With your help we can have the Union Jack flying over Trinners again.

No need to be like that old bean. With a good ascendancy name like Shane you should have a lot in common with us.

We are having a Taig hunt around the cricket grounds this afternoon. Why dont you and the rest of your chappies join in?

Didn't know any of you chappies were bright enough to get into Trinners. Looking forward to meeting you. We should be able to do some joint activities against those beastly provos.

We have a motion coming up condemning Bloody Sunday commemorationa as sectarian. I just know you will second it.

"by TROTWATCH Tue, Jan 21 2003, 2:43pm

This is the just the type of behaviour which turns students off serious protest. Why alienate Society members? Do you have a mania for shouting?

You must be getting your ideas from SY. No wonder the UCD turnout at serious student demos is so disappointing"

What do suggest we do "Trotwatch"? Should there be a silent a silent protest or should we do nothing.

Your attitude to SY is childish. Our members in UCD have been to the front of CFE work working with other groups trying to mobilise students. Perhaps you should get involved and stop petty attacks against dedicated student activists.

'just this type of childish behaviour' - ?????
What the....?
BERTIE AHERN
Do I need to underline it? For fuck sake.
U expect us not to protest? And this would be...all grown up??
Yeah.
I have a list to the floor of reasons to dislike that man and sitting back doing nothing would be, more grown up than finding a way to express my opinon?
sure

Trotwatch who exactly are you?

Reveal your identity instead of hiding behind the mask of a cover name. Or are you unable to fully defend your own ideas and the ideas of your organisation publicly?

Maybe it was you that played the really tretcherous role in the UCD fees demos?

Socialist Alternative are not Trotskyists, nor do they claim to be. They border on anarchism and in reality have no clear politics.

The visit of Ahern to ucd this week should give students a great chance to make our views on the fees issue known to the Taoiseach.

Protesters in ucd have blockaded and protested at the visits of governemnt ministers this year. Brian Lenihan, Noel Dempsey, Michael McDowell have all visited the college, and at all time students showed them their anger about the proposed re-introduction of fees.

Now that the Taoiseach is coming out, all students, regardless of their political affiliation, should get active and get angry at this man that wishes to cut back in education.

You lost the vote at a debate , so that makes those whose arguments won the day 'fuckwits'?

Run that by me again!

These tactics of disrupting the events of every society which has a FF or PD speaker will not help to build CFE. Its just turning people off.
