I think the most dangerous things about the tape recordings is that it may come to light just how unhelpful the guards are when decent people ring them looking for help..

I worked in a crappy job in the '70's and the calls were taped...

Don't tell me in the middle of the troubles, calls to and from Garda stations weren't taped.......:rolleyes:

All this is great. Which other minister for justice has had the apple tree so well shaken on his watch? Good for Shatter.

Did he just cut Pat off?

I suspect a lot of those tapes will be 'accidentally' left next to strong sources of magnetism. If on hard drives, they might suffer from being 'accidentally' dropping into the station coal scuttle.

And don't forget to bring your own pen if going to a station to have a form witnessed, they don't have ANY pens in Garda Stations

On the news yesterday, they had a woman who was attacked. The man was released by gardaí and he murdered a woman. She was the taxi driver on six-one last night, but she's been on it before in relation to the whistleblowers.

There must be thousands of incidents revolving violent crime, where the gardaí don't turn or show incompetence or cowardice.

Of course, the judges call all the mayhem of violent crime, but how and ever ...

And all those calls they made to chippers and Chinese takeaways. It might explain why a lot of Guards seem to put on plenty of weight after they graduate from Templemore

Go Ann "he's not a commissioner anymore"

Ann 1 Duffy 0

Hitchens

"he's not a commissioner any longer" one in the gut for Duffy
