We need our politicians to look their best to get jobs for Ireland. Their budget for paddys day trips won't break the country.
A pig in lipstick is still a pig. Its not as if US investors are going to look at Harney in her $6k haircut and think that in any way she looks presentable or better than she looked before the hairdo.

This trip was a massive waste of time and money last year, if they think this year is going to be any better they are seriously deluded.

Yeah I'm up for a protest. I think we should meet up in town on Paddy's Day. Anyone who is protesting against the Government should wear green.
