Martin King is the worst weather man in the world.

Someone should tell him the rain "on the way" has been in the Country for 24 hours.

It's howling here and lashing rain.

Look a little further than out the window Martin.



And I've no rum.

Little Richard Bruton for Education, Sean Sherlock as Jobs Minister

Remember, you read it here first

No meteorological courses have been injured in the production of this "weatherman".

That's why Joanie is Labour Party leader and you're not, Harry

Austerity is over for Ivan, at least. A year in Wales and it's all grand again.

Katleen Lynch and Pathcal Donohoe. Christ, if they're promoted, that means their irritating voices will pop up on the news far more often. Unbearable.

He made me sick talking about being depressed/invoking suicide during his time in Wales. Insult to people who are depressed.
He'll always be OK.

Is Bruton still getting health anyone know.

I wouldn't want to be 'Bottlers' stand-in. Could go to Liam Twomey, maybe?

As long as it's not Kathleen Lynch, I don't mind. She should be kept far away from any department with a 'th' in the title.

No he seems to have a charmed political career so far and it seems set to continue with him avoiding it (last I heard).
It would make sense for him to move to health though and he's not one of Enda's boys so I'm not sure how he managed it.

Harry Angstrom

Nobody should take any notice of IBEC. All they want is to pay workers the minimum amount possible so their fatcat members make more money.

Busted Flat.

Disgusting failed bookie. It is the likes of him who brought the country to it's knees, now he is so called clean and back in the circle. It must impress the youth being forced to struggle to get an education, while those born with the golden spoon can spoof on, at their expense.

I think Leo could have his choice of ministries. He puts the wind up Enda, and won't go anywhere he doesn't want to go. Maybe stay where he is?

In fairness I don't like to kick someone after they failed but there's something about Yates (as you say). He has the down-to-earth man of the people shtick down pat but he's as embedded in the establishment as they come.
I suppose it's admirable he's trying to get on with things but as I say he will always be OK with his old friends in FG. He is a great example of the neo-gombeen IMO.

With Enda's henchmen, Big Phil going to Europe and James Reilly being relegated to Arts, it's possible that Enda mightn't want to raise Leo's profile too much. He's probably the only Fine Gael minister with any credibility left. Enda won't like him for that.

Why are the banks not moving on the assets that supported his borrowings, like mammys house. Or do they do that only on the little people who are so far out of the golden circle.

To be fair, Yates gave a lot of employment in the good times and did all he could to keep his shops open but AIB pulled the plug

I knew his bookie's business was dead in the water the day that one of his employees tried to convince me that the Grand National wasn't a handicap

Ahh, Mammys house secured his borrowings, why did they not call it in.

I dont what security he used, but maybe they're waiting for the Ma to kick the bucket?
