The media are wrong to pin the blame for the Canadian Conservatives' loss on Trump, says Prof James Allan. In truth, the Tories' vote was sky high ? but the Left-wing vote coalesced around Carney.

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.

Like the Rossport 5 'The Chief' and Niall suffer for their desire to get to the truth. Government in Ireland (and most of the world) is no longer about truth, the constitution or serving the people, it is about serving corrupt interests of the elite and the corporations.
While people remain disunited and focus on individual or smaller issues such as animal cruelty, job losses, deportations etc. which are all symptomatic of a corrupt system we fail to address the root cause of all these issues - the complete failure of government as a system that is intended to serve and protect the people. Only a concerted effort by all concerned people will bring about a change at the highest level - ending the corrupt system so that the individual issues may be then dealt with.
The current format of piecemeal protest and resistance is akin to running around with a fly swatter while ignoring the stinking bucket of dung in the middle of the room that is causing the problem!
Another selection of photos chronicling Pat's triumphant return home. Please remember Niall Harnett, now 89 days in Castlerea Prison.

Absolutely deadly to see The Chief out
Spreading the word over here in the US
Solidarity all Shell to Sea!
welcome home pat boy,fair play to you,you're an inspiration to us all!
keep it lit...........
Well done Pat, you're an absolute inspiration. I'm sorry I couldn't make it up to the celebrations when your seven months finally came to an end. I'm infuriated by the injustice done to you but also hopeful that with the help of people like you wrongs can (eventually) be made right.
And to anyone who hasn't yet seen 'The Pipe' documentary, make it a priority on your list of 'worthwhile, inspirational documentaries to watch'...it's just fantastic.
Solidarity and support being sent to Pat and all the Shell to Sea gang from Galway.

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing"
Evil will not triumph here because of good men such as Pat. The is no cause more noble than to stand up for others,
