Agree with you completly, it's a real throwback to the "grace & favour" days.
People should be paid properly for the job they do ... I mean, you wouldn't go to tip the doctor would you?

Yes,but, there’s always a ‘but’ isn’t there.

We are talking apples and oranges here aren’t we?

This “people should be paid properly” stuff always puzzles me.

That’s what the minimum wage is for isn’t it, I mean we pay ‘over and above’ we have to charge over and above, and folk cannot afford to pay. The business closes and everyone in back on the scratcher again.

Bit of a broad brush I know, but not a million miles from what happens.

Let's be honest here, the Shinners know infinitely more about taking down buildings than they do about putting them up.

In fairness to Paddy, he's no bleeding heart.

Did a report from dubland city methadone clinic. Total waste of taxpayers money.

Not sure I'd agree with you there Odyssey. I'd prefer if we could use that money more productively too, but what's the alternative? The methadone programme is a preventative cost, as opposed to the extra millions we'd need for healthcare and policing if methadone weren't available.

Must listen back to that slot, O'Gormans reports are always interesting

Agreed,its a preventative cost,but these wasters were on coke(the columbian kind) crack and some other shyte. If PoG can see that,in plain sight,then those in power should also be able. Pure waste of money.
Edit;I have no issues helping people out when they're down,(there for the grace of God etc..) but this is just taking the piss

A touch of shooting the messenger there.

Perhaps you are correct. It just boils my piss when I see money being wasted on these lot. I unreservedly apologise to PoG.

Listen teacher what the hell size of mortgage are you looking for?

You go to Dubai to make a pile of cash, get given a career break for it, get your full time job back when you return and then the minister has to go out to Dubai to listen to you complain.

Good call TopG. Time these leeches were called out and given a dose of reality.

Piss off and stay in Dubai, if it’s that great and see how you get on.

Middle Ireland is beginning to cop on to this kind of bulldust.

More of the hard pressed taxpayers need to call these folk out.

Dubai will be a great place for a front seat if/when things kick-off properly in the Gulf - Trumps inner circle are spoiling for a war.

Good idea to take the Iranians down a peg or two . Targeted assassination of the worst Iranian Leaders would be the way to go . Surely could be done effectively these days .

And replace them with whom?

Most political leaders are experts in self-preservation. That implies a certain amount of control. Take the lid off the pot, and you might be alarmed at the chaos that follows. Just look at the Former Yugoslavia, or Iraq, or Syria and further down to a list that's as long as your arm.

Is this the same piss that these wasters are taking as claimed in your previous post?

If you are America , you should kill enemies that threaten you just to let others know that death awaits .

The focus will be on rehabilitation and reintigration!!!!! what about putting a focus on the protection of other young vulnerable girls?

This wasn't a random act that went wrong it was a meticulously planned & executed murder by clearly extremly dangerous individuals.

Yes. He's calling it as it is. There should be more of this and none of Pavee point's whinging about discrimination and lack of funding.

As he said, nobody suggested mediating between the Hutches and the
Kinahans so why do it in this case?

Because even travellers engaged in serious criminality deserve special treatment

That American had no business appearing opposite the local politician, he was there to ferment an idea that the standard of behaviour here was different because it's travellers and so a mediator was required

Typical RTE
