offsite link Trump the Philosopher Sun Jun 29, 2025 07:00 | James Alexander
Trump is great because he calls a spade a spade, which is unheard of in Western politics, says Prof James Alexander. What's more, sometimes, as we saw with Iran, he refuses, like the philosopher, to take sides.

Irishness Incompatible With Britishness

category cavan | miscellaneous | press release author Thursday November 27, 2008 19:06author by Richard Walsh - Republican Sinn Féinauthor email tiocfaidh at btinternet dot comauthor phone +44-7835 620 592 / +353-87 261 8603 Report this post to the editors

Claims by 26-County President Mary McAleese during a visit to an Orange Hall in County Cavan that it is possible to be both Irish and British are nonsensical, a spokesperson for Republican Sinn Féin has said.

Claims by 26-County President Mary McAleese during a visit to an Orange Hall in County Cavan that it is possible to be both Irish and British are nonsensical, a spokesperson for Republican Sinn Féin has said.

“It is not possible for someone to give their allegiance both to Ireland and to Britain. Britain represents the denial of Ireland's rights. Orangemen should instead be encouraged to recognise that they are exclusively Irish, and to work for the benefit of the Irish Nation rather than adhering to narrow sectarian Orange ideology.

“To suggest that Unionists are anything other than Irish amounts to a tacit acceptance of Thatcherite claims that the Six Occupied Counties are 'as British as Finchley'.”
