Tonight -- Holding N.A.M.A. to Account.

Can't see much life in this. They apparently made a profit for the first time.

Failed developers being paid 200k per year by NAMA to manage their own properties ??? Only in Ireland.

While Joan Burton continues her sanctimonious crusade against the unemployed. Geldof got it right when he called this place a banana republic.

Scandalous.

What's an even greater scandal -

214 employees earn and average of €103,000.00 according to Frank Daly

That's over 22 million euro in salaries per annum.

He also said that only 2 earn over €250,000.00

Go on, gis a job, I can do that.

Why would those guests come in for 14 minutes of a programme? I know I wouldn't

It REALLY annoys me when they used the word profit in the context of NAMA... You know that you're being spun something when they start with that crap....

And you'd really need a rottweiler heading up that organisation, a person that's not afraid of stepping on a few toes or cracking a few skulls... And who do they get? A retired public servant... ffs

Sad to hear about the passing of Meave Binchy on the news just there.

She wasn't an author of the kind of books I read, but I've always admired her positive outlook on things.
I never saw her in bad form when being interviewed.
