Joe NoonanPro tip: When MM reaches for the 'anti-European' slur, he is defending someone up to no good, using the EU.
When he is front-paged doing so by the SIndo, watch this space.
He uses it like they use "Anti-American" thar lear, to shut off debate. To end thinking.
One candidate is onto him.
Ivan Yates would approve the tactic.
SIndo give HH a full page today. She uses the i/v to ask "legitimate questions", denying any smear. Naturally.
Maybe they will give CC a soft full page interview next Sunday. In fairness to us readers who like to weigh both sides.

I hear HH is singing that tunlesss line today. Pity but it is revealing.

There is no room for dissent in the mean spirited MM or HH concept of Europe.
They are the true ‘anti-Europeans’ in that sense.
We progress by constructive disagreement. We stagnate by conformism.
Ireland has a voice. It’s not as big as the US or Germany certainly, but it can be used to good effect - not simply as a tame inactive parrot of the big States. 🦜

As @catherinegalway.bsky.social says in the first short clip here, HH is now all about the politics of fear and smear, to avoid substantive debate on issues. #Áras25
