They've been pumping out articles in the last while about the current "threat to democracy" — a toxic environment politicians supposedly now face and the fear it will deter people from entering politics (see here & here), but this is how Áine Ní Chonaill was treated as far back as 1998 when she was calling out the abuse of the asylum system. Ní Chonaill is a mild-mannered and well-spoken former teacher from Cork who dared to engage the political system by creating a party called the Immigration Control Platform after becoming disturbed by the abuse of the asylum system which nobody else would address. Her reward was instant vilification in the media and attacks by ANTIFA to shut down her rallies and scare off any support. It worked to a degree as the energy on the streets today is a long over-due delayed reaction against a system which seeks to suppress any real political opposition to it with no complaints entertained. They created the toxic environment. 👉🏻join Late Stage Ireland
