Peter Casey believes Travellers should not be recognised as an ethnic minority

Omackeral

They haven't a clue what your actual regular Traveller is like when Pavee Point and the cameras aren't rolling and chaperoning. They'd sh*t themselves if they were in a pub that was descended upon by a Traveller wedding.

Complete lies from them. Good that Peter is calling them out.

Wow. I heard it myself today by someone who is usually well-informed politically speaking. That Michael D. did in fact object to that halting site. Didn't want to blurt it out in case there was no basis to it, but PC is saying it's on record.

All the other 5 candidates are clambering for the non-existent traveller vote :pac:

Pat Kenny is the best current affairs presenter in Ireland.

Claire Byrne doesn’t hold a candle to him.

I think Casey peaked too soon.

But hopefully not. I do hope his utterances gain some traction and debate. I am not hopeful though given the way MSM stifles any debate re Travellers and non EU Immigrants and so on. Issues we are interested in and wish to talk about but cannot.

Bet your house is worth thousands more than if you weren't in that area.:P

It's all about people who actually pay for their houses and contribute you see. I do not blame them at all.

Peter Casey has thrown a bomb into what was until now a dull pat on the back for Mickey d by the media and political cronies.

The President is sounding very 'er Presidential, unlike the FASCIST contender.

Does the fascist contender look up to dictators?

You must be joking all those candidates have at least 4 or 5 houses, you're probably looking at 25 odd sites:pac:

It's a pity we don't have a presidential election every year, this is gold. Peter Casey standing by his guns, you have to respect that.

Gavin duffy has put a decent dig into MDH there...But then let's go to a commercial break.:(

With the traveller questions over with I fear the debate becoming a bit boring.
Unless Crazy Pete comes out with some more gems.
