@@TheUnemployedHistorian I did and it was great. Don‘t know all that much about Ireland and it‘s great how you inform both about current and past political issues in a way that makes the comparison clear for one such as me as well. I‘ll check out more of your channel too, but I am finishing up my own bachelor‘s in history and part of it is combing through 600+ pages of town books from medieval Zagreb, ergo dusting off my Latin a bit (please don’t judge, I mostly worked with mostly high middle german and modern french sources - one time I read Dutch contracts too - before) so my time will be relatively limited haha
Cannot believe I am only now discovering your channel. I just watched your media censorship video, which was class. You should make a video on Parnell. There is very little good CS Parnell content on YT. Fair plé dhuit a chara 👍
Hi iv just stumbled across your video and its great. I do have a question that nobody seems to know the answer too. Do you know where the actually physical paper copy of the Anglo Irish treaty (1921) is kept?
Lad that was a connection 100 years ago to the Old IRA, which didn't attack civillians. The provos butchered women and children with nail bombs, nó comparason.
@@seantoner7392 And Fianna Fail was born out of the Anti Treaty IRA 80 years ago. And Fine Gael wore blues shirts 70 years ago and the Provos laid down their arms 30 years ago. So if your point is that this is all in the past. I agree. So why is Fianna Fail and Fine Gael opening old wounds? They should be debating current issues.
@@Desert-FatherBecause Sinn féin still actively defends those atrocities and even jokes about it. How is it that they're opening old wounds when Sinn féin puts out tweets every two days celebrating some Ira gunamn or bomber. Only 3 months ago sinn féin were commerating the hunger strikers, including one of them who murdered a single mother of three with an incendiary bomb. Last year Mary Lou said that the provo campaign was compelty justified, and look at the gerry adams video controversy. I don't support fine gael or Fianna Fáil btw, but I don't want a governemn that's gonna create national holidays for terrorist scum or openly pay homage to child murders. And BTW the PIRa were attacking civillians right up until 20 years ago, and only laid down their arms in 2005.
@@seantoner7392 I'm not a sinn fein voter but my original comment was pointing out the hypocrisy of Fianna Fail and Fine Gael criticizing Sinn Fein for past IRA connections. They all had past IRA connections. In past eras, their opponents have called the parties terrorists, criticized the parties for their perceived connections to intentional or unintentional attacks on civilians, and jailed alleged members without charge or trial, and even summarily executed alleged members. At one point or another in the past each one of these parties was a political arm of some faction of the IRA. Now all of them have renounced political violence. So I see this line of criticism as people living in glass houses throwing stones.
Here by request of Leon Thomas. Excited to watch.
gang gang
I always welcome people sent by Leon Thomas
I should also say, if you've come here through Leon:. He's is actually in my video on The Elephant Man which is still on this channel.

Please tell us you finally got a History teaching gig, and that's where you've been for the last two and a half years.
For real though, really happy to see you've found a little bit of inspiration. After Word Funk ended it felt like your pocket of the internet died.
Obviously, I was biding my time and waiting for the perfect moment to emerge from the shadows

Thanks! I've honestly never thought about it. I just sort of assumed it's in the National Archives or something.
Please send this video to Cllr Deirdre Conroy.
done!
You've ignored the Irish Labour party
@@willhovell9019 in what sense?
