What Lucy Powell?s Grooming Gang Comments Tell Us About Labour Tue May 06, 2025 13:00 | Andrew Doyle
Voicing concerns about grooming gangs is a "dog-whistle", a "little trumpet" and jumping "on a bandwagon of the far Right". That's what Labour really thinks, says Andrew Doyle, and voters will not be forgiving.

fisi is a Kiswahili word meaning hyena. Does 'fis' have any hidden lexical connotations? Hapa ni shida kubwa bwana.
The political wing of the Prolifers?
Pat, perhaps Geraldine means that you did not consult other Green Party local groups in Wicklow of your decision to resign........... I wish you well Pat and always did. I know you from old.

Geraldine, Bray is not my constituency area??
Connemara man, Fís Nua means New Vision - it has nothing to do with fish. Funny though :-)
The Irish word for fish is "iasc".
Not "fis".
.
Pat you did a solo run on us in Bray and you know it.
Caroline,
Maybe that's the way your mind works, but I certainly have hopes and ambitions for this country which far far outweigh any personal ambitions. The country is rapidly going down the tubes - it's incumbent on anybody who can to try their best to prevent this from happening.
I have great regard for Ciaran as an ex-colleague, but the Green Parlimentary Party has done so much damage that good councillors like Ciaran and other green ex-councillors could not even hold on to their seats. What realistic chances would they have in a General Election?
Dear Pat,
You resigned from the Green Party to get maximum publicity for youself because you knew you would not get the nod to run as a TD against Cllr Ciaran O'Brien.
Hi Shayne,
If we were all to lie down and complain till the cows came home, there would never be any change in the status quo. I'm not saying Fís Nua has all the answers - but the door is open to any individual, groups or organisations who believe that what they say matters. Rome wasn't built in a day, and we have to start somewhere. But thanks for taking the time to comment anyway.
Just FYI, there have been no election candidates selected as yet. Selection will be up to all members in any given constituency area. If you want to read our constitution, you will find it on the website: www.fisnua.com
Kind regards
Cllr Pat Kavanagh
Independent Green
Old Codger, you are more than welcome to make a submission to Fís Nua's proposals if you feel that the wording of the policies is not strong enough. We are committed to political reform and doing away with the 'old boy's network' that permeates throughout the whole rotten system. Your imput would be appreciated. email info@fisnua.com
This organisation have no chance whatsoever-they are too far detacthed from reality and just wouldn't have the kind of experience to get people elected or a national level. The Green candiadte in Wicklow isnt in politics a wet day and is not a credible candidate. Like is just another talk shop on top of a million other groups-will only split vites and help Fine Gael in. This is reality.
Probably another Spanish trawler.But sure they have to mix something with their chips too. And besides, our trawlers have been off the African coasts doing their share of damage. Then when the Africans find they cannot compete with the mega-fleets and try to get ashore in Europe to fed themselves we fuck them back like they were undernourished sprats.
Best wishes to you all.
A new party has to take the bull by the horns and have a firm policy to reform politics. I see nothing in your manfiesto stating that you will make political criminals pay for their crimes. Both the Judiciary and the Gardai have been corrupted by the govrnment and they also need to be reformed. You say that you support the policies of Shell to Sea but make no comment on the fact that the Irish people are deliberately being denied access to International law by both Fianna Fail and the greens. THE Aarhus Convention has not and will not be ratified by our corrupt government. They do not want people to have any input into what happens in their communities.
Many promises were made by a party that professed to hold the same ideals as you, but all were renaged upon when they went into government with known criminals.
Unless you can convince the public that you are truthfull and mean what you say (and that will be tough in the situation this country is in) then you will have wasted your time.
The deeds of the crooks that have been selling our nation down the drain have not all been revealed yet ,many secrets have yet to be uncovered.
