If Thuringia Gets Told Who May Be Elected, How About Hibernia?
With the Vermin Party set to increase significantly its representation and influence…
=
The 2015 Government report into paramilitary activity, which came about following the IRA murder of Kevin McGuigan, made clear that Sinn Fein are controlled by the IRA Army Council.
…winning about the same percentage of Eire voters as Fianna Fail and Fine Gael, will we hear from MEPs about the need to impose a cordon sanitaire on the fans of the IRA murder-gang?

=
Will Guy Verhofstadt rant in Strasbourg against the Vermin Party having any role in politics, and will Stéphane Séjourné, the Macronite MEP, rail about the need for ‘new elections to prevent this situation from happening again?’
Meddling In Foreign Elections Bad, Unless…
Or will a typical EUSSR double-standard apply, perfectly okay for Belgian and French mutts to bark mindlessly, meddlesomely, against the German patriot party AfD, but not against Eire’s SF Vermin Party?

I have been trying to make sense of this crisis and I understand ( but don’t agree with ) Merkel’s hostility to the AfD.
Then I read this.
‘Saturday in Berlin, involving Merkel’s CDU and sister Christian Social Union (CSU) party, along with the Social Democrats (SPD), leaders of all three parties ruled out cooperation with the AFD at “all levels” across Germany. They also called on Thuringia to stage fresh state elections despite the recent ballot in the Erfurt chamber.

In other words, you stupid voters are the problem!
You stupid voters made your decision and we don’t like it.
We don’t respect the outcome because not enough of you voted for us, too many of you voted for the opposition. So go back and vote again, keep voting till you get it right. ( or left?)
This is insulting and condescending, not in any way democratic, and in my opinion will not get Merkel the result she wants.

You made me study that German situation but now I see what you’re getting at!
The German political establishment and their foreign friends in Strasbourg hate the AfD because the AfD has a different approach to ‘migrants’ and that is for German voters to decide, who’s got the better approach.
The AFD did well in that province’s elections, and used their stronger position to put a moderate liberal in power rather than a leftwing extremist.
You’d think that Merkel would see the sense in that but instead she wants the whole provincial parliament dissolved and the voters to think again.
That’s not how democracies work and if I was a voter there I would be furious.
I would be even angrier to hear foreign politicians getting stuck into it the way they have. It has nothing to do with foreigners.
Sinn Fein is in every way a more obnoxious party than the AfD could ever be. I have been reading about the AfD and it condemns violence without hesitation.
Sinn Fein never condemns the terrorism of the IRA and a lot of Sinn Feiners have been convicted terrorists, who offer no signs of regret for their crimes.
Now you and I and a lot of other people in Ulster are waiting for MEPs from France or Belgium or anywhere at all to tell Fianna Fail and Fine Gael in Dublin that Sinn Fein must be kept out of power and should not be worked with in any way.
Varadkar has said that, but FF and SF? They share a common view on erasing the border between their country and Ulster.
Ulster people feel very much in danger, listening to the silence from Strasbourg, all that non-existent condemnation of a party with its roots deep in murder.
