    Casey is very weak. Pity. I had him each way @ 200/1. He should stick to generalising about ethnic groups. That's his core vote.

    Mickey D looks exasperated


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,605 ✭✭✭✭FourFourRED


    Mickey D is incredibly close to falling asleep.

    Can someone wheel in a bed for him?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,681 ✭✭✭Try_harder


    He said Synonyms not Similar Sean!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭SimonTemplar


    McCullagh specifically asked Casey for the names of his council of state and seemed exasperated each time he named one. Awful moderator.

    Micheal D is getting away scot free tonight. I’d say he can’t believe his luck. He could have taken his pipe and slippers out.

    If Casey wins are we gonna blame Russian meddling?

    €86K according to the Sindo. Some serious salaries in those charities.

    Not really that much for running a large organisation

    Michael D was just looking around, as if he just had a "oh my God, where the hell is my jet" moment

    FYP

    Jesus, this whole MDH and "he said he'd only serve one term" is getting old. Are people not allowed to change their minds?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,235 ✭✭✭Pussyhands


    Fair length of time for an old man like Miggledy to be standing unassisted. Impressive!

    Wait till we see him in 7 years. He'll look like that every day as they wheel him about and put a pen in his hands to sign legislation into effect.

    He has his finger on Ireland's pulse and knows we yearn to stop the incessant cyberbullying on LinkedIn
    Those damn recruiters

    That was some impressive side-eye from Michael D. when Gallagher was gushing about his "half-century in public life".

    Yes.

    Maybe.

    Does Casey want facebook to pay us a billion euro to build us an Irish version of facebook?


    Heard on RTE radio this morning that in 10 years time 25% of the electricity used in this country will be in data centres, not a good idea for us with the brutal power links we will have post Brexit and the consumer already paying more for electricity than most in the EU.

    Gallagher looking impatient

    We haven’t heard his disingenuous tones for all of about 10 mins

    Yawn!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,462 ✭✭✭✭WoollyRedHat


    People should actually should complain about Mc Cullagh's moderating, it's absolutely dreadful and well below the standards you would expect from the National Broadcaster...

    Gallagher is the complete spoofer.

    Pat Kenny is the absolute master of these type debates. Nobody on Irish Telly comes close.
