The Partionist Party

How appropriate at Samhain to turn to some ghouls. A spectre is haunting Ireland, the spectre of Fascism. The Far Right cannot get one of their own onto the ballot paper, but they have managed to make themselves into the story, with the compliance of the Liberal Right more keen to report on empty ballots…

The headline of the election of the new Uachtarán na hÉireann is of course, the extraordinary election of Catherine Connolly herself. Her pretty flawless campaign demonstrated not only her principles but also an unexpected and astonishing ability to keep a ball in the air. We have maintained the tradition, now more than thirty years of…

I Do not listen to those who say that this shambolic Presidential campaign is reminiscent of the last time there was a Fianna Fáil implosion during such a campaign, with Brian Lenihan in 1990; in fact the last time there was a Fianna Fáil implosion during a Presidential election was with Seán Gallagher in 2011.…

Martin forms an instructive contrast with the man with whom he job-shared as Taoiseach and Táiniste, Varadkar. The latter is an unprincipled chancer, and, as such, can see when something is obvious and then get behind it just in time, as he has recently done on Reunification; witness also his sudden interest a few years…

The morose Shared Island initiative that Martin has been promoting, which sits within the Department of the Taoiseach, costs money but is said to be a way to unlock Growth. The Shared Island Fund was announced in Budget 2021, with initial €500m in capital funding available between 2021-25, ring-fenced for investment in collaborative North/South projects.…

Has Micheál Martin been bought? Or is he working for the English for free? Macdara fears that the latter is the more likely proposition—at least if he was bought, his behaviour would be understandable, but he is likely exhibiting merely the compulsory irrationality of Partitionism. Let us use this strange man as a study. But…

A naive observer might ask how a crime of the magnitude of Genocide may be covered up. This is a mistake: a crime of the magnitude of Genocide must be covered up. Recall that the Catholic Church abhors Miracles as phenomena outside its system of control; popular devotion, popular politics or activism: these disgust our…

Kneecap have very ably described the activities of a rabid English political-media class urging each other on to ever greater acts of calumniation and spitefulness, as a festival of distraction. To avoid reporting on the actual Genocide, these base representatives of Regime ideology must make the perpetrators of the Genocide into victims. And so, once…

The most important artists in the country, Kneecap, have suffered a coordinated campaign by the footsoldiers of the Late Capitalist order. Their crime is their criticism of the Genocide. Note that this is literally a crime, as it is has been investigated by the security apparatus of the State currently occupying the part of Ireland…

And what of the page called Designation? It starts off: On the first day the Assembly meets after an election, MLAs sign the Register and designate themselves as ‘nationalist’ or ‘unionist’. This is to facilitate cross-community voting on certain key decisions […] Such decisions must be supported by a certain percentage of MLAs from both…
