Cant believe David is asking Joan a question. I'm outraged. Just like Joan.

McCullagh threw his pen down on the podium.

Fed up.

Used to chat to a lady on the train to Cork when I lived down there. She always told me I'd make a great politician. I took it as a compliment for ages. I'm beginning to question that as each election passes.

She was calling you a bullsher

I just puked a little in my own mouth

Well folks I think we can all agree the presenter is as absolute embarrassment.

Constantly interrupting and not at all in control or steering the debate in any sort of informative manner.

OK did I miss it but was the question about tax asked to MDH? Or was that an opportune ad break?

He is a public servant - his is known

I'm the only woman from the Gaelteacht to run - is it a medal she wants?

Liadh throwing the kitchen sink at it there to scramble a few votes.

Gaeltacht, woman, don't you know who my Dad is? all in the same sentence.

NiRiada said she want to be the voice of the marginalised. Please don't let her be the VOICE of anything. Very close to Mrs. Doyle's falsetto.

Marbles in her mouth, absolutely obnoxious.

Let’s see if he roasts Michael D on expenses now.

tayto lover · 23-10-2018 10:22PM

Mickey D and his speeches again. We don't feckin care about your speeches.

touts · 23-10-2018 10:22PM

This lecture in Queens must have been bloody good because it is the only thing Micky D can cite everytime he wants to tell us what he's been doing for the last 7 years.

C__MC · 23-10-2018 10:22PM

Poor by ni Riada tonight

Solid enough last week but a very lack luster effort tonight

Shakey_jake · 23-10-2018 10:23PM

What about his private enterprise? Calling BS on it.

Mary Lou is going to be raging with LNR after releasing their loophole about their "average wage".

She whitewashes her political party from her rehearsed "about me" speech

Fann Linn · 23-10-2018 10:23PM

Only in Ireland. Publish the accounts after I've been elected.
Sounds fairly South American/Banana Republic to me.

Well than you cant abuse them for running and winning

Errr I don't think I've abused anyone. Just because I don't want to be a politician doesn't mean I can't have an oponion on their performance!

The Talking Bread · 23-10-2018 10:23PM

Liadh S.O.U.N,D. B.Y.T.E.S Ní Riada

She just spoke for 5 minutes in riddles there, throwing in randomn buzz words like Gaeltacht, woman, legacy, pride, Brexit and mentioning who her Daddy is etc w/o saying absolutely anything

The two ladies and Gavin haven't had a good night. Not sure what to say about SG's performance tonight, to be honest.
