    The next Comissioner needs to come from outside the GardaAnything else is a waste of time.

    They'll probably hire the American wan who's been mooching around the place like a bad smell. No better than than hiring another insider

    We should abolish An Garda Siochana altogether.

    It's well passed it's sell-by date.....not fit for purpose.

    Vile woman.

    She made sure she got her 3 years as commissioner so she could retire on the commissioner pension.

    What a rotten vile human being. No doubt she will be replaced with someone of a similar ilk.

    Good riddance.

    There needs to be a radical overhaul of the organisation now.

    She obviously has dirt on the government, possibly turning a blind eye to the odd murder something along those lines.

    It's the only possible explanation.

    She knows who meets in hooded robes to sacrifice virgins at the Hellfire Club?

    Mod- Threads merged. Also no personal abuse of Noirin is allowed. Discuss her job no problem.

    The whole affair leaves a very bad taste in the mouth.

    +1. The organisation is too seperate from the public. It's run like an old boys club.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,165 ✭✭✭Captain Obvious


    Bring on the next sacrifice.

    Michael O Leary for next Garda commissioner.

    I hoe this puts an end to the clamour for gender equality in the top jobs here.
    We need the best whether that's a man or woman it doesn't matter as long as they are the best fit

    Mob rule, judging by this thread.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    I assumed you would have to give your employer more than a few hours notice you are retired!

    Good riddance.

    She was in line for a lump sum of €300K if she was still in the job in November.
    If it was just about the money I reckon she'd have hung on and brazened it out.
    So the question is - did she jump, or was she pushed?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,199 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    E300k tax free lump sum and and a pension of E100k

    Sure who wouldn't resign under those conditions!

    Walk away and a two finger gesture to all of us.

    Democratically elected community watchmen who will execute with extreme prejudice every two-bit knacker that strolls into the area.

    It's free to ring the police but there are added extras if you want them to do something.

    €20 to respond to an incident.
    €25 to take a statement.
    €100 penalty if you didnt order the cop online and print out your complaint.

    Imagine she was so deluded to think she had a shot at getting a top job in Interpol with her track record.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,962 ✭✭✭r93kaey5p2izun


    Good riddance but it will mean nothing unless there's an overhaul of the organisation and a leader brought in from outside.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,419 ✭✭✭ToddyDoody


    Ridiculous.

    Absolutely ridiculous.

    You know what ? I do believe you're serious.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,199 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    I wonder if she is on duty in the Park until midnight tonight lol!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,419 ✭✭✭ToddyDoody


    Can I have her uniform?

    Also your local station will probably be in a provincial town in Belgium.
