Britain faces a simple and inescapable choice - stability and strong Government with me, or chaos with Ed Miliband:

Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly. _ Harry Limes
Talk and token gestures mean little, actions have always spoken more than words. He abstained from World War Two. He was a neutral. That was the smart move.
I am guessing Hitler's dream of the Aryan Race was the very last thing on De Valera's mind when he told the British to go it alone.

You still haven't explained what this has to do with Brexit.
For the record, I don't see anything wrong with remaining neutral in ww2, I do see something wrong with sending condolences on Hitler's death given what was then known about the regime. It is unforgivable. But has **** all relevance to Brexit!!
You are right that it doesn't have anything specificly to do with Brexit, but is merely an observation, that if De Valera had fought with allied powers in WW2, knowing nearly eighty years later, that the Republic Of Ireland would be isolated by the British, because of Britains desire to walk away from Europe, he'd have wished he'd remained neutral in WW2.

If he were alive I reckon he'd be in stitches at the mess we're in and looking for an opportunity to reclaim the 6 counties.

Was watching sky news the last few dasys,jesus they are worse than fox news think everyone on that works on that show is a tory or brexiteer,,disgusting stiff won'y be watching that channel again see Kate andrews was on it,then following day she's on the politics today programme these brexit channels do love their IEA favourite a woman who thinks free healthcare is a far left policy.. Great work by the unbiased media again..
I've always quite liked Sky News but only because it seems less biased than the Brexit Broadcasting Company and I like Beth Rigby; however I'm tending to not watch much news these days as Farage is always on and it's not good for my health. Just tend to stick with Channel 4 News these days. Can't believe that there's a Tory leadership contest going on when the countries in the biggest mess I've ever known it to be in [and that includes the Thatcher years....]...
I am mostly amused by the reports that the person most likely to replace Theresa May as PM wants to "prepare for a no deal Brexit" and at the same time wants to "use money currently set aside for a no-deal Brexit to raise the 40% tax rate threshold to £80,000"
Sounds to me as if he is as clueless as he appears.
Bet he snorts coke off hookers tits as well.
