Richard Boyd Barrett should really move to Cuba. There are no rich people there, and no big corporations, and everyone is taxed 90%. It's like Ireland in the 1980's. I think he'd be really happy there

Having been at many Orange parades over the last 30 years, I find I have no problem with them. You can choose to be offended, or you can choose to be entertained. Nice day out for so many people

@TJake2012 Same reason for the Irish famine. Conquer a country. Reduce the people to serfs. Steal everything from them. Blame them for their own poverty and then starve them to death

@karenievers The jewish population was always small because Ireland was so poor. According to Chaim Hertzog's book it was difficult to meet girls and marry, so when Israel was established they all left. His dad was a friend of Devalera.
