Sinn Féin distances itself from councillor urging people to attend protest over masks in schools

  1. SF spend a lot of time distancing themselves from people they’ve selected to represent them

  2. > the councillor said masks had been “bluntly imposed” on schools overnight.

    > He added in the post that this had been done with “zero consultation or the standard HIQA Risk Assessment, and as a result of government failure to introduce other mitigation measures as proposed”.

    Good points IMO

    Edit: Funny to see people disagreeing with this but when the IT article was posted the other day on how poorly the introduction of masks in schools was handled most people agreed with it.

  3. This is the same bloke who had organised a memorial service last year for Eddie O’Brien, a young man who died when a bomb he was carrying went off on a bus in London in the 90s. Also see: terrorism.

    O’Suilleabháin cancelled it, IIRC citing something like abuse towards O’Briens family as the reason for it not going ahead. He’s scum.

  4. Seeing as Ó Snodaigh was making representations in the Dáil for a “distraught” woman who claimed her kids couldn’t wear masks but didn’t have a letter of exemption, I dunno how against party policy this is.

  5. Lol par for the course. On a somewhat related topic I wonder will they get rid of the anti-fluoride video on their YouTube channel anytime soon

  6. SF getting into power will be the shock that will force them to get rid of these gobshites. Either that or it’ll be the end of SF as a ‘serious’ party that people out side of their base will vote for.

  7. This is cheap easy journalism. Every fruit cake had a few nuts in in (I fairness SF prob has a few more) but let’s not forget the politically affiliated judge and the EU commissioner that decided social distancing didn’t apply to them?

    By all means slap SF, but on meaningful topics such as their contradictory policies on fracking and fox hunting on each side of the border. Or their ongoing NIMBY policy of objecting to planning permission for new homes.

    But not this pointless distraction.
