    Anyone else sick of this smug bollox. I appreciate this is the politics forum so obviously I will stick to that. The first thing he did during his 'great' show on Saturday night was have a dig at the Fine Gael ard fheis. Every week, despite being a pretty poor journalist, he has an article on the front of the Sunday Independent. Most weeks, this week included, he sucks up and idolises Bertie Ahern. This blinkered journalism is an example of everything that is wrong with this country.

    oh so he's a journo, i thought he was a "commedian"?? very hit and miss imo

    hated the way he took the piss out of jum corr few weeks ago and even admitted his kids got the swine vacine (muppet!!), then Twink came in after slaggin Jim also and said something tht makes no difference in anybodies lives and the place nearly errupted with applause, they are all what is wrong with this country and shouldnt have his own show and paper piece, we are all influenced by complete fools

    Yes i'm completely sick of him. Him and his paper have been stoking up anti public service feeling during most of this resession.

    Don't forget they targeted property in 07 and accelerated the downturn imo.
    They targeted bertie to the point he had to resign.
    Their target for the past year has been the public service.

    I don't think they had a anything to do with the downturn, but if the other 2 points are true, i say well done to them.

    Ranting & Raving, News & Media or AH.

    Any one of the three better than here for this as this is the Politics forum. Mentioning a party conference does not make it a political discussion.

    And calling someone a "smug bollox" in the first line tends to lose the attention of most people who can read. Not today, thank you. Put bluntly, given the contribution standard, I'd go for a higher standard of discussion and pull that plank out of the eye before commenting on the speck or plank elsewhere.
