History is always great craic as there are many people who have their own version of it and swear their version is true, despite contraindicatory evidence. I told a story during a recent interview in relation to the false claims made by Catherine Corless and others that children were starved to death by the women…

Since the war began in Ukraine, Ireland’s state broadcaster has begun nearly every one of its news bulletins with the gospel according to Zelenskyy. The Irish people, along with the people in most western countries, have been given a blinkered view of events and their causes, not because they cannot be trusted to do any…

Truth is the first casualty of war. In war, all armies commit atrocities. Beware of false flag operations. These are the first three maxims of war upon which impartial investigation and recording of events are built. These maxims appear to be completely unknown to Irish journalists reporting on the war in Ukraine. Accordingly, their reporting…

Broadsheet.ie is a guttersnipe website which gives vent to a certain type of Irish prejudices and bias. There is no editorial control and so the contributors are free to express any kind of drivel so long as it supports a particular narrative. Bodger, whose real name is John Ryan, is a fervent believer in anti-Catholic…

RTÉ is perusing it anti-Catholic agenda with gusto again this week with not one, but two false history programmes. Historians are taught that events in history cannot be properly understood unless they are set against the correct historical background. Without valid explanations, people will naturally interpret events through the eyes of today. It is a…

In direct contradiction of a commission of investigation findings, RTÉ continues to pursue its anti-Catholic agenda using the full gamut of propaganda tools. Like the mother and baby homes commission report which found no abuse took place at these institutions, RTÉ has ignored its findings and continues to imply that women took other women into…

Better to Remain Silent and Be Thought a Fool than to Speak and Remove All Doubt Damien O’Reilly, broadcaster and farming journalist, has become one of the many people in Irish public life to be caught red-handed using ignorance while trying to appear intelligent. O’Reilly wrote last year in the Farmer’s Journal that ‘while not…

Leo’s Varadkar’s apology following the publication of the final report of the commission of investigation into mother and baby homes proved once and for all that even those who are qualified as a medical doctor can be quite unintelligent. It would appear that Varadkar never bothered reading the final report, choosing instead to repeat the…

Yet another carbuncle has been added to the corpus of Ireland’s mother and baby homes saga. In a recent judgement, the Irish High Court has ruled that a Circuit Court Judge, a Professor of Law and a Professor of history did not know the first thing about law and so ‘acted unlawfully’. I imagine the…

Irish taxpayers are being forced to pay massive a compensation bill — costing each worker an average of €355 — for supposed historic abuse that never happened. Government officials estimate that the compensation scheme will have a final cost €800 million. However, these are probably the same people who estimated that the Ryan Commission would…
