Hmm, Vaclav Klaus tried to block legislation on legalising homosexuatily and is an economic disciple of Friedman - lets not line up the left alongside him - Its not like meddling Ukip did us any good either on Lisbon and is it a great idea for even a former green who had the guts to leave the party on principle and plough her own furrow to line up alongside a global warming denier? Sure I don't like Lisbon either and I hope he rejects it and refuses to sign it but lets not get all pragmatic about the enemy of the enemy is our friend stuff....that way we forget why we dont like Lisbon which for me anyway was its militarised and neo liberal policies and this guy is a fan of both...

Dr Sean O'Domhnaill is a member of Youth Defence and of their myriad front organisations. He doesn't just oppose abortion, he also opposes LGBT rights, contraception, sex-education, divorce and civil partnership.

Patricia McKenna should not share a platform with this reactionary. No progressive person should have anything to do with this protest.
