    VB is a haven of peace and tranquility tonight after The Frontline earlier.

    Fair play to Joanna Tuffy for waiving her allowance. I've always felt a bit sorry for her. She seems like a decent skin. It's a pity she's surrounded by a bunch of opportunists and mercenaries in her own party.

    Vinny said last year that he was earning €52,000 which isn't much for what he does.

    Thought he'd be on a lot more than that in fairness. There's a lot worse getting a lot more.

    Who is this woman and what qualifies her to review current affairs regularly on VB?

    6.7 m sterling is "worthless" alright. Some people never change. AND he'll probably walk in again at the next election.

    ha! I think people should be acutely aware of the "risks" of appearing on Vinny B now. That was absolutely gas. Fair play to yer man for holding it together.

    Not very nice at all.
    Between that and the Israel Cancer remarks, VB needs to cop on a bit.

    I know Vinny is a qualified barrister but he needs to remember that he is in a TV studio and not a courtroom cross examining someone :D

    Do these guys not have handlers to tell them they need to shave again before going on tv at night?

    Oh and who decided John McGurk was an authority on American politics or anything else? He was on Newstalk about an hour ago...

    I was totally on VBs side. Jerry butter makes me despair - he hasn't an original word to say ( even less than most politicians!) and noticed the last time he was on the show how he doesn't listen to the question and cant think off the cuff. I know most politicians are like this, maybe its his inexperience and inability to pass off as well as more seasoned politicians, but Jesus, I find him annoying!

    Ah, I think Billy is doing his bit for Movember, he is normally very well groomed.

    He is very dark so I'd say he is the type of man that would have a five o'clock shadow by 10 in the morning :D

    I don't think it was rude at all, in fact it was Buttimer that was effectively being rude by not listening to the consultant next to him but instead reading the briefing given to him by his "handlers"

    They might as well not be on the program anyway since the politicians don't answer any questions anyway but just waffle on for ages with their prepared comments.

    "Is there anybody there?" said the Traveller,
    Knocking on the moonlit door;
    And his horse in the silence champed the grass
    Of the forest's ferny floor;
    And a bird flew up out of the turret,
    Above the Traveller's head:
    And he smote upon the door again a second time;
    "Is there anybody there?" he said.

    More U.S. Election rubbish tonight it seems as if it really matters to us.

    only vincent browne would give a platform to someone as sh1t nuts as ciaran allen , apart from his general looney outlook , whats even more bizzare is his arrogant demeanor , the guy actually thinks he,s an important voice and commentator when he,s nothing but an unelected extreme left academic paid for by the tax payers he despises, they guy doesnt represent 1% of opinion yet acts like he has some mandate or authority

    It says a lot about the cowardice of this Government when they allowed Leo Varadkar out last night to discuss the "safe" topic of the US Presidential election result with VB, but tonight when there's a topic which directly affects the Irish people, they wheel out a non-entity FG backbencher.

    Jim Daly's no nonentity. He's knowledgeable and articulate - just talks a bit fast.

    He's just another one of those interchangeable backbench FG TDs who have nothing original to say and just parrot the same old cliched party line. They might as well have had a mannequin sitting in that seat last night.

    He's worthwhile. Just listen carefully to him. Definitely not a parrot.
