeahs” and “nahs” and bad grammar included .

“The Times ran an editorial stating that Crow was class obsessed, and he says for once it was correct. "Yeah, spot on. Dead right they was on that. I am obsessed with workers. I'm not obsessed with bosses….”

At the Guardian they like their workers leaders to look and talk like thuggish east-end gangsters before they promote them - like Simon Hattenstone promotes Crow and his “fascinating politics” in the interview . Why John Meehan should be endorsing the presence of this Stalinist Alf Garnett soundalike at Liberty Hall is beyond me. Stands to reason dunnit ? It’s cos e’s the authentic voice of British working class militancy ,gawd bless ‘im .

Really, here’s why the Guardian is promoting Crow in my opinion . This part of the interview contains the message that the liberal wing of the British establishment , as represented by the Guardian ,no less than the not so liberal wing , needs to put across as our world moves towards war .

“I ask him why nothing seems to scare him. He reaches into a cupboard and brings out his father's war record. "Three medals he got. He was a PE instructor in the army. He went all over the world. He was unemployed in 1939, God's honest truth, and war broke out and my dad said to my grandad, 'I'm not signing up for the army, Hitler can come over here as far as I'm concerned, I ain't got a job, I ain't got a house, why should I fight for this country, I've got nothing to fight for,' and my granddad, who was a Fusilier, said: 'You're going in the army,' took him down, and signed him up. He didn't want to come out in the end. He loved it.”

Not only is the Lisbon Treaty the Same Treaty that should again be rejected for the same reasons - but now it is outmoded, outdated and irrelevant in the current Economic Recession.

It offers no hope to Ireland or to anywhere else because it was drawn up some years ago before the Recession was even suspected, and not an idea, not a single sentence, not even a word has been changed to take into account our changed world, our depressed Europe, our Desperate Ireland.

It contains nothing new, it offers no hope, it offers no plans, nothing at all to Ireland , to any other European State or to the Third World.

If this Lisbon Treaty, the same Treaty that we rejected already, is all that the E.U. has to offer, then God help us all !

A NO vote will send a direct message to the E.U. to quit throwing old outmoded and outdated things of the past like the Lisbon Treaty at us, which offer no solutions at all to our present Recession , a NO vote will be a signal to the E.U. to GET REAL: and start to tackle this recession at its roots where it started - amongst the speculators and bankers, a NO Vote will be a message that we will not stand for trillions being spent to bail out bankers, developers and speculators, that the people of Ireland and Europe have had enough of them all !
