    I remember this being reported. Nobody cared.

    Pat Kenny hadn't classed him as a killer at that stage and some of us were happy to have some of our constitutional permission back slightly.
    A weak lier is not what we need now, how can you trust anything the man says after he comes out and blatantly lies to everyone.

    So you do though! So I’m not going to get riled up because you’re on a mission.

    Away you go, scream, rant and rage all you want but this isn’t the smoking gun you’re trying to turn it into.

    He's caught out badly here. The guidelines are clear at the time. A complete hypocrite.

    I’d like one of Martin’s defenders here to explain why it was a work event rather than a personal event. At least then we can try to have some sort of a debate. Thats all we can do until Martin provides evidence it was a work event.

    This shop is also an extremely busy indoor shop and this is level 5. The foot traffic inside the English market is unbelievable. No idea why he's in there without mask.

    It became a work event when he was attending as Taoiseach
    A bit like when you marry your girlfriend they become your wife but they are also still your friend
    Ditto here,the event obviously has meaning as (unconfirmed but likely) he attends every year
    Baically events he attends become state business/official capacity by default
    Ergo this is a manufactured outrage facilitated by the grudge holding twosome that brought us other matters a bit fruitier than this

    The gruesome twosome are scouring the country looking for things like this
    Bad show when it took them 4 months to get sent something as insignificant as this
    So he takes off his mask for photo's at 2m+ distance
    So what

    Masks are for optics a virtual signaling show of solidarity with Government policy. I'm glad he's not wearing one but he needs to stop the sharade they're worth the dystopian life they've inflicted upon us.
    I'm done with them, one too many eye infections not partaking in the nonsense any longer, I'll take my first fine the whole way to the supreme court or higher if necessary, you can thank me later.

    If you’re getting “one too many eye infections” from wearing a mask, you’re doing it wrong.

    Unless you’re Zorro

    Well said. The virus spreads best at large indoor gatherings.

    Masks are no benefit other than optics.

    The medical community disagree with your idea of mask use, but yes, go ahead and pat each other on the back, strength in numbers and all that

    That would be on only members of the medical community allowed on the TV? When opposing just as qualified opinions aren't allowed.
    There is no evidence to support them, when science is unsure they conduct an experiment, thanks for your participation.

    You can use anything for a mask as it's not about safety it's about compliance.
    Our mask mandate wasn't implemented on the back of any science or on the advice of world renowned scientists, we did have a respected scientist warn our government cases could go up with a mask mandate and they did.

    Anyway MM knows what's up, penny hasn't dropped with the flock just yet though.

    You can certainly use anything for a mask if you dont give a damn about covid 19
    You can also ignore things completely like Arklows parish priest and be on a ventilator for the past 2 months
    Yes you can most certainly take those risks

    That would be the one built by the FF donor John Fleming, interesting to know what he paid for it. Everyone else barred from their holiday homes yet MM has taken up residence there, wonder where his current fixed abode is this weekend.

    Not sure what your trying to say here, the priest didn't follow the Government mandate to wear a face covering so he ended up on a ventilator for 2mts?
    Are you doubting the merits of the mandate?

    He never wore a mask and had to be practically restrained at a pre xmas communion event as he was hugging as many people as would let him
    Didnt believe in social distancing
    He carried on with symptoms for a week until an ambulance had to be called because he collapsed
    He's been on a ventilator since
    The church are staying silent on him because it doesnt play well with their open up the churches messge...
    I've zero tollerence for covidiodocy,so you can carry on ,we have to expect a minority not making an effort
    A few months to go before a majority are vaccinated thankfully

    We've one a regular at the sheebeen, there's a big difference between the corner shop and an operating theater. Ask a surgeon their opinion on healthy people as in not showing or feeling any symptoms wearing one.

    So no early intervention to prevent onset of complications, thought as much.
    We make no effort to educate or prevent the illness progressing, we've now moved to the Vaccine is the answer while ignoring the cure.
    Majority won't be vaccinated well not the 80% of the population Kingston Mills claims is necessary, wait until they come after the children the whole plan falls apart then and we can't hit herd immunity without them.

    Does this only apply to the Taoiseach or other politicians also? Golfgate seems to imply that this does not apply to other politicians. Where are these rules written down?
