FF propaganda stunt is something to be avoided

I WILL not be attending Fianna Fáil’s propaganda stunt in Dublin’s O’Connell Street today for the 90th anniversary of the 1916 Rising.

FF propaganda stunt is something to be avoided

Instead I will have removed myself from my native city to Galway where I hope to enjoy a nice holiday.

This does pain me greatly, as my great-grandfather fought in Boland's Mills as part of James Connolly’s Irish Citizen Army, under the command of Eamon de Valera.

Fianna Fáil have a bloody cheektrying to cash on this occasion.

No one really believes anymore that Fianna Fáil is a republican party based on the 1916 Proclamation: “We declare the right of the people of Ireland to the ownership of Ireland, and to the unfettered control of Irish destinies, to be sovereign and indefeasible.”
