No, no it's not.

McCullagh is acting disgracefully here. Desperate.

Haha. Casey is some fool.

The truth that they refuse to acknowledge that Traveller's cause 90% of their own problems.

Our schools would happily teach them if they encouraged attendance and commitment to education. Our employers would happily employ them if they'd do an honest days work for an honest days pay.

But many, many Traveller's won't do either of those things because that'd remove them from their gravy train.

Boom. Very well said.

There are loads of things that would poll well which no political party will touch with a bargepole.

The death penalty.
Three strikes.
Corporal punishment.
Spike island/internment for repeat offenders/druggies/thugs/travellers.
Anti-asylum seeker policies.

Casey has just blundered across one or two of these, anti-traveller and anti-dole scrounger sentiment. No government is going near these ideas.

Spike island is now a really lovely tourist attraction making lots of money. No way is that being turned back into a prison. I highly recommend anyone who has never been to give it a look. It is amazing.

This is a very weak field with very poor candidates. Micky D has my vote again.

I'd spoil my vote but I hate Sean G enough to not waste it.

Was thinking the same. McCullagh is also quite a poor host.

They have been participating much more in education in recent times.

Educational attainment among Travellers has risen strongly in the past 17 years, but it is still far lower than that of the general population, according to figures contained in a survey published today.

A national survey of Travellers has found that 16% now complete their Leaving Certificate, compared to just 2% in the year 2000.

It found that 40% of Travellers have completed their Junior Certificate or an equivalent, compared to just 9% 17 years ago.

LNR is showing herself up and her defective "socialists" beliefs with her "lining your own pocket" remarks.

He's proving he's smarter than the rest of these eejits and keeping quiet.

Going to spoil my vote on this one, for the first time ever; it's something I've been very hesitant to do in the past.

When you see them all lined up you'd realise that we've six of the most uninspiring, two-dimensional candidates.

Agree actually. The bickering amongst one another is just amateur and a waste of time.

He comes across terribly when he speaks though. He agreed to a "schedule". What??

Michael D is living a lie up in that Aras and he stands there in that debate saying he never hides anything from the public. How about the fact that his helper is his lover. I’d respect the man more if he came out and admitted. That and the fact he has the personality of a wooden door.

I'd respect you if you had any proof of that wild accusation. But you don't so I don't

Are you his missus that he's going to appoint to his Council of State?

That's going to hurt him.

MDH's private life is his own when it doesn't impinge on the office. As was Mary McAleese's, Dev's etc etc.
