Claire Byrne Live (RTE1)

McDermotX

I hope there is a Late Late special, and it all kicks it off in the studio. Slash hooks and everything.

Surely there'll be one for everyone in the Audience, "Slashook" that is 😁

Well that was a waste of a show. 30 mins would have done that.

Did they even talk about the houses the travellers refused. I do not think they did. I have seen fir myself the state that travellers leave a place in. Yes they might not all be bad but there us a lot of bad ones out there. They would burn caravans as well and leave it there for the council to clean up. A disgrace.

These shows are just a form of WOKE mastrubation for progressives in media to signal to the rest of their tribe how right on they are about a key sacred cow of the PC left , waging the finger at middle Ireland is all its about

The hypocrisy of champagne socialists knows no bounds

Last night was a circle Jerk of virtue signalling by clueless liberals

You can be sure someone will "forget" to order alcohol for the greenroom backstage.

Remember the time all but one of the presidential candidates said they have no issue with a halting site next door to their house?

5 lying gits who just wanted to appear so accepting. Only one of the candidates had the balls to speak his mind.

Tbh, at this stage, Id be in favour of a mass boycott of the TV licence fee. The absolute cheek of them last night to have a show like that on prime time tv where there was little to no balance or objectivity to the arguments presented. Anyone who has lived outside a few posh south Dublin suburbs for a few years knows all about travellers in this country. They have been given chance after chance in this country & instead of sorting themselves out as a people, it looks like things are getting worse.

Im not really surprised with travellers to be honest, Ive come to expect this from them but RTE really are gone beyond a joke at this stage. Their sheer contempt for the middle & working class people of Ireland knows no bounds. Not only are they a completely dysfunctional organisation & spending way beyond their means, they feel fit to regularly lecture the people about moral & ethical issues who pay their overinflated wages.

How about they deal with this ethical issue first before they start lecturing anyone. STOP leeching off the ordinary citizens of this country like a parasite & head over to the UK if you think you'll do better there.

I ceased paying the licence in 2019, I refuse to fund progressive ideological dogma

And I wouldn't mind but it's middle Ireland that pay their bloody TV licence.

Maybe if we all stop paying it they might do a show about middle Ireland.

It seems to work well for the non payers.

I don't agree with the comment of gathering them up and gasing them like what happened with the Jews and Hitler, that's disgusting

I thought the Mahon dude was the singer Paddy Casey

No but they will scam them from their last penny.

This is in the media now because a certain group of you know what people are afraid that some of their walfare may be frozen because of the influx of Ukrainian people .

It's all about who shouts loudest gets first .

And they are well able to shout with Rte and the government as their puppets.

I think that Ian lad would be an asset to the Gardai

bejeezus

Yes, why not allow him join? Surely he’s allowed to progress too?

If he has no criminal record, his vetting would be clear, he should ask more questions as to why refused

bejeezus

Absolutely -the table is the place for it. And of course ordinary decent honest-to-God hardworking people need to keep a ceiling over their head

( you really should have something between yourself and the roof ). On top of all that -the flamin' wolf must be kept from the door...

I always insist on a strict no-nonsense lupine resistance policy.😁

There is no excuse justification for criminal activity or violence, the senator was wrong

Fair play to the posters who watched the show last night, the minute I heard what the discussion would be about the channel was changed.

JP Liz V1

I thought Hughie spoke well when he was left

Chrissie was piping in way too much

Man Vs ManUre

She didn’t ask Hughie anything about his Brazilian buttjob,, lip fillers, Botox or hair transplant.

Like yourself, I instantly changed channel, I've already got high blood pressure, it would have hit the roof had I watched this shyte 😁

The irony of RTE dedicating so much resources to covering this Ethnically Recognised cohort is that few if any of them actually have a TV licence and the notion of paying for one would horrify them, it would be deemed as bad as having to pay a court fine 😏

I just watched on the player.

I think the vetting for a prospective member of the Garda goes deeper than that. It may flag associations or relationships with convicted criminals gang land etc.

freshpopcorn

When we were in secondary school we did careers and I'm fairly sure we were told that if you or your family had dealings with the Gardaì there wasn't any point of applying!

I'd say if you dig deep enough everyone has criminal activity relative skeletons
