  "Lover, Not a Fighter from Dublin writes:Dear Gerry,About a month ago, I cheated on my boyfriend of eight years. It was exciting, electric and utterly shameful, and I can’t stop remembering the sex and the way he treated me like a princess. It would break my boyf’s heart if I was to tell him. Should I tell my boyfriend or bury the secret?”Gerry responds:Dear Lover, not a fighter,In a real republic, there is no need for cheating, because each citizen is a free agent. They are particularly free from terrible things like sexual shame. Voting Sinn Féin will allow Ireland to build a bridge to the free future. If you need help with burials, I am something of an expert. Get back to me.”
