Politics

I've decided to resign from politics. Ireland just isn't ready for what I represent. The people. After I wasn't elected in last years election, I went into a drug-fuelled spiral of depression which goes some way to explaining why my blog posts have dried up for a year.
I shall endeavour to pick myself up and reevaluate my life, beliefs and launch this blog annew.

Foreigners

You can't have a decent conversation with most foreigners. They don't understand a thing I say.
I wouldn't mind them if they weren't so immigrant.

People first, Children second!

I don't have children myself, but if I did, I would be appalled at the way our Government coninues to put their wellfare before that of the adult populace!
What do children contribute? Nothing, yet we can't move for childrens hospitals in our areas!
87% of children don't pay tax, and a whopping 99.8% don't even bother to vote!
Then why are we adults treated like second hand citizens in our own country?
If I get elected, children will be taken off the political agenda and thrust back into the schools where they belong!

JB Looks to Sport

I have drawn up a pan to build 6-8 world class stadia dotted around Ireland within the next 5 years. These would be in addition to Croker and Landsdowne.
We would launch a bid to hold the 2022 world cup and rejuvinate the nation.
The initial 6 would be located in:
Kinsale, Letterkenny, Dundalk, Roscommon, Millstreet and Lisdoonvarna.

When the stadia aren't being used, they could be packed with prisoners from our overcrowded prisons.
And, of course, the mentally disabled.

Nursing

In my opinion, nursing is a vocation. A calling.
Sure, aren't they lucky to be paid at all?

No Party Policy

As an independent candidate, I can put forward my own views without my party silencing me.
You call that a party, I call it bullying.
I almost joined Fine Gael, until some jumped up yuppie from Mayo tried to tell me what to do.
He said, 'Take a seat!'
I said, 'Not for your party I won't!' and I stormed out of his office.
I then turned down Labour, PDs, FF and the socialist party.
The Greens disagreed with my Stadium erection policy (Lots more) and the socialists said I was too obnoxious.
I'm YOUR man, nobody elses.
