Daily Ireland and now this.
Shame.
Excellent. If it collapses it means no more being harrassed in the local by the dregs who go around trying to flog it on Friday nights

The provisonals are an establishment party with similar access to the pages of the national and local papers as any other establishment party.
Party rags are propaganda rags. Always have been. Always will be. No exceptions. Let it die
Any removal, of any part of the media is something any democrat should feel saddened by..
Remember, if we all had the same opinions on everything, the world would be a very dull place
I am an AP/RN buyer.. so perhaps my opinion will be called biased.. but I also buy the Daily Mail...
I have no problem trusting my own ability to distinguish between biased reporting.. it is only those who are ignorant enough to be unable to distinguish for themselves, who fear dissenting voices to their own opinions
Why ?
Or course party papers are propaganda tools.. if you dont read it, why should its existence bother you ?
Well for one reason I have their lackeys pestering me in the pub on friday night trying to flog it
It served its purpose, the excellent quality of its elected representatives are now sought
after everywhere
