Youâre too good for this place mate, fuckit thatâs top top material.
Why exactly was Myersy sacked lads?
What did he say that was so bad?
He said that Jewish men and women are good negotiators.
Essentially yea. I donât have much time for him but the reaction to this has been ott.
Engaging in a racial stereotype is a disgrace
They would need more than that to sack him?
He has outraged the snowflakes for sure but any of the snowflakes I know of in Ireland despise the Jews with a fucking passion.
What am I missing?
Youâd want to stop it so
Ah, the cliche about cliches⌠Does the word have a numinous power for you, simply enunciating it? Caffling on about âclichesâ is the Lynx deodorant of these posts, a sourness that is meant to smell like cleanliness.
Like, you are to class and insight what Michael Lowry is to probity. But it is great to see you knock such enjoyment out of yourself, like a yapping clambering Jack Russell. Everyone loves a little doggie.

I thought it was just the Britâs that were outraged at this? Have we a few feathers ruffled on this side of the pond also?
Less of your floccinaucinihilipilification, please.
Iâll go and have a read of the article tonight
before making any conclusions. If that is all the Colonel had to say about Jewish people that they are good negotiators, thatâs not anti-Semitic.

Branding Kevin Myers as either an anti-Semite or a Holocaust denier was âan absolute distortion of the factsâ, according to the Jewish Representative Council of Ireland.
The council, which speaks for the 2,557-strong Irish Jewish Community, came to the sacked columnistâs defence on Monday night and accused his critics abroad of circulating falsehoods about the columnist.
âMore than any other Irish journalist,â said the council in a statement, âhe has written columns about details of the Holocaust over the last three decades that would not otherwise have been known by a substantial Irish audience.
âThe knee-jerk responses from those outside Ireland appear to care little for facts and pass on (along with some media outlets) falsehoods about his previous writings without verification. This has been exacerbated by a thoroughly misleading headline being sent around the world that is wholly unrepresentative of the article to which it refers.â
While it was âunderstandableâ there was a strong reaction and rejection of Myersâ column in the Irish edition of the Sunday Times, âit is wrong that misconceptions and misinformation be circulated about his previous writingsâ.
The statement continued: âKevin Myers inadvertently stumbled into an anti-Semitic trope. Yes, Kevin ought to have known that his bringing the religion of the two BBC presenters into his writings on Sunday would cause concern and upset and that it was both unnecessary and bound to be misunderstood.
âBut the larger picture is that Kevin, who up until now was a respected columnist, has a particular curmudgeonly, cranky, idiosyncratic style. We, who have been reading Kevinâs work over many years and those who know him personally, know that while this was a real error of judgement on his part, also know that he is not an anti-Semite.â
The council said Ireland had become more diverse and Myersâ voice was part of that diversity. âIt would be a shame if Kevin Myersâ voice was lost based on his mistake and other peopleâs misconceptions about his prior writings.â

Nah⌠Not really. But sufficient unto the thread to shut up ( or is âclampâ the word?) a preening Tippite, who happens to be one of the most obnoxious online personae around.
Are You Being Served? comes to TFKâŚ
Around where, bud? What other girls are you flirting with?
still unable to find the post you accused me of saying?
