Trans 'allyship' was supposed to lead us all pliantly to accept that men can become women. Now that has failed, the velvet gloves are off to reveal iron fists. But violent threats won't work either, says Caroline Ffiske.

Reckless planning contributed to flooding

category national | miscellaneous | press release author Thursday December 03, 2009 22:18author by Republican Sinn Féin - Republican Sinn Féinauthor email saoirse at iol dot ieauthor address 223 Parnell Street, Dublin Report this post to the editors

Statement by Fergal Moore, Vice-President Sinn Fein Poblachtach

Those who have contributed to flood relief appeals are to be greatly commended. For the most part, aid has come from ordinary working-class people who have taken it upon themselves to offer and organise assistance in the face of dithering and procrastination from the administrations in Leinster House and Stormont. Republicans will offer their support and assistance to those who are in need.

The gombeen culture fostered by Fianna Fáil over generations has led directly to thousands being left homeless as they have discovered that their homes have been recklessly built on flood plains. These people must be compensated in full by the developers who have hoodwinked them.

In the meantime they should be housed in some of the many thousands of properties that lie empty across the country that are being held onto by speculators in the hope that prices will rise.

Críoch/Ends.
