Bertie ahern

Yeah. Even the dullards & mouth breathers are coming around to realise what he did for the peace process.

Absolute ArseHole , heard him yet again this morning on Claire Byrne, it absolutely astonishes me the short memory Some I'm media circles seem to have, Ahern is like a fly around Shyte. Fair enough he played a part in the peace process but to my my mind others did the heavy lifting.

It was kind of Ironic Bertie appearing on various programs on the same week his appalling Shenanigans featured on reeling in the years and Oliver Callan focusing on the infamous Bertie years.

Haughey best described Ahern as the most cunning and Devious, I'd like to add he is Vile, Ghastly and a reminder how bad Politics was in this country at one time, horrid individual.

He was right about the loyalist.

I'd agree that governments are ultimately responsible for the formation of 'ghettos'. And Bertie being a part of the power swap here is as responsible as anybody else.

However he wasn't making a comparison to here in his remarks, so can't really be called for being hypocritical, he was just stating a fact. The scrotes burning buses know nothing about the Protocol or it's complexity

Excellent post/username combo

"We need to get away from this lazy and thoroughly dishonest notion that anyone who espouses a unionist position or criticises nationalism is somehow struggling to get used to not dominating nationalists."

"Stormont existed in its original form for 51 years. It has been gone for 49. So any unionist with any genuine recollection of the “Protestant Parliament for a Protestant People” would need to be at least seventy (and at least 72 to have voted for it), as would any Catholic who experienced the negative impact of it. Yet it is constantly cast up to us, not least by those who endorse the Provisionals’ campaign without having lived through the random carnage it inflicted on everyone here."

Bertie's remarks appear to have touched a nerve in all sorts of places.
