    If by some fluke any of these sanctimonious chancers replace MDH they had better not take anything other than an Ass and Cart for official business.

    Well, horses and carts, (well appointed carts), are good enough for the English Queen!

    All three dragons I'm guessing are running on a platform of staying exclusively in Ibis Budget accommodation during their presidency

    Gallagher is still fighting the 2011 election tbf

    Tbf, RTE was the reason Gallagher got screwed last time round, this time round they are protecting MDH.

    Here you have Casey being made to answer a question, but MDH was allowed to deflect the question and they moved on.

    Everyone should be treated equally, you’re a racist. Christ almighty.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,651 ✭✭✭Underground


    Pure nonsense from Ni Riada. Stopped just short of calling him a nazi.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 682 ✭✭✭small town girl


    Missing the audience interaction I think, no sense of atmosphere

    Can someone clarify for me Gallagher scenerio in 2011?

    Did he take brown envelopes or was that lies with the tweet?

    Gallagher pretty much admitted that he had collected donations for FF (in brown envelopes) after being confronted live on TV by Pat Kenny that Martin McGuinness' twitter account was about to release evidence of such. But it wasn't McGuinness' official account and there was no evidence.

    So argument became should RTE have thrown this at Gallagher all of a sudden, as though there was evidence about to come out, which left him stuttering just before the election - especially as they were shown not to have checked their source. But under pressure Gallagher used the infamous term - 'Brown envelopes'

    Anyone is else think McCullough is going in harder on Casey than Michael D over the jet?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,431 ✭✭✭TheRiverman


    Pointless "debate".David McCullagh is awful.Micheal D to win easily.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,157 ✭✭✭Ronan|Raven


    Casey is a bumbling mess. He cannot even form a coherent sentence. The council's that allowed a bollox like him go forward should hang their heads in shame.

    Oh but sure he tells it like it is...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 55,682 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    Casey is 100 percent right about equality.
    RTE trying their best to down him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭368100


    David McCullagh is great.....glad he's hosting this rather than Miriam
