Airborne coaldust particles.Saved by the bell

 Living off the South Circular Road in Dublin in 1988-9 led to chronic respiratory problems for all the unfortunate inhabitants of the South Inner City. The air was heavily polluted by smoke from domestic coal-burning.

In 1989,Mary Harney took the initiative in banning coal-burning in many areas and saved many lives, probably including mine.

In dealing with the low survival rate of cancer,she cut unnecessary hospital beds and basically tricked doctors to do a better job by lowering expenditure. That is why we say pathetic and solipsistic rhetoric about spending more money on health is such a lot of hyper-inflated waffle. Ignore this nonsense, everyone,vote for people who are objective and genuinely progressive and take a businesslike approach.

Cancer survival rates doubled from 1:4 to 2:4 because of Ken Baker and Mary Harney not being satisfied with platitudes and rhetoric.

'Health' histrionics?

For the birds and the bees.

Demoniacs. Who are the Gardai anyway other than...

 ... other than rough, ignorant and unmannerly country people and semi-educated fascists who send their children to study law and medicine,a bunch of tramps, the worst of them being the Cork or Kerry or Midlands Gardai. These tramps in their big cars try to run people over and kill them even on a Sunday. They are,in that facet of  their activities,no different from police anywhere. The country Gardai are drunken layabouts recruited from the farming  class and the pending dole queue. They will,if they are allowed to behave like the licensed thugs that they are,carry out illegal evictions at the behest of landlords. Gardai own property which they are not paying tax on in every county in Ireland.  Detectives working undercover? Police everywhere are notorious for cheating people out of their change when working undercover in bars and restaurants and for stealing from the till. These people,if they were not enforcing the law,would be put in jail for breaking the law,such...

Nationalism and dictatorship vs. socialism and realism

Irish,German, Russian,Italian and American nationalism are remarkably similar though with a different emphasis. German nationalism is distinguished by supremacist notions formed between 1847 and 1883. American nationalism with its disastrous imperialist outworkings is only now being overcome. Irish nationalism is tinged with a definite  unity of belief in faith and Irish Unity. Italian nationalism is characterised by Mother Love (because very few Italians remain faithful to their spouses for long). In Italy nationalism is also marked by rebel song. .... Nationalism is very much a beast of the backwoodmen's making. The most dangerous type is the German type. German nationalism in its poliical form was best summed up by Wagner (1847),"No end or end goal marks out the German race rather the process of strivation"  In Ireland as Wolfe Tone said,nationalism is England hatred. He stated,"England,the never-ending source of all our woes". Italian nationalism is as the I...

The dungfly. The informer

A tout is a weak and pathetic sort of fool who ends up drinking himself to death. He is a fickle sort of creature,a straw in the wind who like the biblical Jew is a wanderer between sky and cloud. However,he can be dangerous so here are my reflections from a lifetime of experience and untoward advances by these pricks..... A spy or false witness usually acts on his own volition and is interested,inter alia, in  what you listen to on the radio or watch on television. He is a sociopath who likes to alter outcomes and he gets money from the police for telling them such information.The police have the power to influence broadcasting content and schedules. It's MONEY which motivates the hound most.  Sometimes,a country  informer operates remotely by telephoning or through a neighbour but he will stop visiting and calling if you DO NOT ANSWER THE TELEPHONE... Say "Skat!" Sometimes, he may arrive at your door the next day to tell you that he was "concerned" about you. ...
