This section of ivy on our Boreen was buzzing with activity today as wild honey bees gathered the last of the years pollen from the flowering ivy. This may not be an unusual sight in the country, but this is Limerick city and I'd never seen so many honey bees in the one spot; my guess is that they have a hive nearby. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vya_ul9jYrM
Were you gobsmacked by the result?
Were you standing in your kitchen that morning listening to the news in a state of shock with your jaw resting on the floor?
How could the American people elect such a racist, misogynistic, Mexican hating, sexual assaulting fascist as their president?
If you found yourself asking that question then chances are that you’re a politically illiterate moron that swallows everything the mainstream media spoon feeds you and thinks that celebrity endorsements are more important than actual facts when it comes to forming an opinion.
I used to be of the view that it didn’t matter who they voted for because the American president would always get in. Last time round I had a preference for Obama because Romney’s magic underwear was a bit much to take; they had little difference in domestic policy and practically an identical foreign policy.
As it turned out Obamacare (copied from Romneycare) proved to be a disaster and Obama has been an utter disaster for world peace; he ordered ten times more drone strikes than Bush since he came to power in 2008 killing over 3,000 people, mostly civilians And let’s not forget Libya and Syria; himself and Hillary destroyed those secular Muslim countries, created ISIS in the process, gave the EU the refugee crisis and Hillary had every intention of continuing on a war footing if she got in as she rattled the sabre at Russia and Iran during the debates.
Despite Hillary’s hawkish stance the mainstream media continued with the narrative that Trump couldn’t be trusted with the nuclear codes. Thankfully they are not the only show in town and those that were inclined towards a bit of critical thinking had other sources to consider when forming an opinion, like this article for example:
https://newmatilda.com/2016/03/23/john-pilger-why-hillary-clinton-is-more-dangerous-than-donald-trump/
This registered Democrat voting for Trump interviewed on the street in New York by RTE hit the nail on the head when he described Trump as the “peace candidate”.
Thankfully, the Wicked Witch of the West has been defeated by the Wizard of US.
For me this election was about Nationalism versus Globalism and thankfully the nation destroying globalist agenda has been given a kick in the nuts by Trumps victory; hopefully he can survive long enough without getting assassinated to achieve his goals.
Well done America, well done.

Gretel the Cat gives her 3 kittens their first hunting lesson.
The kittens were 6 weeks old and had never been outside the house. Gretel arrived at the window with a live mouse wriggling from her mouth; I wasn't going to let her in with the mouse, so I let the kittens our for their first hunting lesson. Gretel had killed the mouse by the time the kittens got their and they didn't show much interest in it.

Saturday, 31 July 2021: It was an absolute delight to see Siobhán O'Brien preform live at the Limerick Rally for Freedom; I hadn't seen her perform live since the late 90's when my wife and I were regulars at her gigs in Limerick. I was formerly introduced to her at the Rally for Freedom by her mother, who I know for years, but had never made the connection that Siobhán was the singer/songwriter daughter that she often spoke about. I's a small town all the same.

Siobhán preformed two songs on the day, her own "Mumbo Jumbo Blah Blah Blah" (1994) and a cover of Patti Smiths "People Have The Power"
LYRICS:
*************************************
MUMBO JUMBO BLAH BLAH BLAH
They’re killing our future and it isn’t even here
Create me I said don’t break me
Teach me don’t corupt me just teach me
Infiltrate their minds catch ‘em when they’re young
Control them you’ve taken us off the land
But it’s alright cause we’ll get jobs in packaging
CHORUS:
Mumbo Jumbo and bla bla bla
You think that we think that that means something
You’re all the same to us bla bla bla
You’ve tried to take our pride
You’ve tried to take our souls
Don’t kid yourself that you have won
We have our weapons and we won’t use it for fun
Leaders use your power you’re tangled in a web
Of hypocrisy, bribery, deception and deceit
Far from honestly are you
CHORUS:
Where ‘re the great people who didn’t put their names to anything?
All the Anons,
You stole my tune but the thoughts are still in my head.

PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER
by Patti Smith
I was dreaming in my dreaming
Of an aspect bright and fair
And my sleeping it was broken
But my dream it lingered near
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
That the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
Upon the meek the graces shower
It's decreed the people rule
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
Vengeful aspects became suspect
And bending low as if to hear
And the armies ceased advancing
Because the people had their ear
And the shepherds and the soldiers
Lay beneath the stars
Exchanging visions
And laying arms
To waste in the dust
In the form of shining valleys
Where the pure air recognized
And my senses newly opened
I awakened to the cry
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
The people have the power
Where there were deserts
I saw fountains
Like cream the waters rise
And we strolled there together
With none to laugh or criticize
And the leopard
And

Another stolen car on fire in the Clarina Park site, Ballinacurra Weston. Limerick.
The site once had 49 perfectly good houses that were built in 1996 - the area was depopulated and the houses demolished over a 5-year period (2007 - 2012). The former estate of Clarina Park is now a proposed site and has been "green-lined" for private development in the long-term (8-years).
Three blocks of adjacent homes have also been "red-lined" for demolition and "green-lined" for private development in the Council's new "regeneration" plan without any prior agreement with the owners. The site is not secure because the Council have an "open spaces" policy.
In the interest of residents safety and security the site needs to be properly secured.

Dublin 2017: At a pro abortion rally a member of the Sex Workers Alliance of Ireland explains why they want repeal the 8th amendment of our Constitution, which recognises the right to life of the unborn.
The 8th Amendment was passed by referendum in 1983 and reads as follows:
Article 40.3.3°:
The State acknowledges the right to life of the unborn and, with due regard to the equal right to life of the mother, guarantees in its laws to respect, and, as far as practicable, by its laws to defend and vindicate that right.
Admhaíonn an Stát ceart na mbeo gan breith chun a mbeatha agus, ag féachaint go cuí do chomhcheart na máthar chun a beatha, ráthaíonn sé gan cur isteach lena dhlíthe ar an gceart sin agus ráthaíonn fós an ceart sin a chosaint is a shuíomh lena dhlíthe sa mhéid gur féidir é.

Wednesday, 5th June 2019: US President, Donald J. Trump, arrived in Ireland for a 2-day visit; some of us decided at the last minute that we should be at Shannon Airport to welcome him and counter the Soros funded far-left protesters.
