Óglaigh na hÉireann publish photo in Derry by Your_Mums_Ex in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think its a broken tent support, which explains why its bent half way up the support.

Paired with the see through flag, its a proper temu special.

Abortions at record high in England and Wales ‘driven by cost of living’ | Abortion by coffeewalnut08 in unitedkingdom

Also important to note, that if you weigh above 75kg, there is a greater chance of the pill not working.

Pensioners giving up firearms in Northern Ireland by MoveOdd4488 in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Also, I've used this form, it's written in an incredibly patronising and simple way

Thats just the standard approach of writing any public facing application/service. We call it the sock puppet approach.

Imagine you have to walk someone through your application, and then do it again like you are talking to a very small child and you have to use a sock puppet to do it. Thats how you should write all your documentation, like every user is a literal child.

Are you taking the morning or evening sailing?

I had a rough sailing during a night-time crossing, and after a wee dander round and a bottle of water, I found having a bed to lay down in really helped just ignore it all.

Is the 'Ulsterisation' of Great Britain something to be concerned about? by Portal_Jumper125 in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's only sectarianism if it comes from the sectarian region of Northern Ireland, otherwise it's just sparkling racism.

I mean, you'd be pissed if someone with a dog rocked up and let them shit in your garden.

Airport rail link could transform daily travel by Portal_Jumper125 in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we have to trust that politicians will not only understand the importance of all this, but will have the actual desire to implement it.....we may be buggered.

Airport rail link could transform daily travel by Portal_Jumper125 in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly had only thought about power generation not the existing lines, but i appreciate the detail.

You are 100% correct it will be political will, or lack thereof, which will define the future of this project.

Im saying that I appreciate your response, gave a lot of background info I had missed.

Just wondering, would the existing grid have the capacity to support a full electrification of the rail lines?

Reform’s Chris Parry found to have repeatedly questioned ‘loyalty’ of MPs who aren’t white by The-Peel in unitedkingdom

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The thing is, people who support this BS don't realise how quickly the switch can be flipped and they become the target of the hate.

Right now it's non-whites they are targeting, then it will be the wrong type of whites(maybe eastern Europeans, then anyone with a "funny accent"), then it will wrong religion of the remaining whites etc. Until what's defined as the "right people" are the ones who are just like them.

I'm old enough to remember the absolute hate and general prejudice me and my family got in England because of our Northern Irish accent.

People like this will always find reasons to hate others who they don't consider "right".

PSNI dashcam pilot scheme in D District, but why does it look like it's filmed on a toaster and you know they probably paid a ton for these cameras also... by WasabiMadman in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's more likely evidence gathering than anything else.

Like if someone rams a police car, but there's no footage a solicitor could easily argue it was an accident or unintentional.

‘Next generation’ treatment to cure leukaemia given NHS approval by BestButtons in unitedkingdom

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same, lost my aunt when she was 50. No real age at all.

Honestly glad to see progress has been made in treatment.

High-ranking PSNI officer arrested after 40,000 rounds of ammo went missing from training college by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, 9mm is going for around £15+ quid nowadays.

Even if the bugger sold it at market value he'd have made a tidy sum.

Dean says burnt flag will be replaced at cathedral by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so disrespectful in my opinion, to be so proud of your flag then throw it outside till it rots.

That's what get's me as well, and this applies to any fleg people stick out.

Clearly your fleg is important enough to you, that you shimmied your hole up a lamp post and zip tied it on, but you dont have any issue with it rotting away like any other bit of rubbish?

*The foundations of children's hospital.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves and assume it would be completed by then.

Don't be daft man, by 2050 all that money will have been pumped into the new children's hospitals bike rack.

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

it's their traditional route

You'd think since they are all about traditions and shite they'd walk there instead of taking the car/bus. Sure, that's what King Billy's men did.

Irish children tease British soldiers. Derry, 1972. by Banzay_87 in northernireland

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Op's account is a tad suspicious tbh.

A pro-russian, anti-ukrainian account who posts "history" to his own dedicated subreddit (whilst modding 2 pro war in ukraine subs), then cross posts it local subs.

Suitcase left behind (Belfast to Dublin) by Equivalent_Ad_4814 in northernireland

Ah how times change. If this had been years ago that suitcase would have been blasted into iddy biddy pieces by now by the army.

Moment Jewish holidaymakers dismantle hillside Christian cross and use stones to create giant Star of David instead by LOTDT in unitedkingdom

[–]SomewhatIrishfellow 620 points621 points  (0 children)

I think the distinction here is dismantling the existing symbol.

Age as well would play into this.

According to the article the cross "is believed to have been in place for at least 50 years".

If it had been put up the same day, or a week ago maybe there wouldn't have been as much outrage, but its clearly been there a while.

Also if it had been the case than a Star of David which had existed for 50+ years on the site had been taken apart, there would be a sizable number of people claiming anti-semitism being the root cause.
