FOOTNOTE, this evening the council sent men over in canoes and removed the tricolors. Safe in the arms of Jesus
Just read Willies comment after posting my own. Good to hear they have been removed. In one sense it might be nice to fly a Union Flag from the island in remembrance of his brave act should the family wish it.
If we had 100 men with such resolve, we could move mountains in this land of ours. Very sad story, a great patriot and a loss to the local unionist community I'm sure. Thoughts with the family...
That's a good age to go swimming across the pond. Still very shocking to hear this news.* Council wasn't long getting people in to remove the flags, was done in a matter of hours after the death. Why not before?
They waited to see if some loony would do it for them because the canoe was buried behind all the Xmas decorations.
I'd be laughing just as hard if it was some dumb Republican **** who drowned taking down a Union flag. A ***** is a ***** is a *****.
