    Did she spend the 700k on lunch?

    But seriously this is crazy that she's not having to pay it all. Glad she's left with at least a good chunk of the bill.

    I think the judge has a point here. She was treated badly by showboating TD's who didn't act in a professional manner during the hearing. Hopefully they show a bit more cop on in future.

    She fed at the trough from a charity. So the TDs did a bit grandstanding, but I would have thought her hide should have been as thick as her neck and she should have dealt with it.

    I'd buy a seriously big sandwich.

    And then not eat it.

    Christ, that's living.

    More like 200 odd, she is left owing approx 70k according to a report on Newstalk.

    Still very punitive, but a realistic sum to pay back to the taxpayer.

    Better that than an unrealistic bill that would be written off.
