The political classes and the pet journalists ,who are practically bedfellows for their chums ,are at one in heaping opprobrium on the decent people of Jobstown,who recently had their democratic say and utterly rejected the candidate's of the main political parties.
I remember Bertie describing someone as a "Mouth",a spake which true Dubs will understand fully but will not be so obvious to others outside the pale.
Well having heard the likes of Vincent Brown ,Aodhan O Riordan and Cathal Mac Coille ,to name but a few, bully,intimidate and ,in my opinion,maybe libel Paul Murphy on the national airwaves, I can say with conviction that they are nothing but mouthpieces for the Government.
You will notice the contempt that these people and the Government have for those who speak with a Dublin accent , how they belittle them and how contrastingly they suck up fawningly to those with the more cultured accents of their buddies and chums,whose views they think sacrosanct.
It reminds me of the two sides in the Smithfield showdown over the now defunct horse fair,where on the one side you had ordinary non privileged and poor Dubs and on the other the educated well off snobs who can afford horses and ponies ,modern spec stables and manicured lawns for their spoilt offspring.
No more horse fair and fuck the poor Dubs ,and seize their horses and enact legislation which ensures they can never aspire to what their better spoken and rich contemporaries take for granted.
Sure they are only scum and let them take heroin and with a bit of luck thy will became methadone zombies and that is much preferable to allowing them anywhere near a horse or pony ,God forbid.
And keep these unruly mob of bowsies in Tallaght well away from our fragrant Ministers and put our kind of people in there to give them second chance education,having made a hames of them the first time round and use this delayed benevolence as a stick with which to beat them as they legitimately protest.
And Aofhan O Riordan's linking of the protest in Tallaght with a bomb threat was totally despicable as was his claim of a gun threat against himself.
He and his buddies in Labour have bitten the hand that feeds them and are turning on their working class supporters .
And by the way the fact that adults were failed by their teachers and left illiterate the first time round is some indictment of the teachers profession of which himself,and the all of the gang of four are members,Tanaiste included.
Now I would get it fierce hard to vote for Paul Murphy and those of socialist leanings because of the way they push for the medieval murder of the defenceless unborn and the zealous disregard they have for the younger life of the three involved (surely the father ought have a say too ),but in this instance of standing by their constituents I have the height of admiration for their stance and refusal to be bullied and intimidated.
The Government has long tried to blacken the anti water charge movement by claiming that dissident terrorists and all manner of unsavoury people are involved and are using what happened here as an attempt to dissuade people to stay at home and stop protesting ,
And their supine media and craven journalistic friends are so far up their ..... that they will stop at nothing to help them.
To hear these stooges you would swear that it was a capital offence to have a megaphone and that if you sit down and block the passage of a car you should be deported.And that if someone else in a demonstration misbehaves the fault is communally shared.(Does this principle of communal blame attach to all Gardai on duty if one lets fly and half kills someone ?)And don't count on legislation to outlaw this not being rushed through the house,as was the legislation causing the furore ,on the sly and in a few minutes.
No wonder the people of Rossport who demonstrate against their nemeses are so pissed.
The pious platitudes that "I fully support the right to demonstrate"which is chanted like a mantra by the political elite when being lined up for fawning interview by their media chums is always followed by a "but" in which it becomes clear that what they really mean is that these protests should take place out of sight,nor against them or their buddies and somewhere else,maybe an abandoned warehouse for example.
And what is the touch of a water balloon compared to the heartbreak of a parent waving goodbye to a child and grandchildren to the far side of the world ,a suicide or abortion induced by economic despair and the unspeakable distress of people being evicted from their homes as a direct result of Government policy and a series of broken promises on these issues.
And then to push workers who probably would be unemployed but for this work into the front line and shelter behind their employment as a reason to desist protest is disgusting in the extreme.
I mean how low and self pitying can these people get.
Because of the neglect of successive Governments to supply proper scanning machines,clot busting medication and doctors fit to make the call on its administration to Navan Hospital until 2010 I am severely disabled for life (lucky not to be dead) and can only walk as far as a well directed fart .
I have not yet been on any of the demonstrations.
With God's help I will be on the next one.
