And a nice selection of snippets reflecting the reality in Ireland. Most people are looking beyond left v right, beyond the party system and the sham that is parliamentary democracy. Very few believe power is wielded in parliament and that a vote every 4 or 5 years changes anything and a 'victory' is no victory at all.
"We are on the precipice of what will be the greatest divisive issue since the cινιℓ ωαr and the penal times in Ireland. Legislation for abortion is leading us to the bloodiest of crimes - killing our own people - killing the future generations of Ireland and extinguishing the hope and peace of Irish people everywhere.
Many voters will never be able to trust politicians ever again. Those working as nurses, doctors, counsellors, those in the health industry, support networks, family groups, teachers, civil servants, and many more in society will not be able to fully participate in carrying out the functions of their employment."
"The sham of a Dail Committee hearing was nothing other than an agenda ridden talking shop."
"The political model has failed, the economic model has failed, political leaders have failed. Not only has the country been abandoned to outside control that dictates economics, fiscal control, taxation and the wealth of Ireland's natural resources; but our political leaders neither recognise or include the dignity and value of the human person or what is best for the moral good. Why do they race to set aside the Irish people's Constitution?
Ireland is on the cusp of being partitioned yet again and this time it is sought in the name of murder, the killing of the defenceless, most vulnerable and innocent of all – the unborn child, a real viable human being with its own identity, DNA and personality from the very millisecond of conception."
