There's a reason the ECHR is a core obligation in the GFA. You'd think a minister in Dublin would know what that reason is, and have the wit not to aid the narratives that will be used to undermine or renege on the GFA if/when a belligerent Faragist government emerges over the water.
The Minister thinks that the prohibition on torture and inhuman and degrading treatment is being interpreted too broadly. So, he's fine with a bit of light torture? Moderate degradation? Maybe if it's only *slightly* inhuman.
He's a moral vacuum.

Judge Kerr said he accepted that this was not a terrorist case but that the pipe bombs had been left to "cause fear and distress and in order to achieve a sectarian aim of stopping the GAA using public pitches".

Fantastic advice
If you’re a domestic abuse victim, tell the companies you pay bills to.
Let them put a marker on your account, don’t wait until you need to plead for help as things have reached rock bottom and your credit file tanks.
I’ve worked in various industries where I wish people knew this sooner.

The 2nd half of the sentence will be him released on license, so he will really serve 18 months. Being white and a Union Jack waver means it's not classed as terrorism. Imagine the sentence and the coverage this would get if he was a muslim person who put live pipe bombs on people's cars in England.
A founding member of the East Belfast GAA Club targeted with pipe bombs said it "left scars on people's lives."
It comes as a 59-year old man convicted by a jury of placing pipe bombs at playing fields in east Belfast was handed a three-year sentence.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

250+ LGBTQ people were subjected to Electric Shock Aversion Therapy in NHS hospitals between 1965 and 1972.
That’s (literally) shocking, right?
What’s also shocking is that so called ‘conversion therapy’ is still legal in the UK now.
It’s beyond time that all LGBTQ conversion practices were banned.
