I reckon Harry McGee is angling for a job as a Government press officer.

Ah Harry, have you never heard the term "Smoked Salmon Socialist"?????

They don't do lobster.

Salmon is much cheaper! :pac:

It's only tinned salmon for me, Grey. That's even cheaper.

The one night I watch it on TV3 Player and the feckin thing cuts out because some flute forgot to set it up for the extended programme.

Goodnight :mad:

Pity they didn't do anything about the stupid road tax on older cars...

I'm not sure if extending the program time achieved anything much.........same old guff and same old ads, only more of both!

I'll be around with the lads about 9-ish.....

That extra fiver on the child benefit will buy the Lidl wine!!...;)

Somebody on €108k per year wants an "equal society". Feck off Jack, before you embarrass yourself even further.

I have to say that was a bit of a damp squib......even......

It's like everyone ran out of steam!

That blonde one at the back is on every year complaining.

Tom Curran (partner of the late, Marie Fleming) had a good article in the Indo today.


'Carers save the State €77m every week – why are we not rewarded?'

Harry Angstrom

These two are becoming a regular double act.

Roger_007

I don't understand this idea that people with 'higher' earnings are 'benefiting' more from the budget. They are the people who are paying for everything and all that is happening is that they are being screwed a bit less than they were.

RobertKK

Enda wanted a pay rise so high earners got a tax cut.

Lady Chatterton

I feel like I'm back at mass..

The Response is ...

"The government chose to give a tax cut to high earners".

He has a point though. Typical Fine Gael, looking after their rich friends.

I'm don't have an issue with what he said but I thought it was funny the way he repeated it like a responsorial psalm .

Fine Gael members chant...

Enda is our shepherd
There is nothing I shall want
Near bought elections he leads me
To revive our drooping prospects.

Blaming Fianna Fail for the USC is rather pointless this far into this government term.

Harry Angstrom

"This is a tax brought in by Fianna Fáil"

He says it as if it's beyond Fine Gael's power to abolish it :rolleyes:

RobertKK

Blaming Fianna Fail again shows this politician from the government lacks answers.

Strange how Fianna Fáil now know how the country should be run..........pity they didn't know it when they were in government?

He looks like someone inflated Roddy Collins and stuck him in a mohair suit.

And will Vincent ever stop interrupting Donnelly so he can make a flaming point. That thing about overpaying to the drug companies was spot on but it flew over Vinnies head because he had some other bee in his bonnet that he needed to exercise.

Joan Collins hasn't a clue about running an economy.

We should have been spending money she says, when we had the Troika running the country because borrowing was too high to make it sustainable.
