Fianna Fáil - the Pirate Party
In 1982 Fianna Fáil ran a pirate radio station, broadcasting illegally from their General Election HQ in Dublin. Check out the video below. They won the Election, then refused to legalise pirate radio. And when Taoiseach CJ Haughey was asked in the Dáil why his Ministers were regularly appearing on pirate radio, he replied simply: ‘I don’t know how it is possible to appear on radio’.
Thanks to FreeDigitalPhotos.net for some of the pics in the video.
