    My party?
    The Orange Order has a political wing now?

    :P:P


    Aren't it's roots embedded in politics?? With all the UU groups deciding everything, and eventually people got sick of it.

    ASTI have walked from talks again. Not good for Foley...her department is having a torrid time since she got the gig.

    ASTI walk from talks with absolutely everybody.

    She is having a torrid time, but Asti walking away is never a sign of anything but them doing what they do

    The accusation was that the OO had a political wing in the DUP like SF is the political wing of the PIRA.

    Which is course is a-factual nonsense.

    Just a co-incidence that they are all Unionists too I suppose. :):) Just a co-incidence every Prime Minister of NI was an Orangeman too.

    The greatest trick the devil ever pulled....etc etc.

    *SF never made a secret of their connection to the IRA btw.

    Christ FG councillor in Cork saying all lives matter a saying of the far right in the US? Not a good look it must be said

    Nice, comparing the funeral of a Garda to a meeting of the KKK.


    And you call yourself an Irish Nationalists and Republican!?
    You wouldn't even know the concept if it hit you in the face.
    You confuse hatred for FG/Leo for being a nationalist.

    Nope. Nice try. Dishonest but a try.
    Comparing it to the Storey funeral. It was you I quoted.

    You don't like getting corrected do you? You should be use to it by now.

    Pretty ignorant comment.
    Where do you think SF got the votes from?
    Think about it.

    Another of the many similarities between the Republican Trump Party and FG. Both promise rewards for the working man/woman while they **** on the working man/woman. Then their followers trained to blame those less well off and minorities. Works every time. Blaming the opposition for the outcome of their own party's policies. Pretty sad.

    In reality, yes, moderate, belligerent and more belligerent. All three connected to the OO and Orangism.
    FG favour the middle one.

    Your reality maybe, not in the real world.

    We have the UUP, DUP, TUV and PUP
    4 diffrerent Unionist party.
    Not one, but 4

    Great. You found another one.

    Plenty of choice for your next conference. ;)

    Mod: James Brown - wind it in. You're skating far too close to playing the man rather than the ball. Next instance will result in a threadban.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭CrazyFather1


    Own it mark. You just compared a funeral to a KKK rally/parade. Rather than admit that we have an Order on this island that is religiously bigoted, culturally suprematist, homophobic just as the KKK are, and that your party FG, links with it's political wing - the DUP without a shred of shame. Your party even has members that are proud of their association with it.
    The KKK had that access and privilege once as well...hence the photo.

    You brought the KKK into the thread, only you know why the hell anyone would want to?
    That's the sort of politics you want to discuss #politicofhatred
    I agreed a bigoted attitude exist but from what I can see it ain't coming from the Orange order


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭CrazyFather1

    Hopefully, all the Government parties should invite one of the Northern Ireland unionist parties to conferences. Have an open discussion.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭CrazyFather1



    Yes and fair play to her. It shows like most people the Orange order is moving on and not stuck in the past. Sadly to say other have not moved on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭CrazyFather1



    An article from 2005? desperation trying to find that


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭CrazyFather1


    Is it true you can be kicked out for marrying a catholic,but not for murdering one??

    Another fine example of fake news and #politicofhatred

    so the party that got got the highest percentage vote in the country is the the party of scroungers in a time when we had full employment. Make sense:D
    have a day off will ya.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭CrazyFather1


    agh yes,COI reverends from co down,clearly know nothing about the orange order in yous eyes



    How or why is a organisation,yous claim is about moving on,main focus and raison etre about a battle 300 plus years ago?

    It's an article from 2005, that is 16 years ago. As I said some people are living in the past.

    What is the 4th of July about?
    I can start naming out all the national celebrations but I think you might have figured out the point

    You do realise not every single person in Ireland voted?
    Plus Ireland will never have full employment.
    I am not saying every voter for SF was a scrounger either

    Except, the polls say otherwise - 1/4 of the electorate are not unemployed, neither are the bulk of 20-50 year olds - yet they vote for SF

    FFG give scroungers everything, free housing, healthcare, commit as many crimes as you want, insurance fraud - then pretend they don’t

    Too bad if you get up early for work

    FG simply don’t know what they’re doing, like unionism, they are in terminal decline and their Twitter nonsense is just embarrassing at this stage

    Post of the thread!

    QFT.


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,971 ✭✭✭✭blanch152


    except its not??

    Its evident,yous havnt an iota of the ethos,aims or objectives of the orange order



    Deos it have sectarian killers within its ranks,who upto 2019 were still stewarding ranks

    Did it as late as 2018 refuse membership in fermanagh to someone engaged to a catholic?


    Is it held responsible for worsening sectarian tensions in scotland.....and how do the above work as part of your moving on culture??



    Theres lolitoc of hatred about alright,but theres only one person cheering it on supporting the orange order

    Better than having sectarian killers in your ranks who become elected political representatives on behalf of your organisation.

    The orange order are the perfect epitome of "bigoted attitude" for Christ sake, it's the very reason for their existence.
    The Orange Order is a conservative unionist organisation,[4][5] with links to Ulster loyalism. It campaigned against Scottish independence in 2014.[6] The Order sees itself as defending Protestant civil and religious liberties, whilst critics accuse the Order of being sectarian, triumphalist,[7][8][9][10] and supremacist.[10][11][12][13] As a strict Protestant society, it does not accept non-Protestants as members unless they convert and adhere to the principles of Orangeism, nor does it accept Protestants married to Catholics.[14][15][16] Although many Orange marches are without incident, marches through mainly Catholic and Irish nationalist neighbourhoods are controversial and have often led to violence

    Proclaiming there is no bigoted attitude from them would be like trying to proclaim the Vatican doesn't promote Catholicism.

    Please think about what you're posting FFS.

    One is a religiously bigoted, racist community parading for the local community and seen as normal and acceptable.

    And the other is the KKK? Nah, your label applies to both photographs.

    It is mathematically possible that all Sinn Fein voters are on social welfare.

    Plus Ireland will never have full employment.

    You should tell that to every FFG Minister over the years, as they said we did numerous times'

    vast majority of those were pensions, the group that gave SF the lowest percentage vote.
    Your points don't add up, talking bs as usual,

    Read my post. I said it was mathematically possible, I didn't say it was in any way likely.
