Micheal Martin, Leo Varadkar and Eamon Rya In February of this year, Irish Tanaiste, Leo Vardakar resorted to a well established Bolshevik tactic when he labelled a gathering of thousands of Irish people, who were marching through Dublin City in protest of the nation s farcical COVID lockdown policy, as bonkers . Doing so, Varadakar made it clear, in a roundabout way, that anyone who dissents against the government could be assumed mentally unwell, sectioned and placed in a looney farm. He had confirmed that the Stalinist ploy to rid the country of opposition by locking them up in mental asylums had been adopted by the sitting Fianna Fail/Fine Gael/Green Party, World Economic Forum-sponsored cartel. On pointing this out to the hypnotised normies of Europe s only fluoride-mandating nation, I was laughed at and fobbed off as a tin-hat wearing zany conspiracy theorist.

VISITORS to the Lakeland Motor Museum can roll back the years with a very special two-wheeler which once belonged to one of the most prominent members of the Royal family. Evocative of the Mod culture of the 1960s, Vespas were the two-wheeled stars of the classic British film Quadrophenia and are an enduring symbol of teenage rebellion and carefree youth. They also became the ‘must have’ fashion accessory for any self-respecting Mod, with around two million Vespas sold in 1960 and sales shooting up to the four million mark by 1970. In more recent decades, the Vespa continued to cement its reputation as a design icon, particularly in Italy where they represent adventure and romance.
