Spain and Portugal?s Blackout Reveals the Achilles? Heel of Electricity Grids Dominated by Wind and ... Tue Apr 29, 2025 17:00 | Anonymous Engineer
The power outage in Spain and Portugal wasn't caused by extreme weather, but by an over-reliance on wind and solar. If the UK continues on its headlong path to Net Zero, we can expect similar failures.

An Excess of Pity: Why We Fail to Deport Those Whom We Should Deport Tue Apr 29, 2025 15:00 | Dr David McGrogan
Why do we fail to deport those whom we should deport? It's due in the end, says Dr David McGrogan, to an excess of pity. We are pitying ourselves into disorder and social decay. We need to be willing not to be nice.

however, he resisted his detention, biting a hole in the bag, and had to be brought across the road ...
.. for a good dose of the 'Mill Street' treatment ...
.. or two ..
When suitably pacified he was stuffed into a car and driven to a GAW safehouse for 'Deep Interrogation'.
A spokesperson for the Organisation has said it may take several days to crack this case, but promised that a full confession will be forthcoming shortly. Watch this space for further revelations ....
there is getting arrested and there is setting out to get yourself arrested. The guys a fool who sees being arrested as a badge of honour. It in some way backs up his self styled image as being a pope of anarchy. His followers must think "That guy is so great the cops are always on his case" Well I have news he is not great, the cops are on his case because he wants them to be.
I suspect that these pictures may have been staged.
If you have any further information contact me on 0033156800879.
Further I hope no one forces those lads to dress like that.
that's a reconstruction good enough for Garda Patrol.
Obviously liberals (probably influenced by foreign ideas) are paying pacifists to make the hard job of running the state for the benefit of George Redmond and the eFFers harder than it already is.
Time to privatise the Social Welfare.
the irony is thick n heavy. nice one. incredibly funny. a hopeful future in satire stretches out before ye. is it going to be adapted to the silver screen?
Prove your essential credentials - apply for rent allowance for a Shannon 'Luxury' Peace-Camp - before the January cutbacks deadline kicks (the uncompetitive) in !
Any complaints about editorial policy to the editorial list please. Personal abuse is not allowed on the newswire.
That was most amusing. I hope they cut off his dole, then we can photo him crawling back to the State he despises so much.
The above comment from mister 1 editor just about somes it up.
"Personal abuse is not allowed on the newswire"
Could you care to explain why the top comment titled "Pope is a fool"has not been removed?Is fool an acceptable form of abuse?
In that case the Indymedia editors are fools.
Now you can't knock that off can you!
I think in the opinion of the poster the pope is a fool. He backs it up with allegations that he does it for the publicity. If someone were to get arrested for the sake of it then I think it would be right to call him a fool. I don't really see 'fool' as a real insult. A real insult would be something personal like his 'mother is fat' or 'he molests goats'. (Obviously not true)
Indymedia does not forbid criticism, even harsh criticism, as long as it is backed up by argument. The leading comment, although in my opinion terribly arrogant and ignorant, at least tries to make a case.
Your deleted comments, on the other hand were nothing but base abuse without so much as an attempt to justify it. They do nothing other than show what a moron you are and so you should be happy to have them deleted.
we cleared that up before.
he is a socialist.
please get these little details right.
After three days of intense physical torture, the GAW inquisitors shifted to psychoterror in a desperate attempt to break the BlackPope. In this foto he contemplates a celestial vision during a smoke-break from the rigours of interrogation.
He was then subjected to White Noise - a loop-tape of Richard Boyd-Barret's greatest speeches - over a four day period, whilst being softened up with the old Galway truth-serum, a.k.a. "Buckfast and Spliff Cocktail".
However, the plan backfired badly - BlackPope laughed so much his stitches almost bust, and his only confession was to repeatedly bellow "more truth-serum, ye's barsterds ye's!" and "bring on the Kieran Allen tape, fuck-witts!"
GAW's whole stash of Bucky and grade-A Lebanese Gold was eventually exhausted by the voracious BlackPope, who was then expelled from the safe-house pending the arrival of fresh stocks.
A GAW bat-man said that a vote will be taken at the upcoming Security Council meeting on Jan 31st to decide whether to further expend precious chemicals or to conserve supplies by banishing BlackPope back to the Nether regions north-east of Ardee.
smoke-break
banished to badlands in the North
God bless 'im, but the Black Pope is one mean baaad arsed mothafuka with what seems to be a fondness for Bucky and primo gear - If the Irish Anti-War Movement had an army of his ilk, we would win the peace overnight.?
