    Constantin had based his figures up until 2020 though??
    The figures bandied about tonight are just present figures.
    Correct me if i'm wrong.!!

    Correct - people tend to forget that mortgages taken out in 2004 / 2006 were mainly 30 / 35 year mortgages .

    Constantin is correct to base his figures on a broader horizon.

    Yates sounds like a bad actor.. The faux enthusiasm is over bearing...

    I wish somebody would ever ask Mike Soden about the escort websites..

    He seems to have abandoned Vinny's policy of trying to get a gender balance, and balance of people from different parts of society... I enjoy his radio show with himself and Chris, listen to it on the way back from work sometimes (I work nights)... Good banter between the two...

    Yeah, he's the best of a bad lot.

    can't say i approve of his gambling empire (now gone) background, but he is intelligent, he asks short precise pertinent Q's (which Vinny only does if there is no yes or no answer, so he can look like he's being 'tough')

    a relief. hate Gangle too much to watch him, but the rest were dire.

    I'd say Mike Soden getting caught looking up those escort agencies on the Internet must count as the most unusual case of serendipity in the history of ..... well... serendipity..

    If that Anne Doyle story is true, that's the end of an era for RTE television.

    RTE is going to be accused of agism.

    The lad that looks down when talking seems like he is lying.
    He should know better even if he is hiding a slow eye.

    Yeah, he maintains that the bank balance sheet doubled in the years after he left, but it's difficult to believe that he alone would have said "ah here lads this is crazy, I'm not stuffing my pockets full of money if it means risking the Irish economy"..

    Just got the impression Yates saw negative equity and unsustainable mortgages as much the same problem.

    I think you'll find that should be 'back seat modding', ahem. :)

    Ganley is far too fond of making longwinded speeches pushing his own agenda instead of moderating the panel discussion. By the time he gets to the end of his vervose monologues I've forgotten what the question was.

    I missed it tonight but I can still agree with you.

    Another bunch of sacred cows within our stupid system.. I think that having such immoral people work in our "justice" system (judges, barristers, solicitors, the lot of them) is indicative of the sort of "justice" you can expect..

    Yates is good tonight, asking the right questions and putting his case across forthrightly

    I can't believe the holidays the Judges get.

    The elites sure look after themselves (and each other) in this country.

    Big kick in the h0le for Tubridy if Sinead O'Connor has really pulled out.. He's been putting down the ground work with a bit of pre show fawning already this week.. On the basis of her outrageously childish articles in The Sunday Times recently, maybe she has been advised against appearing on the show.. ?
