Irish Abortion Referendum : When No means F**k Off ...

Context : Referendum on May 25th to Repeal the 8th Amendment which protects the life of the unborn to the detriment of the mother.

Yes Vote wants to get rid of the 8th (almost all Political Parties and Women's groups), No Vote wants to keep it all unchanged and continue to ban abortion in Ireland (Catholic Church, RWNJs etc)

No Campaigner John Waters, Journalist and serious loon, was on with Eamon Dunphy (Soccer commentator, former Drivetime Talk show and Bon Viveur i.e. Pisshead) who ironically said he was going to vote no as well. His podcast The Stand on Tunein.com allows people to give their full opinions.

Anyway, these two have history, but this was just funny

Here is the podcast in its rather short length on tunein

2. Everything is relative I suppose, but there are definite issues there. It says a lot when Sinead

O'Connor, his former partner, was worried about his battles with depression !!!

6. Sinead O'Connor was with him?

I'm beginning to think that very talented woman has some serious co-dependency issues.

7. Yes they have a grown daughter too, though he won a

Custody battle with her for the then child. With her bipolar and him being an alcoholic, it made it a difficult situation, especially played out on the national airwaves.

Of course being a reformed alcoholic finding Jesus, he has turned into a zealot. I have a cousin just like that.

4. The Irish Catholic Church has lost almost all credibility on moral subjects

Mass graves in Tuam, the Ryan report on sex abuse coverups, the Magdalen laundries, outright torture in reformatories run by the Church. No wonder the bishops are not listened to in Ireland.

5. Yes, but they're pulling out all the stops for this referendum, and why the campaign was always

going to be dirty.
