Propaganda


No Propaganda

The ‘No to AV’ campaign doesn’t seem to have a single cogent argument with which to bolster its cause and is resorting to totally fallacious scare tactics involving the BNP and using the over-worn phrase: “It will lead to the loser winning.”

No it won’t, as AV redefines the term ‘winner’ to mean someone with majority support, as it should, rather than someone with minority support.

The ‘No’ campaign’s PR is beginning to sound like it was written by Gaddafi or al Assad – i.e. repeating mantras completely devoid of the concept of reality in the hope that if repeated long enough the stupid electorate will come to believe it.

Mind you, that strategy does work on the gullible.


Real IRA Propaganda

A member of the Real IRA read out a statement in a cemetery in Northern Ireland yesterday in the full glare of the media spotlight.

Can anyone tell me why the police didn’t know he was going to be there and arrest him for being a member of a banned organisation and making threats to kill policemen?

I believe the no campaign got Ian Paisley in to consult..

WRT the IRA, misplaced respect for religious & cultural sensibilities at work again, I'm sure no such hesitance would have been shown if the statement had been read out in Donegall square.
