It’s derived from Irish, originally meaning thieves or bandits if I recall correctly.

    That still sounds accurate to the modus operandi of what I'm used to from a Conservative Party.

    Though it infuriates me that a party can literally call themselves and be regularly referred to as "The thieves who want to eat your baby!", by EVEN THEIR SUPPORTERS, and still not only be considered a viable party, but have more or less become the majority party of their country......

    It's got real "They call themselves Decepticons and you thought they'd honor a deal?" energy
