We stand for a United Europe

Yes a Europe of
exploitation
secrecy
corporate lobbying
and a wall which has cost more lives then the Berlin wall ever did.

What bollocks. FG are not an internationalist party. The are an insular nationalist one. The last time they were active outside of Europe it was in Spain when they were fighting under the swastika for Franco.

The EPP is nothing more than a parliamentary group (of which FG will have no more members from June 12!) that come together mjust to milk more out of the system.

In nearly every corner of Europe, both inside and outside of the European Union, you will find YEPP member parites, be they in Molodva, Croatia, Belarus or Germany.

Young Fine Gael is committed within YEPP to building a European Union of all of Europe, based on common values such as democracy, the rule of law and human rights

in Belarus you say?
Well that's interesting, now we would like to read letters on conditions in Belarus from anyone even a YFG member.
How is the country that offered political asylum to the Iraqi Hussein Family?
How is the country with the most serious sexual slavery networks on the continent?
How is the most ecologically poisoned country on the continent?
Tell us oh do, what pray tell is the YFG member doing in a country with hardly any legal or respectable jobs?
Are they backpacking?

Belarus, by all accounts, is pretty fucked up.

It's like all the talk about "law and order", "security" and "fighting against terror". It really depends what you mean by those terms, and indeed what you mean when you present yourselves as somehow Christian. It's funny that Christians are the only people in the world who believe that they can follow Christ without being pacifists. Ask any Jew, Hindu, Muslim or athiest who has taken 20 minutes to read what Jesus said about "law and order", "security", justice, homicide, etc., and they'll tell you the same: the guy was a peacenik and a pinko through and through.

Karl,


spain is in Europe.

Yes Spain is in Europe and the last time FG did anything in Spanish politics it was sending over fascist blueshirts to smash democracy in the country. If this is the Europe that FG wants I want nothing to do with them.

BTW - FG at the time also supported Hitler and Mussolini

word came from Maynooth to support the Nazis/
the Bishops blessed to Blueshirts at Dun Laoghaire/
as they sailed beneath the Swastica to Spain...

From Viva La Quinta Brigada.

The Blueshirts did not fight with distinction in Spain. They saw very little active service. Most active they got was serving up meals for the Fascist Generals in their Mess. On the other hand the Irish in the International Brigade stood alongside the Spanish People and fought and died beneath the Spanish Sun.

ADVICE: When FG come knocking on my door at election time I always ask them why they supported Franco in Spain. They don't like that.

Of course there wouldnt have been an EU enlargement on may day if the socialists/communists were still in power in eastern Europe. Any time a socialist comes knocking on my door I ask them why they had to build a wall to keep their citizens in in Berlin, or about the gulags. They dont like that.

by iosaf Tue May 04, 2004 23:37

have th e same problem over here,
especially leading up to elections.
streets clogged with pesky socialists.
Ah well, where do you on holidays young fine gael will you ever tell us?

At what stage do Iosaf's demotic ramblings become gibberish.


It gives me a pain in the head to try and read the rubbish above.

What does it mean?

Does Iosaf ignore the edit screen?
