    Have you all noticed that Sinn Fein's Youtube sites have their comments section turned off denying the public the chance to respond on a public forum, this is what a dictatorship government would do but they can't stop our voice at the election box and we will send Mary Lou and O'Neil packing for betraying the Irish people and supporting the mass influx of Muslims and African criminals into our country.

    Sinn Fein has been ambiguous about being a Nationalist Irish Party since the 1980s with its embrace of all things EU. However it remains a 'separatist' from Britain party.
    Now, SF is a Globalist and Woke Party. It is wedded to the EU.

    800 years of occupation, still continuing to this day. Ireland was know as a country of scolars, artists and poets before the British invaded .We had peace for hundreds of years previous to their invasion, mean while most of Europe were tearing each other to pieces. I wonder if could you even calculate reparations. The hypocrisy of the British 'Empire'. Their legacy is theft rape and murder on an industrial scale, and the wonder why the world has a problem with them.

    I support Irish unification as, in the long term, it is economically more sound as a concept. One island, one people, one economy, one infrastructure, and one government. However, I would not support a Sinn Féin government in Dáil Éireann. By raising the tax of the wealthy and the business organisations, we are pushing them – as well as their capital – outside of the country. They will move abroad and will take their capital with them. It is by keeping these foreign (mostly American) organisations, like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, that provide Ireland its high GDP and high capital through employing day-to-day Irish people. It is through these people, who are usually well paid, that are taxed and provide for the social welfare of the state. I do believe that this tax, however, is not efficiently applied and could be better distributed in order to solve our housing and health sectors. If, or to be honest, when Sinn Féin gets into power, they could destroy the country of Ireland and its means of sourcing wealth by raising taxes and spending. I am more than welcome to hear other perspectives, so feel free to argue against me in the comments or with meanfachmemes on Instagram!

    a little thing about the vote on wether or not they accepted the free-state. The government was founded with women having a right to vote, however the vote was rushed through so that women of the time, who were mostly anti-treaty, would not be able to cast a vote on the treaty.

    Sinn Fein were not actually involved in the Easter Rising. The media and British government incorrectly blamed them which ended up benefiting the party

    This video. Is very incorrect. It is an a example of history beeing written by the winners. Show me a video where we were shot in the face for speaking our own thounge. Show me a video where we rebelled for 800 years. This is out right an example of english retoric.

    As an Irishman, and as we approach an imminent general Election, I hope to God the Irish people start to see sense and realise that Sinn Fein policies will absolutely destroy this country’s economy and I mean destroy it! Yes we have a terrible Housing Crises, but so does every major economy in the world and the current Irish government is in fact making inroads into dealing with that despite reports of growing homelessness. But every have decent economist and academic I have spoken to have effectively guaranteed that if the Irish electorate in the next election vote so as to effectively flush themselves down the proverbial populist toilet, Sinn Fein will spend all around them (effectively spending the billions which the economic policies of current government and the government before that brought in) and, by doing so, will effectively ensure that Ireland’s economy will be hollowed out, such that in a decade or two the economy will start to resemble something from the 80s again. Also, any government whose primary agenda is not economic growth, but rather something like Irish Reunification, will inevitably make an absolute hash of the economy – look at what happened to the UK under a Tory Party principally focused on Brexit, or to Scotland under the SNP whose primary agenda was Scottish Independence. Sinn Fein is a populist party who will say anything, irrespective of whether it makes sense or presents a cohesive vision for the country or is achievable in any real sense, provided it will ring popular with the electorate. These are the people who will moan and bitch about the housing crises until the cows come home, but will at the same time picket against a new housing development so as to prevent it coming on line – with the result that they can do more sh*t stirring in the Dail about nothing been done about housing.

    Sinn Fein are just like the SNP. The nationalist label is just a relic from history. They are actually hard left socialist who believe an Irish homeland is a racist concept.
    The NP is a real Irish nationalist party.

    You really do not have a true appreciation of Irish history, that you would talk about "perceived discrimination" is really abhorrent in the context of all that followed in NI. You are not master of your brief here, your analysis is facile and disturbing, please don't make videos like this with such scant knowledge.

    A vote for sein fein is a vote for the only left wing party in Ireland. Fiana Gael and Fianna Fail are both right wing parties.

    Sinn Fein have ceased to be a nationalist party. They are purely a socialist party. This is why they support mass immigration into Ireland.
    The men who fought for Irelands freedom believed in God and rejected marxism the complete opposite of Sinn Fein today.

    Simple people "northern Ireland citizens go across their border to main Ireland (confusing I know, but it doesn't need to be that way😢) and see how their fellow brothers & sisters are much better off financially. So the good people of Northern Ireland want that lifestyle as well. DUP are done for now.what did they do for northern Ireland while in power?? I will call it now… in nxt 10 years Ireland will become whole again 🤝❤with a peace deal ( under labour? It will never happen under NASTY tory Party) How good does it feel to know the NASTY tory PARTY are done for a generation🤞🤞🙏🖖🖕
