Notorious ‘change work' figure Katherine Zappone has been handed a money spinning made up position by the Irish government, prompting outrage and bewilderment across the political spectrum in the country.
Bilderberg extremist Simon Coveney has denied that the position of Freedom of Speech Czar was created especially for Ms. Zappone, but nonetheless stated that he refused to consider anyone else for the ludicrous position, since she ‘happened to live in New York’, near the UN. Despite Ireland’s homeless crisis and looming economic difficulties, Zappone will net a cool €20,000 basic salary for the made up role, which Green Party leader Eamon Ryan has stated will involve only 60 hours ‘work’ PER YEAR. Zappone is expected to receive expenses for the fake and pointless job also.
Zappone is an American who received an Irish passport in 1995. She was handed a lucrative Senator position by pro austerity left winger Eamon Gilmore and anti Vatican Taoiseach Enda Kenny. In 2016, she was elected to the Dail. The American lesbian stated that Ireland’s prolife 8th amendment ‘oppresses us with the burden of choicelessness. As long as the Constitution treats a foetus as equal to a woman, her autonomy can be nothing more than a myth’.
Zappone was handed the position of ‘Minister for Children’ by the Fine Gael/Fianna Fail government, as the ‘Repeal the 8th’ movement became wed to the cruel austerity positions of the regressive government. Rather than protect children from conception, as one would expect of a ‘Minister for Children’, Zappone worked eagerly to remove the rights of unborn children to be alive during pregnancy, which had been protected under the 8th Amendment. She was the essential driving force behind the movement to remove their rights, leading to the 2018 scenes of bloodthirst at Dublin Castle which shocked even hardened anti baby cultures such as Zappone's native United States and the United Kingdom.
After being roundly rejected by Irish voters in 2020, Zappone promised to continue her ‘change work'. She campaigned for Joe Biden during his election campaign that same year, stating after he had won, ‘We needed to bring democracy back to America.
“And we were voting as well for the character of the man, the values that he holds as well as the plans he’s put together.”
Her appointment as Freedom of Speech Czar has been roundly mocked by all sectors of Irish society, though her Repeal colleagues have been unconvincing in their protests. In a car crash interview with state media today, Bilderberg member Simon Coveney (who was once prolife but now is not) stated, ‘Some people have responded to this as if this was some kind of makey-up job to do a favour for Katherine Zappone. It was nothing of the sort’. While the ‘doing a favour’ part is unprovable, the ‘makey up job’ part is clear. The official title ‘UN Official Envoy for Freedom of Speech’, is laughable and an insult to the intelligence of the ordinary Irish people, who pay for this.
Coveney has stated that no one is questioning her suitability for the role, however we must do so. In 2019, Zappone was among an Irish delegation who travelled to an international anti baby conference in Nairobi, Kenya last year, in an event that was termed ‘neo colonialisation’, as it sought to encourage Africans to embrace aborting their babies instead of delivering them alive. Western nations accused of ‘neo-colonialism’ as they try to impose abortion on Africa during pandemic (righttolife.org.uk)
Taoiseach Micheal Martin has laughed off criticism of the role stating, ‘It’s not a big deal, we move on now’.
When we get regular comments on our social media asking us ‘What happened to Ireland?’, it might be worth considering if any other country would allow a leading member of the Democrats (or even Republicans) to be made a Senator (without the election of the people) and then to take a prominent role as Minister for Children (while seeking the legalisation of abortion) and then to be handed a cash laden ‘Freedom of Speech’ role because of (according to Bilderberger Coveney) her work in LGBT campaigning.
This story looks set to run for another week, but Zappone is royalty to the Irish LGBT and abortion movements, she will keep it, even against the will of the people who rejected her at the ballot box last year.
The issue has turned personal in many ways and perhaps some might consider our words as an attack on Zappone or Coveney themselves, but they are just a symptom of how attaching LGBT or abortion to a job or to a role can lend it legitimacy, even urgency, when it is of absolutely no benefit whatsoever to the Irish people.
Those claiming outrage but who voted for the ‘change work’ of the past decade have made their beds, they can now lie in them.
