Gully, what's the collective noun for members of Sinn Fein? Obviously it's not "Sinners"...

While I prefer "Terrorists" or even "Judean People Frontists" the correct name is actually "Shinners". (As it make it looks Irish, putting a h after the first letter in a word is common in certain gaelic constructions.)

Thank you.

Echos of UK Labour, circa June 2009... only a lot more drastic.

I see your papers are pretty much the same as ours; just a tad more sweary...

Speaking of tax credits, are they cutting any credits for the movie and television industry?

Not specifically, so far as I noticed.

OK, thanks.

They apparently lack confidence in the cover provided by Article 15.12 of the Constitution:
Quote from: Restricted
You must be logged in to read this quote.


At 02.30, the Independent published: "Murphy uses Dáil privilege to raise O'Brien finances".

Nothing in The Examiner or on NewsTalk or Today FM yet that I can see.

Reminds me of something Trafigura once tried to pull in the UK:

Thanks for the clarification re Averil Power, BTW.
