Clare Daly is in bed with Qatar too
Seems like a weird way to decide if something is a genocide. I suppose it’s a nice way to poke Putin in the eye, but has it got meaning outside of that? My understanding, from reading /r/askhistorians is that historians don’t really have consensus on the issue.
(I am pro Ukraine/ anti-Putin)
Why is Clare Daly such a gowl?
How could someone from a country such as ours, that *also experienced a famine that was arguably genocide*, think this doesn’t apply?
On that note, the EU should have a similar motion for An Gorta Mór.
Just seen this on Europe. Eu prosecutor asking parliament to strip the 2 feckers of their immunity. Didn’t know meps were given immunity. Asking for corruption

How did Sinn Fein vote this time? They abstained on the vote to declare Russia a sponsor of state terrorism.
Her support for all things Russian is undeniable at this stage. The question is, is she just a useful idiot for Putin or is she getting anything in return?
I hope she’s voted out next election. I’ll be doing my part in my constituency to boot Mick Wallace
Of course she did, bought and paid for
Brussels would want to start looking into her next when they’re done with the current corrupt gobshites
Tankies going mad that they’re recognising it. Delighted for them. Spas.
Fuckin embarrassment
Of course she did.
When can we get her out?
I know absolutely nothing about the Holodomor famine or whether it was a genocide or not.
Has the EU Parliament discussed whether the Irish Famine was a genocide or not? Why not I wonder? Could it be because it was ages ago, it is not a pressing issue, and it would demonise Britain – not currently a country we are being encouraged to hate? Is this debate really the most pressing issue for the EU? Or is this just another cheap and easy way to demonise Russia?
I find it so humiliating how easily the public is made to hate whoever it is convenient to hate this month and how enthusiastically people comply. It’s like the U.S. in the 50s for christ sake
