Replying To Freethinker:  "Worryingly, their narrative and language is reminiscent of sentiment which brought national socialism to power in 1920/30s Germany. If we fail to learn from history we are bound to repeat it. That is the scary part of all this racist commentary. I too am proud of our latest Irish athletes - all of them regardless of creed or colour."
That's it and far right party in Germany already starting to try and paint the SS in a better light. The far right in Ireland already have links with a lot of these unsavoury crews. The irony as well that they've befriended Tommy Robinson and the BNP types. The same thugs who were only too happy to beat up Paddy's in the 70s and 80s.

I'd agree it would be worrying if there was an actual far right movement here to be worried about.
All I see is a few mouthpieces, hardly a threat!

Bad weekend for Irish Rugby with both Leinster and Munster knocked out in URC Semi Final. Good opportunity lost for Munster to retain the title with a home final

Replying To Viking66:  "No fracturing down here. 1 NP candidate. Didn't get anywhere."
Seriously. How many anti immigration centre candidates won seats in Wexford? Rosslare alone?

NP are irrelevant. The combined "far right" vote as,defined by establishment won over 20% of vote.

Deal with facts for once.

That fella was the only candidate campaigned in Wexford under an anti immigration banner.
