SEARCHING ITS OWN MEMBERSHIP, BUT NOT ITS CONSCIENCE...
In the 1900's, this newspaper was closed down (temporarily) by Westminster because it was thought by the British to be too inclined towards the IRA's objectives - today, however, it is practically kept afloat by British proxies in Kildare Street in Dublin...
Ireland, 1922 - the State administration in Leinster House searched its own membership (but not its conscience) and ordered that certain political colleagues (!) should be 'arrested' by State forces and others should be barred from attending its meetings...
Ireland, 2002 - Was that when the worm started turning re 'Civic, Political and Social Studies', 'Relationship and Sexuality Education' and a pilot scheme for boys called 'Exploring Masculinities' were introduced to young people...?
Ireland, 1922 - This British military operative was found dead in Dublin after leaving a party, somewhat the worse for wear : he was armed, but his gun hadn't been fired...
We'll be covering the above pieces, and a few more, on this blog on Wednesday, 30th August 2023 ; all related to Irish history and Irish politics, from all 32 Counties - give us a shout on the 30th, and we'll show ya wha' we got!
Thanks for the visit, and for reading,
Sharon and the team.
