    Is there anyway these two can be expelled from the dail?
    It's one thing to be doing this sort of thing in normal times but during a pandemic. They are, as the article says an embarrassment to the country and with not a brain cell between them.
    And what's even worse are the morons who voted them in.
    Gob****es. https://www.irishexaminer.com/news/politics/arid-40262480.html

    Mod warning 18th November 2024

    I would like to remind everyone that we have dedicated threads for the Israel/Palestine conflict and the Russia/Ukraine conflict. We don't for Serbia/Kosovo, but honestly I don't see the relevance and how we ended up talking about it. You are welcome to bring these topics if they relate to opinions that Wallace and Daly have expressed, but any generic discussion on these topics will result in bans and/or the thread being permanently closed.

    They're not members of the Dail, so that's your first hurdle to overcome.

    I don’t know what’s worse? Those gob****es or someone now knowing they’re MEPs not TDs.

    Just remember.

    The Irish people voted them into the Dàil and Europe.

    Yet we like to shift all the blame onto the politicans.

    Some day the penny will drop.

    they spoke out publicly against both garda commissioners long before it was popular to do so , the guards tried to stitch Claire Daly up on a drink driving rap around that time

    well thats bull****. Even she didnt suggest that and admitted to A, Having performed an illegal manouvre and B, Having consumed whiskey.

    A stitch up would have involved a false reading surely?

    So thats zero for two Mad. Next?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Remember everyone, the cranks and no-goods get elected as EU Parlimentarians.

    EU parliament makes the Dail seem like a bastion of good sense and civility. It makes Sinn Fein look like a party full of PhD graduates.

    Absolutely astonishing and extremely disappointing that a woman like Daly who claims to be a feminist adopted the anti-woman black attire worn in Iraq. Incredible stuff from her.

    In other words, is she taking the mick?:P

    Dumb ****s were censured in the EU parliament for claiming that Assad never used chemical weapons and that it's all a conspiracy by the whest.

    ****ing embarrassment.

    Apparently the two halfwits went on a visit to Iraq, where they met militants backed by Iran, who obviously fed them a crock of sh*t to the effect that the chemical attack by Assad, was in fact a lie put out by Western powers, to give them an excuse to bomb Syria. The European parliament shut him up straight away, and then had to apologise for his ridiculous nonsense. The bould Mick was irate, and shouted about his right to free speech, etc. Those two are an almighty embarrassment to the Irish people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,176 ✭✭✭blackwhite


    I've never agreed with Daly's politics, but in general she seemed to be quite well respected across the political spectrum before she got herself involved with Wallace. She really seems to have gone off the deep end lately though
    The silence from all of her cheerleaders on here is deafening though - could only imagine the hundreds of outraged posts we'd get if they weren't heroes of the looney left

    I see these two heroic defenders of human rights seem to have lost their tongues when it comes to a Putin-allied dictator committing what amounts to hijacking a civilian aircraft in order to kidnap a journalist who dares criticise him.

    Aren't we lucky to have such wonderful representation in the European Parliament.

    I know they voted against sanctions towards Belarus and China, while the SF MEPs abstained.



    Do we know how Ming voted? Hard to find voting records.

    I'm not a cheerleader, she was my local TD and I was polar opposite to her on politics. But she is genuine and hard working in what she does and even i can recognise that. It's more than most (or all) in Irish politics.

    She did vote against vaccine passports in the EU one of the few that did.
    redeemed her a bit in my eyes.

    Until she got involved with Wallace I'd have agreed with that.
    Since then she seems to have abandoned all principles and has destroyed her credibility.

    Can you imagine her staying silent on the Belarussian kidnapping of a journalist if it had happened 5/6 years ago? She used to work in aviation don't forget

    Here's his voting record: https://www.votewatch.eu/en/term9-luke-ming-flanagan.html

    You're not quite right about what you say, though.

    Wallace and Daly voted against, and Ming abstained from, the recent vote regarding "Chinese countersanctions on EU entities and MEPs and MPs" on on the 20th of May. This was a vote to freeze a trade deal with China until they lifted sanctions on various EU politicians (which China did in retaliation to EU sanctions on China).

    There was no vote on the actual sanctions on China and Belarus in the EU Parliament, as those sanctions were imposed by the European Council, not the EU Parliament.

    And if it was another property developer who decided it wasn't worth his while paying back money he borrowed she would be screaming for his head but she has nothing to say at all about Wallace.

    That's more or less why Paul Murphy pushed her out of whatever political grouping she and he were both memebers of a few years ago. (The Monster Raving Cretin Party or somesuch, IIRC.)

    Just listening to him now on Newstalk breakfast ....

    He talking up China as some sort of utopian state.

    Apparently all the human rights issues are just propaganda from European and US right wing fascists!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,176 ✭✭✭blackwhite


    Wallace in Newstalk this morning signing the praises of the CCP.

    He’s gone full conspiracy theory loon at this stage.

    No detention of Uighur population apparently. No detention of journalists and no suppression of free speech there either

    Managed to shoe-horn in some Putinist propaganda as well
