I might be wrong, but I think the parties Zelenskyy has banned are ones that are pro-Russian.. so the ban kind of makes sense, given that the war is with, um… Russia..
I’ve given PBP a high preference when voting before. Never again.
Don’t forget in Northern Ireland they campaigned for brexit. I bet they’re riddled with Russian donations like the Tory’s. Odd bedfellows.
They are fucking dickhead,
The absolute state of that. Of course the sanctions are bolstering the Putin regime… how did they come up with that?
Contrarians For Attention.
Sickened, I’ve given them a low preference on the voting ballot before, never doing that again.
On one hand, they oppose sanctions against Russia because it hurts the ordinary people there more than it does the government.
Imagine if they cared about the ordinary people of Ukraine as much.
You know the ones fleeing their homes.
Bullshit. The Russians are doing fine under the sanctions. Hell when McDonalds pulled out they took over the premises and made them all into a new russian branded chain. Russia has enough resources domestically to only really need minor trade with China and India to get by without losing anything. Theyre not siding with the Russian people. The Russian people are doing fine.
Plenty of reasons to not clap for Zelensky from him outlawing opposition parties to supporting the neo-nazi elements in Ukrainian society. Pick one of those and stick with it dont use a bullshit argument.
PBP were a fucking joke party before. Christ I’ve never seen a bigger bunch of clowns in my life. I remember when one of their candidates and a party member went on Vincent Brown and declared that we should raise the corporation tax, and if Google pulls out we should make our own Google to rival it. Completely detached from reality.
Stupid fucking cunts
So how do they suggest ending the war?
PBP …. publicity before people
Go ….f…..uck yourself . 100,000 Ukarine war victims coming here …you utter gobshite.
The same PBP that frequently calls for sanctions against Israel and it’s working people as part of the BDS movement?
PBP are wrong about this, which is harmful to the left. There are some of us who see that this is clearly a case of Russian imperialism and socialists should want Russia to be thrown out of Ukraine. https://independentleft.ie/statement_ukraine/
I gave PBP and The Greens high preference in my vote for the last election. Had such high hopes. Welp.
Oh wow it would hurt the majority of russian and moskals who, in their majority, actually support this war. God forbid they wouldn’t be able to buy commodities like sugar or buckwheat while the Ukrainian people are getting shelled to death.
Pricks before people.

Where’s the People before Profit in that?
Ukraine banned parties because its a war and they need to prevent a puppet government being installed.
If anyone voted PBP, they should be ashamed.
Putin and Brexit advocates dressed up as a socialist party.
Somebody somewhere is getting paid. Not the rank and file though.
They’re easily led.
Brave stance from them, not sure it will play out well for them in the end. I’ll never vote for them again as a result
I’m trying to see their point. Sure, banning a party is not nice. It silences a group in a way.
But in this context, the parties are Pro Russia, they want Ukraine to be close to Russia or re-integrated into Russia.
Russia, isn’t democratic.
So is it undemocratic to ban parties who are supporting an undemocratic system?
IMO, no. And right now was not the time to go on about that.
“Ah here lads, where did ye lot learn how to be invaded? Ye’re making a fuckin hames of it.”
I have always voted for PBP. Not anymore.
This is a horrifying prospect.

> Let’s monitor everyone who does or doesn’t clap for a specific speech, because if you don’t clap for a speech you’re a terrible person
I am not very well informed. In what way are sanctions against Russia bolstering the Putin regime?
I’m sure they presented a well reasoned alternative to sanctions.
Pretty simply… both Putin and PBP want to restore the former Russian Empire/USSR respectively.
PBP are a fucking disgrace, why don’t they put forward a plan on dealing with Putin?

On the other hand, [we urge all our members and supporters to continue the boycott of Israeli goods](https://www.pbp.ie/apartheid-israel-the-latest-episode/).
If they had a brain they’d be dangerous.
