    Avoiding naming him as he sure likes his lawyers.

    Anyway i'm after a history lesson on him. Media won't report on him as he will sue, what with being a gowl and all. There exists archive footage of interviews of him, when and why did he stop?

    When he realised you can't be directly elected Taoiseacht and there wasn't a big enough minority group with enough hate to drill up support.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    The poor fellow is worn out from modernising the Caribbean and Pacific.

    ..in a - we assume - totally honest and transparent manner. Just like things he's been involved in here.

    He does come across as a right knob.

    Not exactly narrowing down the tax-dodging non-resident-for-tax-purposes parasite there. Loads of talent to choose from.

    He speaks to the media privately, out of respect to his employees, as he owns most of it,

    Everything that's wrong with how this country is run, he is the embodiment of it. And he has a block head. Lego head.

    Ah but didn’t he become chairman of the 2003 Special Olympics and pay half the salaries of Martin O’Neill and Trappatoni

    Man of the people or so he tries

    First you do whatever crooked actions it takes to become rich and powerful

    Then when you're a billionaire you can go back and show everyone what a wounderful person you are by throwing a few quid here and there.

    You don't need to speak to the media when you own most of it!
