It's become blatantly obvious in recent times that Corbyn is holding back the Labour party from wrestling control of government from the Conservatives. Would you seriously rather live in Tory Britain than in one lead by social democrats like Thornberry or Starmer without Corbyn's baggage.
Is there a rough tier system for trustworthiness of various news sources in wrestling media?
How would this sub go about creating such a system? How was it done elsewhere?
Aside from the obvious "wanting to see scum like Gerry Adams in the ground before a United Ireland" which we can't control unfortunately.
Disclaimer: I'm not a socialist myself, a pretty big opponent of it actually, just interested in socialist's thoughts on the economic crisis there and what is causing the supply<demand failure and what socialist approach should be taken to fix the economy there.
Are we in a stronger or weaker negotiating position now than in 1997. I ask because President Clinton seemed much less right wing than President Trump today and America remain the most likely mediator. On the other hand, the Nationalist community has grown and continues to grow. Our great relationship with Europe also makes us less reliant on the UK as an economic partner. Furthermore, opinions in Britain about NI have soured significantly with many Britons eager to get rid of the expense and hassle.
You all seem to have a big problem with foreign intervention. Do you think it was wrong of these countries to lend their aid to our struggle?
Sometimes the people of a nation need outside help to get rid of tyrants with greater military strength.
Let's not forget the contributions of the Soviet Union to the IRA either.
I haven't seen any polls on such a question but it would certainly be interesting to see if any change happened or if there was no change it would settle a lot of debate in the Labour party.
The UK considers 'Asian' to mean from India/Pakistan etc.
I've always considered Asian to mean East Asian and I've never really noticed other Irish people assuming Indian origin.
Has this always been the case in Ireland or is it influenced by our substantial East Asian migrant population growth in recent times compared to the UK's large Indian and Pakistani population.
An unchained capitalist utopia where money men can operate however they please and workers be damned under the Tories or else a heavily regulated and nationalised socialist economy under Corbyn.
Shouldn't those scenarios be absolutely terrifying for Labour and Tory voters respectively?
I used to never cry at all and used to feel very little emotion bar anger at particularly nasty villains but I've noticed in the past year I've become very emotionally fragile when watching TV or movies with particularly emotional scenes.
This goes for movies I haven't seen in a while. For instance, I was just rewatching the Harry Potter movies over Christmas with my family and I cried during maybe 3 or 4 of them. Not blubbering, but I had to wipe my eyes as slyly as possible so my younger siblings who I was babysitting wouldn't notice. I don't remember feeling this affected by media as much in a very long time.
It's a strange phenomenon because I feel much stronger emotionally and far
I'm a big fan of Go Your Own Way and The Chain are two of my favorite songs by the band and I really like Big Love as well FWIW.
Even his backing vocals on the likes of Little Lies add much to the songs imo.
If he's capable of beating the Tories, he shouldn't need to sacrifice the British people's wellbeing to do so. If he's not capable of beating the Tories without letting them first irreparably damage the country, he should look to groom a successor who can unite the party without his baggage that puts people off Labour.
Used to be that r/Ireland was a hive of scum and villainy that thought Jean McConville probably deserved it or some BS, that's changed massively even in just two years but these late night brigades are a worrying trend.
Even seeing Mary Lou of all people getting shit for trying to move SF away from the toxic past despite clearly being a huge part of SF's recent surge, being probably the most well liked of all the political leaders.
