    Don't support those imbeciles. Make a sticker yourself if you want one.

    Could they not have thought of a more clever slogan? Or am I missing a hidden layer of meaning...?

    "Far too much bertie"

    Sorta reeks of "careful now", "down with that sort of thing", doesn't it? lol

    it's just in relation to his pay increase, it's too big.

    The name Bartolomew is definitely in his name somewhere, hence the name Bertie

    Exactly what do they think 200,000 stickers are going to achieve? Does anyone really believe that telling Bertie you don't like him will bother him in the slightest?

    Yeah was liking it until I saw Indymedia mentioned, also crap slogan.

    Though I have to say a visible protest isn't a bad idea.

    Well it's showing a little, just a little, form of political interest in quite possibly one of the most politically apathetic countries in Western Europe.

    If you add to this the campaign to send Ahern 38,000 teabags, then at least people are starting to vent political anger rather than pounding their fists at the bar........

    What exactly do they hope to achieve with these stickers? Bertie doesn't give a ****e what anyone of us meer sheepy eyed mortals think, his work here is done and his pockets are lined. This is a stupid idea and is too little too late. Closing the stable door after the horse has bolted, so to speak.

    probably in relation to his 38,000 pay rise
    I love the way the complaints about bertie are not he is doing a bad job just that he is giving himself more money
    so he is doing an alright job then yeah?

    It's related to when Bertie was defending his pay-rise stating that he had to pay for a cup of tea whereas other leaders didn't -

    These guys (http://www.digoutday.com/support.php) believe we should ALL send a teabag to Bertie to give him a 'dig-out'.

    I know...a 14% pay rise and the public gets furious. Before that;

    'Ah sure Bertie is one of us....A man of the people.'

    I remember hearing on the Luas one day some guy going....

    'I hate FF...can't stand them. But sure I like Bertie. He's Gas' :rolleyes:

    Lol at the teabag stunt - very good :)

    Im glad hes still there on one count, at least hes going to get shown in his real light and not given a heros send off when the time comes. Theres no real hurry to get him out now bacause the damage is done and irreversable at this stage. I say leave him there untill peoples blood gets rightly up (this will probably never happen tho), then release the hounds.

    I bet Bertie lies awake at night dreading the day people will make a sticker denouncing him, especially an Indymedia produced one.
