    Casey is difficult to listen to. He always appears like he had 1 or 2 fast pints.

    Funny to see Shinners like you cheerlead RTE and the Irish Times when it suits your agenda

    Class solidarity, sad to say.

    He's a decent economic commentator but I hate that comic sociological sideline he does.

    RTE impartial and balanced in carefully hand-picking two university educated travellers, which is completely unreflective of vast majority.

    Yep, he was visibly irate there for a while, if he was attempting to make Casey lose his cool it backfired. He lost his own.

    Still ran runs around the incoherent hatchet jobs waiting in the audience. And that's saying something seen as Casey seems to barely know where he is.

    Does he know anything about society or politics at all?

    He's also rude to other speakers, unaware of the political and sociological developments in Ireland and quite obviously stupid.

    Some of that would be more bearable if he paid any tax here.

    I would question how much the journalist actually attended class, made a fool of himself. I don't think either speakers did themselves any favours.

    Not really a fan of Casey but this is a little bit of a setup.

    In general, the whole traveller debate in Ireland is crying out for a reasoned and compassionate debate about the glaring disproportionate social issues in the travelling community, the bogus ethnic designation and how the avoidance/suppression of said honest discussion actually condemns future traveller generations to a future of social issues and marginalization

    As it stands though, the debate is colonized by the familiar political extremes.

    No they want travellers held accountable for their criminal actions and entitlement culture

    Why does he even want to be a politician, he seems to be a complete gob****e who knows nothing about politics? I’m baffled :confused:

    Alas, some do. And I'm bemused by how anyone tuning in tonight would be taken in by this snakeoil salesman.
