I think a good question would have been when did sf decide to ditch nationalism and become globalists ?

"The corporate world doesn't have a conscience, it has interests." Truer words were never spoken.

Well said Eamon, don't usually agree with you but your spot on here!

Best interview ever commenting on 26 county politics today!

Not a fan whatsoever but for a man being part of the establishment his honesty is refreshing.

Well said Eamon, great interview.

After hearing Tubridy's grandfather was part of RTE I had to switch off and puke.

What a most insightful and wise man

Not a man I would normally agree with but in this interview he raised some valid points.

He is spot on. If you listen closely

Eamon is spot-on.

I'm still convinced that a lot of people born/bred in the free state / ROI hate people from N.I and its absurd, Catholics in the north all suffered at the hands of the brits whether they were republican or not, if you want to hate unionists from the north be my guest but Catholics from N.I are as Irish as anyone from the ROI, id almost argue more Irish in a way as we all went through misery, as a child i was dumb and i would approach the British army on the streets and ask to hold their gun, i was maybe 5, they would let me so in my Naivety i would then argue they were okay, i realized years later the Ira were potentially in there area and the brits were fully aware of this and were essentially using all use children as human shields or as a deterrent from gunfire, the brits were extremely sinister and we had them in our towns and cities for years whilst people lived in peace in the free state, so why the hatred? we were the oppressed, i even had a guy in the ROI call me a Brit cause i was from n.i, its insane.

I like this guy - he makes a lot of sense

well said

You word is good enough for me 👍❤️

Blood may indeed "turn the wheel of history", so the Irish people need to educate themselves. Northerners seem to grasp the logical necessity of standing up to Power in order to accomplish change, while southern and western comrades have water meters installed.

Now there's an intelligent man.

Well said

Very astute observations..

This just swayed my vote.

5:32 That was the question I found myself arriving at just as Eamon raised it. I think he's a bit optimistic, there are FBI and other US security service's posted at Mi5 and GCHQ, Irish American's that serve in the highest posts in US politics are not in the least bit on the same page as us at all. In fact they're all in the Neocon camp as far as I can tell. The future lies in the East not the West as I see it.

Loved Eamon on RTE as a sports pundit, never in my life did I think I'd agree with him politically

People choose to forget the PIRA were formed to defend catholic areas from the pogroms of 1969 Irish people need to open their eyes

The first thing the new irish state did was take the british weapons and turn them on their competition.

he s not someone i would have much time for......but he s speaking the truth in this one ..you have to hand it to him

Well said Eamonn, 10 orphaned children

Eamann, I never liked you more than in this moment.

Blueshirts would not like to hear eamonn speak

'Sports Pundit'

I’m a Catholic Loyalist…and than you have your protestant republicans…some people forget this.

here here

25 years ago, I put a bet on Gerry Adams to be President of the Republic of Ireland within 40 years. 1,000 to 1. It's now about 25/1. I'll happily give the money to charity.

WOW the get 411 likes it goes to show you the truth is ignored by most to appease the falsehoods well said sir.

Well said Eamonn people have a very short memory.

so who's going to man up and deal with kincora or go one bigger and deal with haut de la garenne in Jersey etc? you've got the most incredible chance to deal with this nonsense and some people are too afraid to stand up and beat the snakes out of the grass

real talk here dunphy is a legend

Bit like your footbal comentary.... But well said

Ok baby!!

Yes,✔️

Eamon Dunphy tells it like it is, - well said, Eamon.....!!Adams for Leader...!! - the only true statesman in Irish politics.

OK Eamon what about the current situation with the Current Republic Government treating the Irish people badly on behalf of Brussels. The manner in which these illegal immigrants are treating ordinary Irish people. Action required yesterday.

As an Englishman with lots of Irish family he is totally right.

The pIRA, I would presume, have continued the struggle by other means that have yet to pay off. I’m English, but if I was in their position, I wouldn’t part with a single gun unless I had a longer game plan.

He is minus a cell

Why would the Irish people have a worry about where Sinn Féin would lead them when they Sinn Féin got rid of the gun and of course the good people in all sectors Northern Ireland.

I agree with everything he said except our corporate tax rate. That's not going to change. They might tighten up loopholes and sign up to international agreements but they wont change the rate. The EU can close up loopholes but they cant dictate the rate.

I was with him right up until he said he admired Eoghan Harris. Ugh.

So what if it was 42 years ago? She is has living direct relatives.

Dunphy himself seems to have come a long way in his thinking on matters SF; after all, it was he who promised to join the UVF in the event of Irish reunification.

.48...59..these people extremely debateble to if they ever fought or made any impact at the time of insurraction..

I all of a sudden gained a lot of respect for Eamon Dunphy after watching this.

Swear this guy was drunk all the time

🍀👍 I love 1916 agreement thank you 👍 I vote Sinn Fein 🍀

Adam’s and McGuinness were the IRA. John Hume was the man who took the guns out of Irish politics.

I didn't know Ryan Tubrity's grandad was head of the RTE? honestly is there anyone in Ireland who is in a position of privilege who isn't connected to someone?haha

Ah now that's a bit mean Eamon

Very good Eamon, Sinn Fein First Policy is a United Ireland remember that.

Adams never shot anyone during the conflict. He wasn't like McGuiness who was fearless. No wonder his once close friend Brendan Hughes ended up hating him and famously asking: "In the end what was it all for?"

Lots of things I don't agree with regards Dunphy but he is very engaging and forthright. so little of that around now

In total agreement!

People have different opinions on eamonm dunphy..but guarantee u this when he passes away it will be a National morning ..because he is one of the most influential people in Irish society....

What did you expect the people to do. They had to stand up against the brutality of England. And try and free our beautiful country. I'm not into republicanism but during in the war of independence the people stood up and fought because of what the so called black and tans were doing to everyday Irish people that knew nothing about what the IRA were up to but yet the Black and Tans were going around torturing law abiding Irish People. Who had done nothing wrong

Dunphy makes one true statement about Adams..he did end the IRA! Particularly at Loughgall well done Adams...lol

Heartbroken for her children and loss of a kind woman

Very Good Eamon

Why do you think caused All violence in the first place

Great piece of footage of Eamon Dunphy talking sense and about what Irish people should seriously be thinking about come the next general election and voting Sinn Féin, it's the only real solution to defending Ireland's corner in the E.U. and I think they would be able to get bankers debt and the public debt as separate issues and have a write down of the bankers debt that we shouldn't have to pay to save the €euro and once that's out of the way,we will have enough cash reserves to pay for the unification of Ireland. 26/11/2014. Irish time 21:51 . Wednesday.

Anyone remember Enda Kenny? One of the most craven politicians in Irish politics. Wear it with 'pride' Enda ( wherever you are).

Eamonn the opportunist. Almost drove John Hume to nervous breakdown

Dunphy is wasting his time doing this

Gerry Adams honest? BaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa!! HaHa! Ha!

The rise of the drug culture coincided with the rise of the Provos. The gun may be gone from Irish politics but it most certainly is not gone from Irish society.

Ireland needs a strong Labour party and a Labour movement..

Sneakiest interviewer ever.🤣🤣🤣

Haha I love the drunken shit!!!

Eamon makes very valid and salient points here. I think someone like Gerry Adams who has seen and been through it all could really bring something positive to the table if he ever became Taoiseach. I don't see him becoming as corrupted by corporatism and the bankers being a hardline nationalist and patriot. Ireland never hated Britain or its people, just the Empire and the ruling class who subjugated Ireland and one quarter of the rest of the planet. Point is if Sinn Fein were the ruling party I think they would want to secure healthy relationships with the rest of the world while wanting to secure Ireland's borders and maybe eventually pull Ireland out of the EU and maintain a solid relationship with Britain after Brexit and it's unique relationship with America. I think it could be the start of something good. Gerry Adams was no more a murderer than Winston Churchill or Abraham Lincoln depending on your point of view. While we should never forget, we should still not let that prevent us from moving forward and therefore taking the stigma out of nationalism. Hope I'm sort of making sense here!

The 26 counties was never going to be got peacefully ,so i don't know what he means by Murders and gun men, or gun women, youd imagine the war for irish freedom was gained without femails help.

See Sinn Fein now. The biggest party.

Sinn Fein has nationalist tendencies and is no where near left wing enough for Eamon.

Brendan Hughes says he saw the British Army radio receiver in the McConville's flat and that she had been warned once already by Republicans not to inform. I think the British Army saw her as a win/win in that if she gave them information that would be great and if she was killed by the IRA then it allows the IRA to be seen in the worst possible light as she was a widow with 10 children and a Protestant. Denials about her helping the British absolve them of playing any part in the situation. Responsibility for her death and the hiding of the body lie with the IRA but they wouldn't have done it for no reason even if that reason is abhorrent to most people.

The big Big question is they cannot be trusted that's the big question

A wise analyst… i enjoyed his summary …

❤️

💯

Gerry Adams “honest”? I don’t think so.

👍

Nail on head

I come from armed robbers🍀

You owe you Freedom to Michael Collins . So how about Bloody Sunday - No Justice for 14 Murders by the British Army and still no convictions for the Murder of the Miami show band.

An atrocity but it's ok because it was 42 years ago .... ? All violence is ok because some it ... better stick to soccer.

Of course Mr Dunphy understands the situation. The English are accountable because of their barbaric & shameful history

1916❤️🍀

I can only imagine how the UK would react to Gerry Adams becoming Taoiseach. Whether Ireland likes it or not, it is still intertwined with the British economy. Also what hope would there be for support for a united Ireland in unionist NI with Gerry Adams at the helm? I think Mr Dunphy has been hitting the whiskey too hard.

You are not so clean yourself but I do like Gerry Adam's and Michael Martin is a gentleman so get your facts right

Killing an informer isn't an atrocity

And we did change the Tax band and Jerry is no more. It's Mary and Michelle, 3 rounds place your votes people. ☘️

adams is skilled at politics and is hardened by real struggle but i would not as an individual who lives his life in honesty put him in that bracket. That being said i do believe we need people like him or not to stand up to the establishment and the elite, hes done some horrible things of which he denys but he cares for ireland and how it is governes atleast

Leo vardker is a outsider he shouldnt be let run this country

I became a member of Sinn Fein few months ago, because under the other parties Ireland’s homeless problem continues to worsen, this country is a goldmine we have some of the richest waters off our coast yet our fisheries our oil and gas are being sold off without the peoples knowing, instead of being a rich nation previous governments have sold us out to the corrupt bankers and our great grandchildren will still be paying of that debt, drives me fuckin insane

Who loves ye baby 😅
