The image they use is below.



Except that picture is doctored, here's the original:

Vote YES if you want LIES and a dark future.

Vote NO to Lisbon for an Irish future.

Scraping the bottom was never so obvious.

you kind of do wonder what the hell is going on here

"we're going to be even more conspiracy theory than that lot of conspiracy theorists over there and to prove it, we're going to use doctored Trotsky photos"

mind boggling.

Oh my god, I am so appalled right now. They are scraping the bottom of the barrel here. Our neutrality is definitely compromised. The explanation of it is something like this: If a member state is under attack, all member states must come their defense, this does not affect Ireland's neutrality (that was in the referendum commission's book). I laughed.

appalling indeed, they obliviously doctored a photo as part of a parody of the socialist party, if thats appalling or scrapping the bottom then you've obliviously lead a very sheltered life
