For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

We make the news - we make the stories

An opinion after seeing the Photographs at the National Press exhibition in the Photographic Gallery in Meeting Hall square.

We make the news – we are the story

I went to the National Press Photographs of the year exhibition yesterday afternoon. I noticed that off the selected photographs of the news of the year, there were about 7 or 8 people that I knew directly in the Photographs.

There was the classic photograph of Joe Higgins being hauled away by the riot police outside the Dail. There was a montage of different photographs from the protests in Shannon, and I recognised the characters though both the blood and the tears. There is a great shot of women having some sandwiches and tea on top of a wheelie bin in Fingal during the blockades. There is a shot of Wolf beside John Donoghue (gobshite fianna fail minister) as he run’s the gauntlet of protesters outside Leinster house. There is a photograph of the Carrickmines protesters sitting on a wall in front of a team of archaeologists. There is a shot of the Catholic workers coming out of police custody.

What I took away from this exhibition is that after you take away the sports photographs in all the news stories I know the people who are making the news. We are the ones who make the news, because we do not accept things as they are. We protest, we make ourselves heard and long may this continue. Perhaps Indy media should put up a selection of the best photographs featured last year on the site.

Keep up the good fight one and all,

Dermo
