    Just watching the Frontline there and i'm becoming more and more convinced there is such a thing as a FF head.
    It's strange- you can tell whether a random pundit is going to defend/criticise FF policies even before they speak.

    All populist FF bashing aside :p - this is a curious phenomenon.

    FF don't do shame or guilt.

    They don't even see when they've monumentally screwed up.

    In fairness, Ardal O'Hanlon's father is a Fianna Fail TD, so it can't have been too difficult for him to learn how to do that 'look'.

    At the moment, it's easy to spot the FF-heads, because (in addition to the circular red faces, ill-fitting suits and the patently obvious fact that their wife/mammy cuts their hair) they just look like they're about to say something that they know everyone else will disagree with. Kind of like a nervous arrogance, if such a thing is possible.
