Seachain an duine a bhíonn ina thost

In all my born days, I have never ever been accused of being right-wing.

This is precisely the problem with being left-wing, though: all the other lefties say really stupid things so nobody takes any of us other lefties seriously.

These particular lefties have with one breath accused us of being right-wing for suggesting we disaffiliate from NUS (an organisation which was widely acknowledged as being flawed, but which has now thankfully taken big steps towards reform) and with the next claimed that NUS is trying to become a more bureaucratic organisation so we should elect them as delegates to Annual Conference so they can stop the madness [isn't that exactly the opposite of what is happening?].

It's just so embarrassing sharing a side of the political spectrum with people who want to campaign against whatever the status quo is without any regard for facts or analytical thought. I wish the left wing as a whole was a membership organisation so I could resign in disgust.
