The Irish media are continuing their campaign to legitimise far-right politics, hope this helps to make sense of the whole situation
Maria Steen was on RTÉ Radio 1, the country’s most listened to radio station, this morning lamenting the lack of conservative voices in our national media.

She then read from an article by Brenda Power, published in the most widely read national newspaper.

The Holy Joes want less sex. They also want more babies. Someone needs to have a chat. The old Catholic sex education seems to have missed a bit.

Both the Irish Times and The Journal running articles about Steen but the headline is about that bag and not her three tier marriage system.

NEED TO KNOW:

There are over 20,000 species of bees across the planet.

Around 90% of these bee species are Solitary Bees.

40% of bee species are endangered.

There are only 8 honey bee species.

Honey bees are not endangered.

Living in Ireland is like a monkey paw wish, you get to live in one of the most scenic parts of the world with rich culture and sound people, but you're stuck with the same FF and FG governments over and over who won't lift a finger for those who need it, you can't afford a home, and coddle exists.

Steen's suggestion is unworkable nonsense and she knows it. You're either married or you're not.
Maria Steen, she of the Holy Handbag, argues in the Times that we should introduce a form of marriage with "no possibility of divorce." Maybe she is too young to remember that we already tried this. It ended very badly for some - that's why we introduced divorce.

Israeli strikes kill 11 in Gaza.

Let's look at this RTÉ story:

Seven paragraphs on what Israel says.
Three *both sides* paragraphs.
One paragraph reporting on the victims.

I was at a party and few years ago when this discussion came up. The only opponents of UBI in the room were the people who said they themselves would "abuse" it.
They assumed the rest of us are as lazy as they are so they'd prefer that nobody has it. It's nonsense.

Don't think people shouldn't have opinions on other countries On Here but do think before replying you should have to take a brief questionnaire to determine that you understand which country is being discussed and have a basic understanding of the politics/language/social norms/infrastructure of it
