Venezuela

The Queen of England is not the executive of Britain, useless point not worth engaging with.

We are talking about the leaders of two of the leading opposition parties in the UK & Ireland, who have continued to support dysfunctional socialist states.

So you support the break up of the United Kingdom, yes?

Puerto Rico also needs a bailout, most likely from U.S.

You must be mistaken, they’re not socialist. Apparently it’s only uppity socialist types that get themselves into financial trouble.

Since when is “self-serving” a pejorative term for you?

Isn’t that what your politics is all about, self-serving?

“There’s no such thing as society”, and all that?

Are you gone all socialist on us?

Spending your day picking through my posts. You already quoted that post to try and take me down a rabbit hole, you are very desperate today.

Your support for a dysfunctional, foreign, inbred royal family is ok though?

The British Royal family have had little impact on executive powers in Britain for a couple of centuries. They are a neutered symbol for the United Kingdom.

It’s an utterly pointless comparison brought up to distract from the fact that the left in the UK and Ireland long trumpeted Venezuela as a symbol of anti US capitalist “imperialism”. It’s a failed state and another example of the failure of socialism. You won’t hear a peep out of the Shinners on how great they are now, similar to after Syriza capitulated last summer.

Socialism is evil, a failed and redundant ideology.

Or Ireland under Sinn Fein

The death was announced by vice president Nicolas Maduro, surrounded by other government officials, in a national television broadcast.

Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs Eamon Gilmore said he learned with sadness of the death of Mr Chávez. “He was an important figure on the international stage, as well as in his own country, and I would like to extend my sincere condolences to his family and to the people of Venezuela on his passing.”

Sinn Féin’s Gerry Adams also paid tribute to Mr Chávez, who he said had worked tirelessly to improve the lives of Venezuelan citizens.

“He dedicated himself to building a new and radical society in Venezuela,” said Mr Adams. “His progressive social and economic changes took millions out of poverty. He extended free health care and education for all citizens and his re-election last year with a huge majority was testimony to his vision.”

Mr Adams said Mr Chávez was also a hugely influential figure in South America and in world politics. “He was an energetic and enthusiastic leader and when it was discovered that he had cancer he confronted his illness with the same courage and determination that marked his political life,” he added.
