Isn't it bizarre that RTE didn't put in to the audience, real travellers, the ones that most people are familiar with? You know, the vast vast majority of travellers.
Instead they found two who have college places. I cannot swallow that they were being impartial there.

I actually thought since they were in UCD and college, they would really put it on Casey. But they were awful speakers. Did I hear correctly they are in Pavee Point?

It's not going to change the minds of many who voted for Casey. All tonight did was confirm that Tubridy and his ilk are out of touch with many ordinary Irish people. Ambushes are counter intuitive anyway. It would be better for everyone if the issues Casey raised were addressed properly, not dismissed as small minded racism.

Not a hope in hell will he win a single seat

Not a hope in hell will he start a party

Not a hope in hell of rising up trough an existing party

Look at Renua complete flop

You guys stay here online doing what you're good at, ranting and raving. politics is more a real world thing, not for you.

A person who kept coming into my mind during the whole campaign was Padraig Nally, that man was tormented by the "ethnic minority" for years and on that one evening that he finally tried to defend himself and his property he was punished for it

They should have wheeled out the 'nice reasonable knacker' that was on the Brendan O Connor show last week.

Instead, they drew in ignorant Pavees to the 'discussion' .

CLOSE DOWN PAVEE POINT RIGHT NOW!

Ignorant cretins, the lot of them!

See it as an investment to the future of the country.

Looks like Tubs and RTE mishandling and ambushing has led to more folk siding with Casey.

What were they thinking, so much for his bluster about being "real".

If it's an asylum run by Eoin O'Broin it will allow anyone in

This is how the left works. They are spoilt children who dont believe in debate. They push an unfounded narrative and try and bully everyone to going along with it and those who dont are smeared.....but the world is beginning to wake up and see them for what they are. And they are desperately clinging to the bit of power they have.

On the other point, since when did the establishment, give a fúck about the electorate anyway? See bank bailout 2008.

I'm glad you are not one of the many elderly country residents terrified in their own homes tonight.

How big of you.

What would be bigger is you calling these people out and standing up to them and defending the weak in society.

we do. some people don't want to hear it because it doesn't suit their agenda however.

Peter Denham · 03-11-2018 02:37AM

The biggest loser tonight was intelligent discourse. Everyone involved came across poorly.

Fine - that's your issue.

so what if he is defending the travelers from ill informed comments and stereotypes? because that is all any of us who will step in to defend the travelers are doing.

I want to know now what you say to the many terrified elderly people down the country tonight (never mind the middle aged) that are in their own homes frightened they will be broken it to, beaten up, robbed or killed while you and people like you constantly defend this group.

Tell us what you have to say to them?

nothing as nobody is defending the criminals within the traveling community and everyone agrees the laws of the land must be enforced.

Kermit.de.frog wrote: »

You like coming across all morally righteous.

even if that was true, which it isn't, it's irrelevant because defending people from ill informed comments isn't being done because one wants to be morally righteous, but because it is the correct thing to do.

Be better to close down Pavee Point.

Cut off the oxygen to the swines involved in it.

They do the travelling community no favours whatsoever.

CLOSE IT DOWN NOW LEO!!!

I'll presume you're just as outraged at the entire settled community of Ireland for the murder in Athy, the murder in Foxrock, the murder of Gareth Hutch and the abduction and rape in Ringsend, etc.

Add in any amount of crimes committed by members of the settled community.

I guess, by your logic, the only conclusion one can come to is that settled people are scum.

Just because Peter Casey pays tax in dollars rather than Euro, you shouldn't assume everybody else in Ireland does too.

Or perhaps you should stick to a US forum, where it seems you'd be more at home.

I was kind of thinking the same, where did this come from, I know we're all giving out about Tubridy but bringing this into it is just off the wall

I'd say there's some ignorant pigs scoffing in the trough there.

Lots of 'educated' ignorant swines with a strong bang of 'their rights' about them.

I wish they would go away from us. just go away.

Just let us get on with our lives in a reasonable way.

Cut off the fat self-entitled self-serving ignorant pig's gravy train Leo.

Do us all a favour, for a change.

"Tubridy started in broadcasting at the age of 12, reviewing books for the RTÉ 2FM show Poporama presented by Ruth Buchanan"

From his wikipedia. I don't know too many 12 year olds who land a gig in RTE.
Tubridy is inside the tent, they look out for their own. He's about as far removed from the average Paddy as Mark Zuckerberg and a child on the trocaire box. Tonight is probably one of his only encounters with travellers in his entire life.
