You were clearly complaining about the approach taken, as was the twitter post shared, and I asked you what help you believe gloves would be.

If it's clearly complaining, it won't be difficult for you to point the complaining part out in the post.

I'm starting to feel like I'll be waiting for a long time.

Irony.

I’ll ring the Department of Health and let them know that Matt Barrett and McMurphy have come up with a plan to keep Ireland coronavirus free. It’s a plan based on their expertise in everything and has been tested on Twitter.:rolleyes:

Silly, it is a plan based on criticising whatever Harris does, regardless of right or wrong.

Top tip for Harris before you gobs off the the press again.
I was answering a query. Now you go off and wave at any incoming planes to let them know to turn back.

So you are suggesting that in a situation where the Government has been advised of certain action based on a medical emergency, that they should stop and not take action until they have consulted relevant interest groups? Pretty stupid way to do things if you ask me.

If you had been following this story in any sensible way, the issue was a mass gathering where people who may be carriers were likely to be there, not international travel, not a particular game. Hysterical attempts to cast aspersions on the government are just hysterical.



Did you notice that the UK scaled back their advice to schools today back to the advice given out in Ireland yesterday? That people should only self-isolate if they have symptoms. Yesterday the UK were closing schools left, right and centre, today they are saying only self-isolate with symptoms.

People are being given advice all the time, but the one thing that we do know for certain - it will be close to impossible for Ireland to avoid having a case and it will be extremely difficult to avoid an epidemic.

Of course, no matter what happens, in your eyes, it will all be Harris' fault.

I'm stating that Harris should have contacted the IRFU before making an announcement to the press.
Your comment is the standard infer and answer your own inference. Not related to my comment.
And we get to your flawed conclusion based on your inference.
I said he should have contacted the IRFU before making an announcement to the press. If anything is Harris' fault, it's Harris' fault. If it's not it's not. Making an announcement about the cancellation of a rugby match before talking to the IRFU, yeah that would be on Sio. Maybe he came out of election hiding too soon?

You asked a question, it got answered and now you are trying to pretend you didn't ask. My suggestion was based on what they are doing in other countries.
If you don't want answers don't ask questions. Pretty basic stuff dude.

Why would you possibly post a tweet of someone complaining about how Dublin airport is dealing with the virus if you didn't agree with the comment?

If you don't believe gloves are necessary then what was your point in repeating that element of the post?

Looks like you're trying pull an even weaker attempt at covering yourself than Trump's use of 'many people are saying'. SAD

Sounds more like you're struggling to make a laboured burn on a poster as is the only response FG seem capable of on any issue, since having their arses handed to them.

This is FG for the next 5 years

Look at it lads, youse came in in 2011 with a decimated FF and a barely there SF. The SD's didn't even exist and the Greens were off the radar. Roll on 9 years or so and you are playing third fiddle to SF and FF, afraid to criticise FF in case you need them or end up supporting them in some form and any shot at government in the future looks like more of the same with the added bonus of having to kiss the arse of the SD's who likely won't touch yis or the Green's who might. Enjoy boys

'Relishing' going into opposition and the other day 'reaffirming' they were going into opposition.

The talks are a ruse so they don't get judged too harshly should an election be called. Complete chiselers and hypocrites on this.
FF, who ushered in a financial melt down and assisted FG in giving us generational debt are fine and dandy to partner with for 'stability' but now it looks like MM wants the crown, Varadkar can't handle it. So much for the 'stability' con.

Even the Indo is calling them out on it. Why? Because a blind horse can see it.

Yesterday, Micheál Martin and Leo Varadkar held exploratory talks on the possibility of government formation. It is not believed they shared any pancakes.

Instead, there was a lot palaver as the party leaders, who held the last government together for four years, feigned a sudden insurmountable difficulty to sharing office.

Talks about the possibility of having talks. More than two weeks after the actual election. Presumably both men have each other's phone number. Could someone have put in a call before now and saved us all the theatrics?

Yep. A con. I mean why would stability be so important when it suited FG and FF, but not now? Likely because Leo isn't relishing playing court jester to Micheal's king.

Kind of to be expected. For both, the party leader was naturally Taoiseach when in government with minor parties or independents. Must be an awful shock to the system to have to contemplate a rotating Taoiseach or perhaps a sort of "power sharing" agreement (the "Táinaiste" [on paper] really getting an equal input into all of the decisions).
I'd imagine the horrible vista of fighting another general election may help them swallow it!

They reaffirmed yesterday that they were going into opposition. The talks are likely a show. It would make more sense if they said they were open to talks but likely going into opposition.

Fine Gael has dismissed as “very arrogant” Fianna Fáil claims that only Micheál Martin can be taoiseach in the next government.

First of all... :D (FG calling anyone arrogant).

But what happened to "The onus is now on Fianna Fail to form a government"
and
"The people voted for change, we are willing to respect that"?
Surely this is showing that they are not willing to respect that, and as for this.. https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/varadkar-open-to-confidence-and-supply-agreement-with-ff-even-if-the-shoe-was-on-the-other-foot-950529.html

He's not. The LV ego is the big stumbling block. That's why I reckon if they do come to an arrangement, LV will resign because it will require MM holding the reins and LV won't wear that.
