| Paratext Text | - 19 Meitheamh 2000 *Nuair a d'úsáideadh Seán Ó Sé - Dia go deo leis an duine lách! - an focal stánáilte bhíodh sé tar éis tréimhse mhór a thabhairt i mbun Achta nó saothair eile aistriúcháin agus is dá réir sin a deir an Duinníneach 'rigid' nó 'stuffed' leis. Faraor nach fada ón sprioc é anseo! |
| Notes | This poem refers to the 2000 Dover incident, 18 June 2000, when 58 dead bodies (of Chinese migrants) were found at the back of a Dutch transit lorry at Dover. The migrants were trying to reach English soil and had travelled far, with the speaker comparing them to sardines, crammed into the lorry. The poem also highlights how the incident is a secondary media story, compared to stories about the European football, and drunken English fans's rowdiness in European cities. |
