Ógra Shinn Féin ( www.ograshinnfein.blogspot.com ) have been blogging for over one year now, we first started blogging first in September 2006 and from then we have had hundreds of posts, and receive over 500 unique views daily.
The post’s have ranged from news reports of actions, to opinion pieces on a wide range of issues, and recently has had the privileged addition of resident satirist ‘Gerry Junior.’
George Bernard Shaw once wrote,
"All censorships exist to prevent anyone from challenging current conceptions and existing institutions. All progress is initiated by challenging current conceptions, and executed by supplanting existing institutions. Consequently the first condition of progress is the removal of censorship."
We have surely challenged censorship and now possess an open forum from which to engage into wider debate around all issues that will help us assess and debate the future of the Republican Struggle.
Thanks to everyone in the past year who has made the blog a success and we would encourgage all of you and more to continue viewing, promoting and writing for the blog.

We seriously need to get back to getting real discussion going on this blog. News stories and opinion pieces are being posted on blog, but no real comments. Get the debate going!
Where are the new fresh ideas regarding struggle? Young republicans were once seriously opinionated. For example Tom Hartly in the 1970s was a guru.
Don't let me start my rant about the danger of Ógra Shinn Féin becoming one big social networking forum (dating agency).
However, happy 1st birthday and best wishes to all comrades responsible for blog site - You sometimes truly brighten up my day.
