Aengus Ó Snodaigh and his campaigners canvassing yesterday were met with violent and abusive threats by a man shouting about homelessness. When people can’t canvas safely in their area anymore then democracy has failed

You mean to tell me our policy of appeasement towards these Far Right lunatics has only emboldened them?
Well I for one am shocked. SHOCKED!
Has mcgregor not got better things to be doing
He’s not even in government?
The irony here is overwhelming considering old Aengus and his family’s previous form
AOS might send his mates around in a car to deal with this guy
This person does not care about homeless people, they just want an excuse to be belligerent.
I say a lot of people on that street would vote for Aengus if he told them that he told the camera man to fuck off.
I find it amazing that SF have never been in power yet the right are targeting them as the sell outs.
Do they feel this passionately against FF and FG..the ones who have been in power for almost a century?!
The 13k homeless and the 1000+ IP lads in tents on the streets are not because of SF policy. I just don’t get it!!
The country was a better place when these lads hung out in the bookies from Mon-Fri, 9-5.
Sure Sinn Fein is not the government in power, should be not be going for the government in power?
“Democracy has failed” is way over the top. It’s shitty behaviour, but clickbait phrasing is unnecessary.
It’ll take more than this unhinged gowl to bring down democracy.
This guys an absolute loolah and probably should be in jail. But last election, if he voted at all, it would have been SF. I can see a lot of their support bleeding to lunatic fringe or turning on them altogether. But again these eejits don’t tend to vote so, might not have a big electoral effect on SF.
lol he has no idea how anything works clearly.
Can’t wait for SF to come into power.
I’ve had dogs that were more civilised. Absolute dregs of society.
The bullies become the bullied.
Listened to it a couple of times and Aengus never even told him to fuck off. Junkie cunt foaming over nothing while claiming it’s on video lol
Everyone’s a Karen now.
It’s one of those videos where you know exactly what the guys shouting sounds like before you turn up the volume.
Democracy has benefited the politicians only. They have failed the people the represent and they don’t like being called out on it.
Remember aengus is the lad who brought 2 IRA members into the dail to spy as well as have canvassers being Ira members.
That lad sounds like he’s on a benzo rage.
That accent….
Whatever your political views, that is reprehensible and unacceptable levels of vitriol towards a canvasser, O’Snodaigh in this case.
Shame on that person. Me thinks he has more problems than he realises.
As for calling O’Snodaigh a sell out – the man doesn’t have a clue.
Democracy has failed, stop talking shite
There was probably ‘a drop’ about to go down on that street and this young gentleman caused a commotion with the aul misdirection.
This happens to all politicians. A few scumbags mouthing off doesn’t mean “democracy has failed”.
Several FG local clinics have been attacked as has Carole Nolan’s. That’s more serious than this.
I see Fergus Power the half wit promoting this and the amount of bot accounts commenting is frightening.
Sinn Fein a party which advocated violence as a means to political objectives reaping what it has sown
He cares so much about the Irish people but he uses slurs for the Traveller community very easily the dirtbag
As soon as I heard that dooblin accent…so predictable, so ignorant,so aggressive….they are an embarrassment.

These extremists need to fuck off. They are getting too bold now.
He actually put his hands on Aengus, so that’s assault.
