@GaryLineker
Shame on you comparing your gov to Nazis,same UK who stood alone for so long against the most evil empire that ever graced this planet,have you withdrawn it
Jaysus,guy in custody in Tullamore for killing Ms Murphy is out on bail on charge of attacking another woman, Courts & Justice system here hang your heads in shame
Hundreds of post LC students want to come early from Greek islands post tragedies,why did they go there,peer pressure,herd mentality,wealthy parents ,in my day when LC was over you helped save hay & turf or other menial job, what type of culture has developed in drink/drugs era?
Just heard Geraldine Finucane say on
@morningireland
that everyone is entitled to know what happened their loved ones,well said & I am sure it applies to hundreds of IRA victims also from Jean McConville to McCartney,Enniskillen to La Mon,Judges,E Graham etc

Sad funeral in Shrule today of ex Sgt Seamus Lohan,as was said in eulogy at the funeral his gut instinct lead to him to arrest killers of Mountbatten & others at Mullaghmore-two hours before bomb went off,stopped car in Granard two guys very nervous & fidegty,RIP
@gardainfo
To all those horrified by what Hamas done,look at what Provos did to James Elliot lorry driver,part time use along border, brutalized & killed him,put numerous bombs around his body,it took ages to recover body
The experience of web summit crash
@paddycosgrave
is salutary,we depend a lot on FDI,they are watching Sfira & looney left here,don't be surprised if they follow suit esp when they look at those gimps in Dail,time for FFG to say it out loud

SF TD
@ImeldaMunster
on TWIP allowed say IRA were Óglaigh na hEireann,no interrruption from
@lawlor_aine
either,outrageous & an insult to our Defence Forces,one of whom was murdered by IRA in Derrada wood in this state,& she & her party want to be in Gov here in charge
@rtetwip
SF leader Marylou trots out the usual mantra we all suffered in the conflict,she must know that IRA did most by far of the killing,& in regard to Cullinane up the Ra/free state she spouts we are Republican party bull
@RTELateLateShow
a shopkeeper in rural village in Mayo has told me his trade is up 35% since clampdown,proves value of local shop,people no longer flocking to big outlets in larger towns
Rte have just covered Bloody Friday anniversary in Belfast, IRA exploded 21 bombs in an hour,people were running from one into another,day of shame & infamy,let's hope we hear their other half

in 1972, the IRA murdered 9 people by 3 no warning car bombs in Claudy, Londonderry.
"When he stepped out of that car, he saw Kathryn (8) standing at that window, he should have shouted at her. But he didn't, he just walked away."- Mother.
#OTD
Garda Commissioner is a good man who was brought in his here to clear up matters in Gardai,seems SF like to rubbish him when he speaks the truth, Cullinane & Ellis shouting up the RA says it all
@SaturdayRTE
#OnThisDay
in 1981 the IRA murdered Joanne Mathers, 29. Married mother of 1 helping with census form. Man put gun to her head & fired. “I told our son his Mummy wasn’t coming back because she was in heaven. He thought that was a great place for her”
#OTD
All credit to fisherman Oliver who predicted from tides & wind where the two missing girls were SW of Inis Oirr,took to sea & rescued them,locals like him are unbeatable,miracles do still happen,they might not have lasted much longer
I hope Gerry Adams is watching Lost Lives on BBC2,things like IRA killing John McClory & Brian McKinney,bodies buried in bog in Monaghan,one of them had mentality of a 6 yr old child,how sad to see the tears of women & children,great program,I am sure RTE will show it too?
Joan Wilson passed away recently,wife of late Gordon, mother of Marie killed by IRA & of her son late Peter,a woman of great faith whom I met a few times,she once told me she was looking forward to meeting her family in next life, RIP
#OnThisDay
in 1977 the IRA murdered Douglas Deering, 52. Married father of 3. Last Protestant shopkeeper in Rosslea. Shop bombed x4 previously. Attended Brethren Assembly across border, Clones
#OTD
SF leader said on Rte to
@mcculld
that if she had known what Dowdall was like she'd never have him in de party,well what about Dessie Ellis, Martin Ferris & others
@MaryLouMcDonald
This is one horrible case that Sien Fien TD
@davidcullinane
does not refer to in his victory speech-bright civil servant shot dead in bank in Waterford during IRA raid in front of his child,gone but not forgotten
@RMcGreevy1301
Well done to Taoiseach
@MichealMartinTD
for taking on
@maryloumcdonald
& SFIRA by pointing out their record of murder,mayhem & abuse of women,no holds barred when they point finger of corruption at others
Ben Dunne dead, rip,I hope the million pound ransom for his release paid to SFIRA when they kidnapped him will be returned to his family ,a priest was the go between
@sinnfeinireland
Sinn Fein have put me through hell, mother of murdered Paul Quinn says.
Breege Quinn who blamed the IRA for beating her son to death has claimed Sinn Fein has put her through hell.
Did Ferris allude to murder of Garda McCabe in Adare which was done by Munster IRA as pension pot fund raiser,did Ferris not try to import guns to kill Gardai
Leo in Dail just laid into motormouth
@PearseDoherty
over his court appearance for abusing Garda, Marylou flying first class to Australia,fundraisers etc, great stuff
@LeoVaradkar
Heard
@bridsmithTD
on radio this evening say our sacred neutrality goes back to time of Wolfe Tone who wanted to stay clear of big military powers,Wolfe had no problem inviting the French here,what a clown she is
This is what IRA/Hamas did to a Protestant who was part time in security forces,their political wing SF have no confidence in Justice minister! There were many other cases like this

1941 Belfast suffered one of the heaviest bombing raids of the WWII Luftwaffe Blitz when 200 German bombers dropped 100+ tons of bombs setting the entire city ablaze & killing over 900 civilians, the largest single night loss of life outside of London in the War.
RTE mi covering events in Killarney as if a crowd of Kerry Men went mad after the all Ireland, don't mention the war,bet they will blame DP policy of this awful country
@morningireland
Interesting all the TDs I heard today on radio who oppose Taoiseach's visit to White House-Mary Lou,Mattie McGrath,Brian Stanley, Peadar Toibin,Rich Boy Barrett,what does this say?
What about soldier & prison officer,robbing banks etc, kidnapping,hostage like Dr Herrema,Don Tidey etc
@maryloumcdonald
, should not have ‘harmed’ any member of An Garda Síochána, says Sinn Féin leader
Martin McGuinness was rightly upset about Bloody Sunday,but relatives got apology from PM & Saville,IRA victims got nothing,likes of Joanne Mathers,Patsy Gillespie,Leslie Jarvis & so many more,did Martin ever grieve for them
@fiachramcg

@deirbhilesdaddy
@ivytowerhotel
Do people of Castlebar not have right to meet & express their fears,did you condemn those in Achill who stopped refugees being out up in Achill Head hotel,or was it An Tost Fada Saoirse ?
Sad & depressing watching Lost Lives,widows & young kids crying walking after coffins worst & to think those who mostly did this have been rewarded at the ballot box & in high office,our shame
Crazy scenes at the funeral of PIRA gunman Jim 'the Executioner' Lynagh in 1987. He was killed, along with seven other provos and a passing civilian, in an SAS ambush in Loughall, Co. Armagh. In his graveside oration, Gerry Adams labelled the Irish government a 'shoneen clan'.
Gerry Adams chooses when to go, only spoke of those on IRA side when remembering victims,not a word about all those the IRA despatched,who did not live to see their kids of gar paisti, good night Dracula,slán
@columeastwood
@sinnfeinireland
Colm think of all those who never grew old,Joanne Mathers who had a baby,McGuinness IRA decreed she must die-her crime collecting census forms,not to mention many others,ie Patsy Gillespie
Lynn Boylan angry with BOC that she was accusing Breege Quinn mother of IRA murder victim Paul as "sniping from the sidelines" has she no compassion for a grieving mother for her son who had every bone in his body broken
@rtenews
the Taoiseach was correct to point out now to
@MaryLouMcDonald
that the Gov spends 3.5 billion this year on SH,he also accuses SF of objecting to large scale social housing in Tallagh & Clondalkin,he says SF dont want to see problem solved,direct hit & fair dues
@MichealMartinTD
I have been reported to Twitter for posting a naked mutilated body of a dead IRA victim,as it is "insensitive" & they have contacted me. If it is insensitive,what must the real act be, IRA dont like to see the fruit of their works it seems ?
SF leader
@MaryLouMcDonald
had a great chance when she took over as leader,distance her party from actions of IRA,make atonement & move on,instead she used old cliches like Tiocfaidh ár lá etc,maybe she was told do do so by back room boys in Belfast
@MissLauraMarcus
@StuartEdwards
never walk alone in isolated areas/roads,keep to main thoroughfares,where people & traffic are,new fad of listening to iphones radios etc with ear plugs is hardly a good idea to be alert
IRA used torture victims,dump bodies along roads near border,Pathologist Jack Crane used not describe the horrific details to spare relatives more anguish-injuries,burning,scalding & worse
Anyone feel that divine intervention was at work in Graham Dwyer case,very dry summer exposed phones, handcuffs etc in dry reservoir,also Elaine's bones found by accident,something from the grave crying out?
Tough sentences in Kevin Lunney case, Mr YZ goes down for 30 years,A O Brien for 25, Redmond for 18, well deserved in all cases,pity there are not more, now for Mr.Big ?
Death of Galen Weston brings to mind 1983 & PIRA attempt to kidnap him from Wicklow home,but gardai were lying in wait,no doubt he'd have been subjected to same comforts in some place like Derrada Wood,Tidey style,this was done in this state lest we forget when SFIRA pontificate
SF leader
@MaryLouMcDonald
on RTE now about lock down hardships & having go at Taoiseach,not so long ago she called for all pubs to be opened,having it both ways
I heard a Senator just say (think it was Sen Devine) that she saw young brats jostling near a pharmacy & touching terrified elderly folk shouting Covid 19,what does one do with them,what rearing did they get,no respect for anyone
