German state media have systematically slandered Charlie Kirk in the wake of his assassination, says Eugyppius. They portray him as an unhinged and dangerous fascist, just stopping short of blaming him for his own death.

Charlie Kirk's murder marks the shift to a post-woke world, says Dr David McGrogan. At least the woke wanted to return to Year Zero and build a 'better world'. The online, Bluesky Left of 2025 just hate conservatives.

Protest outside Dáil as Gas Giveaway continues

"Those whose only comfort zone is found within the establishment passed by with heads averted"

On 29 Nov 2011 the CNRA (Communications, Natural Resources and Agriculture) Dáil Committee met to hear submissions from Pro Gas Mayo (Brendan Cafferty), Council for the West (Sean Hannick), Pobal le Chéile and Pobal Chill Chomáin; Cafferty and Hannick were accompanied by Shell PR Christy Loftus; the Pobals by Gerry Murray Sinn Féin County Councillor Mayo.

Most of the group who protested left their homes in Mayo that morning at 5am to maintain a
presence outside the Dáil which continued until 8pm that night. They were joined by other
supporters including Colm Roddy in Dublin and congratulated for their effort by, among others,
the prominent politicians Richard Boyd Barrett, Luke the Ming Flanagan and Mick Wallace. Also
joining the protest during the day was politician and activist Fiachra Ó Luain.

Not unexpectedly those whose only comfort zone is found within the establishment passed by with heads
averted to take part in a farcical process designed solely to provide a figleaf for the continued giveaway
of our oil and gas at a time when the country and its people are on their knees through the chicanery and
cravenness of past and current governments.
