This made me cry. The horror of it all. The intelligent open compassionate beautiful faces of those murdered in 1916. My grandparents went to Dublin and saw this destruction on their honeymoon in July 1916. And they called heir first child born in early 1918 John Ashe. And that’s what the kids on his street always called him when he was young. Then came the civil war. My friend Patricia who gave me loads of money recently to help me out of a jam has had Michael Collins in full military gear in her kitchen wall for years. I must send her this. We got fucked over she and I big time. We knew it was because we were Irish and Catholic and women. But we never really understood the full extent of it. I don’t think she still does. The men of 1916 loved women. How did the so called Free State go so badly wrong. The Irish men of today are worse than the British could ever hope to be. I’m glad my father and his brothers are not alive to witness it. Roll on John Ashe, and Joseph and Brendan and Thomas. X
Shout "Up de Valera!" anytime a politician comes canvassing. No matter what stripe, no matter what part of the world you are in, come out and shout "Up de Valera!" when they come asking for your vote.
@@londoncalling151 a colleague of mine in London years ago. Called Ellen. She was very very beautiful looking, you know slim, tall, grey eyes classical features, etc. She used to be annoyed when the Jehovah’s Witnesses would come knocking her door very early on Saturday or Sunday mornings in Clapham when she was in bed with her bf Steve the painter (and decorator), so she decided to stop them doing this to answer the door completely naked. That worked. The Jehovah’s never came back. I wonder if me now being a middle aged woman who’s indeed lost my her lifelong battle with gravity, if I went to the door anytime one of these assholes comes to my door naked, I should answer the door naked, swigging from a bottle of Buckfast and shouting up de Valera, would that do the trick? It’s worth a try. It would amuse me and sure that’s now my main aim in life. Having realised that freeing Ireland is also a losing battle.

In Norway the state forces us to learn a new made up language called "new-Norwegian", instead of teaching us old Norse.
If we spoke that we could communicate fluently with the Icelandic people, as the Finnish learn Swedish and communicate just fine with them. (They learn that, ergo they can communicate with Danes and Norwegians too.)
It's a shame that countries let languages die out,. it should be an obligatory course for everyone, with no grades, and if they fail or just don't feel like learning it they shouldn't have to.

Ruined the origins of this great Celtic song. It ain't a rebel song
It´s a rebel song, a jacobite song with a better lyric write for Pádraig Pearse. U say Celtic song for a Celtic woman version?
The song refers to Ireland being in posession of "theives" and "foreigners." It refers to the warriors Gráinne Ni Mháille would bring with her as being "Irishmen, not foreigners," and that they will rout the foreigners. Just who do you think the song is referring to as foreigners, the feckin' Muppets? Of course it's a rebel song!

Not to mention Padraic Pearse's later involvement in linking this song to the 1916 Easter Uprising etc. Say no more as Pearce's credentials are clearly established.
