    Give it over.

    The poor who receive 400k houses for free?

    And then knock them back.

    Tomorrow's debate is going to be pointless, the same nonsense all over again without the winner.

    Peter Casey not taking part?

    Some very recent polls show a massive swing towards him.

    Can one of them tell us they will put a man on the sun by 2025?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭Icsics


    God almighty Gallagher is tedious!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,351 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    Why is casey so obsessed with the diaspora?!?
    F#ck em. Diasprabook.... Zzz... A billion ffs lol.
    For someone who proclaims to be in tech sector he seems a tad clueless.

    Casey is all bluster and no substance, don't think he is having a good night, a lot of his points are incoherent and scatter shot.... And a wee job for the wife great. He managed to name some woman from a page wow.

    I actually think liadh ní Riada has done well when she has spoke here but hasn't been given much chance to speak.

    Sean Gallagher has a particular set of skills. Skills that make him a nightmare to people like us....

    That was 6 families. The population is over 4 million.

    Serious question.

    Are these debates organised to help the viewers figure out who they dislike the least and then vote for them?

    Yeah but those houses are not located next door to Mammy and Daddy. #poverty

    Gallagher sounds so much like Navan Man. Just can't take him seriously


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 539 ✭✭✭Shakey_jake


    Gallagher talking out his hole again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,875 ✭✭✭take everything


    Whatever about being full of bull****, Gallagher has got the gestures and mannerisms down pat.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,349 ✭✭✭Wombatman


    One good soundbite from Casey and he might come second.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,593 ✭✭✭Wheeliebin30

    Gallagher will say anything and use anyone what a scumbag


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,072 ✭✭✭Tipsy McSwagger


    If you had someone running like Michael O Leary he would wipe the floor with this lot

    Some people seem to think the head of these organisations should be doing it for €30k a year. If you want something run well you’ve to pay for that.
    If she’s a capable lady, and she seems to be based on what I know of Pieta House, then €86k is very cheap

    I thought she left them last year?

    But yes I agree to an extend about the salary, your not going to get someone able to run an organisation that big unless you pay them, because if they are capable, the chances are they will get even more in other private money making business.

    I think though for charities, that it should be more open so that there is no doubt with anyone that there are big wages being paid.

    No proper polls with anything approaching respected methodology.

    Fill your boots if you think he will win.

    Ain't going to happen.
