    I flicked over there and saw that daithi o se guy was on. Why does RTE put him on tv? He always comes across as a culchie gombeen who has just found himself in front of a tv camera.

    There's a fairly good chance there'll be a thread about it here, later. You won't miss a thing.

    Ok, it's past the time.

    RTE1 - Some talent crap
    RTE2 - Some other Shite.
    TV3 - Again some other crap.

    But it's not the crap we're looking for.

    No sign of anything, watching Sky News at the moment, seems like there is a small crowd milling outside the gates of Leinster House though.

    He's actually lost weight, as has mary harney... Harney must be the only person in the world who has lost a few pounds and looks even uglier

    It's gone past 7pm, no sign.

    Just switch on Sky News people, it's all about Ireland so they'll probably broadcast the ''statement''.
