She has a point when you consider we are crippling our economies over Russias actions but are happy to import from China who have more slaves now than anytime in history or Saudi Arabian oil , the country which beheads its citizens.
So she is going to Moscow to campaign against militarism too, right?!
We send these people to Brussels because they are a noisy nuisance at home. We didn’t expect them to be more embarrassing.
We aren’t the only ones, it’s why Farage got into Brussels but can’t get elected in England.
I would.
whats wrong with what she is saying ?
This was a hard wank but mam didn’t raise no quitters
**We are willing to fight Russia down to the last Ukrainian!**
She could join the chorus of saying the Kremlin is bad, or Putin is evil, or whatever, but she’s not addressing the Kremlin. She has no power over what ‘the bad guys’ do, but how the EU responds.
It isn’t right that we have to appease evil superpowers like Russia, but they’re not going to let NATO set up shop in Ukraine, and the EU isn’t going to go without its first world treats.
You can say Daly is going all ‘whattaboutism’, but six years ago, this sub was ripping her to shreds for protesting US military using Shannon.
She could have washed that hair.

I wouldn’t take it personally. No one is embarrassed. Ever country has their share of obtuse individuals.
> shooting ourselves in the foot
Yeah. Just you wait Mrs. Daly.
All my life a lefty, I’ll never vote for this shower of gombeens again.
Ukarine citizens should picket PBP , that tramp and who ever that clown Mick Wallace is with ….total embarrament….. Russians are using her speech on their TV news .
I’m from Swords which is where Claire hails from. She was a shop steward in Aer Lingus before she became a politician. Based on her behavior in her former role, if she had her way, that airline would still be a bloated semi state con. It’s employees would be wholly unproductive and feckless. And it’ll still cost €500 to fly to London.
She is an absolute embarrassment to Swords, Dublin, Ireland 🇮🇪 And her nuttiness is emblematic of the left’s slide into whacky obscurity.
Yeah yeah I know, there are other bad things too. I get it. But please don’t try to constantly relativise every single problem in the world vis-à-vis American imperialism.
She’s a Russian propaganda mouthpiece. Sad to see to be honest especially considering Irish history.
She’s correct in what she said.
Diversity of opinion is nothing to get embarrased about
Thank fuck polls show that Ireland backs neutrality. The US McCarthyite NATO shills here would have people believe the opposite.
She brings up points to deflect directly dealing with the issue. This whataboutism, as in bringing up the US past actions, and then using our inaction, or condoning, in those cases to be a stance we should take with Russian aggression? This is odd. We are a western democracy, siding with other western democracies. The US and Ireland have a lot more shared interests than Russia and Ireland.
Just because someone’s stance is anticapitalist, it doesn’t mean they have to support a kelptocracy (those in political power stealing the wealth of the country). Russia is not an alternative to capitalism, it is a corrupt police state.
The people of the Ukraine need help, that is the problem at hand. The Russian government, just like the British, cannot be trusted to negotiate in good faith. So sanctions and bolstering the Ukraine with weapons and aid seems like the best way to preserve the Ukraine and help the citizens. Citizens who just want to live in peace.
Yes people have the right to oppose the actions we in the EU are taking, but inaction will lead to more death and suffering of innocent people. If there are any other credible alternatives, let’s hear them. But asking the corrupt Russian government to stop the invasion, or use their words rather than starting a war, is futile.
There is nothing wrong with what she said there.
Are sanctions usually a successful tactic to stop a country engaging in war? I don’t believe they are.
South Africa, bitch. That’s where.
Why should Ireland be embarrassed, when the French have the likes of Le Pen who is funded by Russian banks and poised to actually take over France?
Daly is a minor politician who has no chance of leading a government.
Seriously some people need a bit of cop on, the hysteria over the likes of Daly is a bit much.
WHY IS SHE SAYING THE TRUTH? I’m so mad SHE MUST BE A KREMLIN AGENT!
To those thinking she should shut up, having opposing points of view are key to democracy. If you want voices that disagree with you to be silent, you are doing it wrong.
on a different note, while her phrasing of her thoughts are unusual, asking questions about whether the current measures are in any way effective is reasonable, if it was somebody else in a different tone, I bet you would think differently about it. Separate your opinion of the individual from the contents of what they said and consider it in a vacuum.
To me ,Considering the ruble recovered above where it was trading at after sanctions were initially implemented, not reviewing the effectiveness of current sanctions would be madness.
I think both sides (NATO/ RUS) have their own agenda, we are spectators in a political game with incomplete information, and manipulated narratives.
WE are prolonging the war in Ukraine? By not leaving them defenseless for Russia to murder whoever they please? What a spineless moron.
Its the war hawks, the witch hunters and the jingoists that embarrass me.
Stifling discussion by accusing people of being paid by Putin or even just not being racist against Russians is fucking bizarre.
Remember when Zelenskyy was listing EU countries that supported Ukraine and people got upset because when he got to Ireland he said “well, almost.”…
Whenever you watch international news and they’re showing Irelands position on something, they don’t show speeches in the Dáil, they speeches from the EU parliament. As far as they know, this is Irelands official position.
Wash your fucking hair.
I actually like that she has a platform to present the counter-argument to what we all agree is necessary to stop the slaughter of innocent Ukrainian civilians in Putin’s deranged war. “Oh no our energy bills are going up! Let’s just let nice Mr Putin have Ukraine. Maybe if we throw in the Baltic States he’ll give us a discount for next winter!” Cowardice and self-interest are legitimate standpoints, but surprisingly unpopular.
Quick fact check: The US-led intervention in Afghanistan was legal. IIRC there were 4 separate UN Security Council resolutions authorising military action. It may have been a total shambles but it wasn’t illegal. The Iraq war was the illegal one.
I don’t get it, she make a lot of sense here. Ukraine is not going to win either way. It is an impossible win for Ukraine. Aiding weapons will just making the war longer, and life will lost even more. If Ukraine just lost now. War will stop, no more kill. The comment section kill my brain cells. She is speaking facts here. NATO done horrible shit and US invade the middle east causing millions of innocent to be kill. Ireland need to stop being an imperialist suck up and worry about how Britain is still occupying Northern Ireland. Ireland need to worry about it own situation right now. She have more brain cells than most people in that room.

Would love your arguments to the contrary.
