And here we are folks… Thanks to #tRump, despicable #Grifters are not only ‘making hay’ from #FossilFuel speculations at motorists’ expense, but now some fucking #Corporate #CapitalistShite is sacking staff using the price of fuel as an excuse. I’ll quote #Unionists here… It’s Bull shit!
Just wondering how many more of these #neoliberal fuckers are going to use the same excuse for upping their profits and justify their thievery…

I will be talking to some #unionists in #Australia
Negotiating with their employer about #AIAny #union organisers with some thoughts to convey?

I love ❤ that the first foreign head of government received by #PresidentConnolly at Áras an Uachtaráin was the #FirstMinisterOfScotland. #JohnSwinney made a courtesy visit on Wednesday.
British #unionists are having another meltdown. 🙄

What in the name of God is wrong with people who object to bilingual street signs?
If you don't read the #IrishLanguage, that's fine. The #EnglishLanguage sign is still there for you.
In #TheIrishTimes, Newton Emerson denounces "#Belfast’s aggressive signage policy". In reality, the only aggression is from #unionists who want the Irish language off their streets.
#EnoughAlready. Make all signs bilingual

U.S. #Unionists Press #Biden to Remove Cuba from ‘Terrorism’ List
from #WorldOutlook
By Mark Friedman
November 29, 2024Unionists across the United States are organizing a campaign to get fellow trade unionists, elected officials, and others to sign a letter to President Biden demanding he remove Cuba from the U.S. list of "State Sponsors of Terrorism."
“On October 30th, for the 32nd consecutive year, the #UnitedNations General Assembly overwhelmingly condemned the U.S. embargo on #Cuba. Once again, the global community stood in near-unanimous solidarity with the #Cuban people, recognizing that this decades-long policy is not only cruel and dated but also in direct violation of international law."

Really this is what some #unionists have been reduced too - getting annoyed that sometime in the future they won't be able to get tiny shampoo 🫧 bottles in hotels.
Because nothing proves how #British you are at being able to have a tiny bottle of shampoo in your hotel room!
I think they are going to regret giving them the Stormont brake if this is the nonsense they are going to use it for! 😏😮🤦♀️

"The battle of the Bogside was an important catalyst for change, triggering a determined British government intervention that ended the unionist monopoly on power. But it also marked the beginning of 30 years of violent conflict that would claim the lives of more than 3,600 people and bring untold suffering."

Maidin, conas atá tú?
Morning, how are you doing?A small observation, looking at the front of the papers this morning, considering how little attention the return of #NI government is getting. I would say that is something the #Unionists in NI need to be worrying about instead of saying that United Ireland is not in touching distance.
It isn't, we all know that but they have to get their General Election campaigns going some how!
-
Change the record lads! The Protocol/Framework isn't going anywhere - the food labelling has started.
We in NI haven't lost anything...despite what the #Unionists tell you. The King is still the head of state and we still pay our taxes to HMRC!
So what exactly have we lost???
-
Speaking of which, #Unionists need to stop using the #RedHand as a symbol. The Red Hand is a very specifically #Gaelic symbol; for Anglos to use it is crass #CulturalAppropiation, and that's actual cultural appropriation, not the kind of bullshit that is stereotypical of Tumblr.

@ThyckHyde @harriettmb @therightarticle
Northern Ireland is changing quicker than most people thought it would. Also, the #Unionists can't quite come to terms with how much they are out of step with society here.
If anyone argues with that, I will direct you to last week #NI election - Sinn Fein are the largest party at the Assembly & local government. AND - they have the largest numbers of cllrs on Belfast City Council, once dominated by Unionism.
-
@JohnLoader6 @bioluminescently @harriettmb
It is time for some uncomfortable truths for Unionism - they aren't appealing to the leafy wealthy areas of #NI anymore. Sinn Fein did if you look at where they gained seats last week - eg Balmoral! Plus some Unionists who voted must have given a transfer to them.
So what does that tell them about their current path - Unionism isn't coming out to vote & moderate #Unionists are voting for #Alliance is greater numbers. Why Jeff? #NIpolitics

Scotland's Unionist branch offices were all for the SNP being 'transparent' about its membership numbers yet...
- UNIONIST parties have refused to publish membership figures – despite past calls for “transparency” from their opponents.
Scottish Labour, the Scottish Conservatives and the Scottish LibDems all failed to say how many members they had when approached by The National. -
Fancy that!

@harriettmb @JimBliss @JohnLoader6
There is quite a bit of work to be done before that vote is called. We need a white paper from the Irish Government about the way forward. We need citizen assemblies right across the island on the way forward. We can't prepare for unity the way the UK prepared for Brexit.
Harriett, I think you will see a United Ireland. Especially if the #Unionists keep proving to the #middleground, they aren't prepared to make #NI work.
-
@helvick I agree, he would have delivered quite a speech in #Stormont if it had been sitting. What an image that would have been to send to the world. 25 years after the #GoodFridayAgreement everyone of all shades, sitting together, working together for all. It would have won the #Unionists so much goodwill. But they went down the usual path and said no.
Just confirming what we all know...#Unionism isn't capable of operating in the 21st Century.
-
...Its primary purposes were providing protection for #Nazi rallies and assemblies, disrupting the meetings of opposing parties, fighting against the paramilitary units of the opposing parties, [and beating up the opposition parties in the streets...] and intimidating #Romani, trade #unionists, and especially #Jews."
-
@russellt It does, aye. And I've said before that if the #unionists want to cause chaos, all they need do is to all nominate as #ScotGovFM which ever of #Yousaf and #Forbes *loses*, because that could split the #SNP block and force onto the SNP a First Minister that the majority in the SNP do not want.
But either way, the majority of folk in Scotland have no say.
-
For ‘L’anarchie’ and the #individualists around them, syndicalists were wrong to place their efforts in workers, arguing it was wrong for unionists to invest value in the working class, for as long as they remained workers, this had little to do with their realization as individuals. As such unions were held in contempt, maintaining the world as it was constructed by bourgeois reality, therefore #unionists and other working class activists were seen as the unwitting dupes of #capitalism. It’s not hard to see why such ideas would foster resentment from those inside the labour movement, who also suffered persecution from a hostile #bourgeoisie .

If the bùrach of the SNP leadership race is too depressing, the antics of the Labour-Tory-Lib Dem coalition at Edinburgh Council may provide some light relief. That said, Labour voting for compulsory redundancies is no laughing matter.

I suspect you underestimate the #vitriol that #sturgeon has had to endure .... that issue was just one alongside the threat #unionists felt & the jealousy of other parties at her success - but it is one that causes nasty comments from both sides to anyone they percieve might be on the other side of the argument
