    Who is this dude who forgot to button up his shirt.

    He ran for PBP in the last local election, in my area.

    Did not know until now that he was writing historical chronicles.

    This discussion, like the earlier documentary, has no focus.

    Jumping around the decades far too quickly. Sarah Mc is talking about the last 12 months, everyone else wants to debate DeValera and Lemass.

    He's a History graduate from UCD, got his PhD recently and has written an excellent book on Sean Lemass.

    He's a centre left Mansergh. I'm really enjoying this. Excellent panel. I've read both books, Sins of the Father by Conor McCabe and Sean Lemass, Democratic Dictator by Bryce Evans. Really good books on different subjects.

    Tuned out after about 15 mins last night. Was very disappointed as I was really looking forward to it but the chosen panel did not exactly enthral me.

    Pity, I had pictured a panel of FF members past and present with Vinnie ridiculing and shouting at them for an hour. Oh well...:(

    Love the way Vinny tells the others to butt out.
    He wants to rip this poor woman apart himself.

    Interested to read recently that Gilmour is described as unassertive and indecisive at Cabinet according to some of his labour colleagues.

    His decision to take the Foreign Affairs brief was a cowardly move as well.

    Why didn't he take an economic brief? Foreign Affairs Ministers rarely take divisive decisions. He took the easy option.

    Vinny's only having the craic.

    The kind of revolution he wants to see is the one on student campuses, that look good but dont get messy (like the miners strike) and dont change anything, whilst watching from a lofty window and recording in all for a new opus. . bit like meself, come to think of it...
