Hollywood actress Saoirse Ronan, star of films like What’s That? and I’ve Never Seen It, recently interrupted a conversation between her fellow couch-perching celebrity thesps Paul Mescal and Eddie Redmayne on The Graham Norton Show to ostentatiously point out she was in far more danger of one day being raped by a stranger in the street than either of them was.
Chatting with Norton, Redmayne revealed how, in preparation for a role in an upcoming thriller series, he had been trained by entertainment-industry ninjas in how to fend off an attacker using only his smartphone. Mescal queried how someone would have the time to take their mobile out before being assaulted, to which Ronan suddenly interjected “That’s what girls have to think about all the time. Am I right, ladies?”, prompting frenzied applause from the studio audience, none of whom had the moral pluck to wait until the clapping had died down and then just loudly say “No”.
Ronan the Contrarian
Perhaps we should not take the random utterances of chat-show guests under pressure of live audiences and TV cameras too seriously. David Icke once went on Wogan and said he was the Son of God; at least Saoirse (pronounced "Sur-sha") didn’t go that far. Her comment was of no real consequence, and in any sane world would have been quickly forgotten. Unfortunately, this is no longer a sane world, and Ronan’s comments were sycophantically hailed as the heroic admission of a hitherto unspeakable and

Never heard of this Ronan nonentity and I’m quite pleased about that. What a waste of space!
Ah, the acting profession where they are at their best when somebody else tells them what to do and what to say. They should stick to that.
This was 5 years ago but is about pathological altruism

These are very much related.
Prophesied in the book of Revelation:
And he cried with a mighty voice, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become an abode of demons, and a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hated bird. For all the nations have drunk from the wine of her raging fornication, and the kings of the earth have fornicated with her.”
Babylon the Great stands for western civilisation, standing on the foundations of the first civilisation that rose up in Uruk Mesopotamia and now sexualised to the point of being depicted as a prostitute. The nations, symbolised as birds (Daniel 4:14), have introduced unclean religions into the city. Thus the largest mosque in the western world by land area is the Mosque of Rome, with Strasbourg’s not far behind. Demons have returned to the house that was swept clean of them and brought with them spirits more evil than themselves. The sense is not that they are captives, rather they hold the city captive.

It isn’t just rape and murder of white women though is it. Today’s papers report the murder of a 24 yr old woman found in the boot of a car in Ilford, East London. Her name was Harshita Brella (Harshita is an Indian name) and the police believe she was murdered by someone known to her. (In other words, they suspect it could be an “honour” killing.

We have imported millions of men from a cultural and religious background who believe women and girls are their property to be disposed of – literally – however they wish. If they have no care or respect for the individuality and rights of their own women/girls, why should they have any for white girls who they consider to be slags and “easy meat?”
The 3 photos of men in blackface are definitely Welsh miners. This is why the Welsh Labour party needs to destroy white culture.

Anybody who appoints themselves as a spokesperson for victims of rape and sexual assault, whilst simultaneously being of the “Refugees welcome”/”Women can have penises and enter female spaces and sports” is an idiotic, deluded, hypocritical traitor.
You cannot be both concerned about women’s personal safety and be a woketard, it’s not possible. These people are frauds and traitors to their own sex.
There would be altogether less sex crimes if there were less people in society who belonged to these two misogynist cults. Less stabbings and mutilation of kids/young people also.
This from Germany illustrates my point about who the actual perpetrators of the majority of sexual assaults and stabbings are, and ignoring this by potentially introducing female-only carriages on trains is hardly getting to the root cause of the problem. Especially considering you can now change your gender in Germany from the age of 14yrs, this idea seems even more pointless;
”Antje Kapek, the transport policy speaker for the Green Party in Berlin, has called for the introduction of train carriages for exclusive use by female passengers. This follows a shocking upsurge in serious sex crimes on trains and buses, with Berlin alone experiencing the equivalent of more than one such assault every day. Frankfurt is heading in a similar direction.
Transport hubs across Germany are becoming less safe. Federal Police recorded 13,543 violent crimes at train stations in the first half of 2024.
Critics point out that such changes to ticketing and rolling stock would leave the basic problem intact, that of sexual aggression from men. For the German Greens, this points to a separate issue they would rather not discuss: the actual men being arrested for these offences.

Courts have to start handing out exemplary punishment for this offence.
In cases with rock solid DNA evidence for murder, I, personally, would have at least one perpetrator every year shot.
This would provide both useful live firing practice for our young soldiers, who would queue round the block to participate, and a stark deterrent to potential offenders.
‘Saoirse (pronounced “Sur-sha”)’
Saoirse is pronounced “Seer-sha”.
In case anyone meets her, Saoirse Ronan apparently pronounces her name SUR-sha. She says herself Seer-sha is also another, very common pronunciation.
It’s a bit of a minefield. I think this may be where the problems started:
‘The earliest written records of Gaelic are in Ogham, a script used in early medieval Ireland. Ogham is sometimes called the “Celtic tree alphabet” because each letter is associated with an Irish tree name’
I know a few women called Saoirse, I’ve never heard anyone pronounce it ‘Sur-sha’, not even people on TV or radio referring to Saoirse Ronan. It’s a bit odd, it’s like someone called Vera wanting it to be pronounced ‘Vura’.
There’s an MP from Northern Ireland called Sorcha Eastwood, but it’s spelt Sorcha, not Saoirse.
Are you sure it’s not pronounced “id-i-ot?”
