Wheres biffo gone??

Copper_pipe

Ever since were getting our election next week it seems biffo has vanished off the face of the earth

whydoibother?

Well I suppose he's not running and the Dáil has been dissolved so what would he be doing?

emo72

when hes lying in bed, just before he goes to sleep, does he think to himself "well, i did the best i could, it wasnt my fault" or is it "Jesus Christ, what have i done?"

Copper_pipe

i wonder what damage he could do in a week

Mr Trade In

He is out campaigning with his brother Barry.

Riding off into the sunset with his redundancy. If Labour or FG want to capture any more of the middle ground FF used to occupy they should start Cowen bashing for sport over the next week, a lot of voters will still associate FF with Cowen, they'd be fools not to, it's the same party with a different face at the helm.

I wonder if there will be a big deal made of the "technical constitutional crisis" that arises from Cowen being Taoiseach, but not being a TD.

caseyann

He is laying low so people wont think about him and vote FF,FG.
The rub their hands with glee as people of Ireland yet again vote in the thieves and back slappers of the Dáil.
And when you vote in FG he will pop out of wood work and be happy with his wages and bonuses all over again

mikemac

He's about in Laois-Offaly, well Offaly.
Out campaigning

Just because he's not in the papers doesn't mean he's lying low in his house

Pauleta

Im sure him and Bertie have been told by FF HQ to keep a low profile.

Are you kidding me, he couldn't give a flying now that he'll be getting his €150k pension.

You can be certain he won't be doing the honourable thing.

Oh god...not this. There is no constitutional crisis. This happens everytime the Dail is dissolved. There are NO TDs right now. Therefore before every election the Taoiseach is not a TD. The constitution specifically states that ministers and the Taoiseach continue their duties until a new government is in place. It is the one exception to the taoiseach having to be a td.

I'm talking about when the Dáil is reconvened, not now. I know the ministers, Táiniste and Taoiseach continue, but that wouldn't stop other people who didn't know that from trying to make a big deal of it. The reason they might is that no Taoiseach has ever not run again. :rolleyes:

county man

The last time he got any media coverage was when he came to Cork Airport after the plane crash there last week.Apart from that he seems to have disappeared off the radar since he went to the Aras.

Because we still have some civilised values.

yeahme

maybe because (fox-news-rte), & sunday/irish fox-news independent, dont want to talk about him as our leader because it would damage FFAILure on the rise again. you should all know the reference to fox news and what I mean by HIDDEN but subtle as a sledgehammer agendas.

telekon

Bet he's been on an almighty bender for the past 2 weeks...

i really wasnt going to do it. but i am livid at him. like most people i have rage in my mind. but would not act on it.

what should the punishment be for turning private debt into sovereign debt and destroying a nation? what would be appropriate in a civilised society?

URGE TO KILL RISING

It'd be really funny to see the effect it would have if he came out and supported a party this week, e.g. started campaigning for labour, imagine what would happen to their vote . .:P

questionmark?

I'm guessing his on a piss up with bertie and cant believe they still have a car and garda driver for life!:mad:
