    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

    Weird how you people who hate Casey are the ones most obsessed with him.

    Still rattled after he got 20% of the vote?


    no, as it was only 20% . 80% rejected him and his ideology.

    and how do you think they are going to be closed down? it's not going to happen.

    ticking a box on a form does not make you of a religion.

    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.

    CLOSE DOWN PAVEE POINT NOW!

    "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.

    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.

    The entire traveller community numbers 30,000.

    Remind us what percentage of the prison population they make up. I have forgotten.

    That fat traveller girl was shouting at him afterward, and she was being quite aggressive. She did not come across well at all.

    I actually think RTE and their traveller partners in crime missed a trick. They really should have got some travellers that could actually speak properly and have manners, and put them in the audience. Like that Beanz Ward fella.

    Or Margaret Cash.

    Didn't watch it, knew it was going to be a hatchet job. Looking at Twitter this morning, WOW! RTE are getting hammered for it. Search #PeterCasey or #LateLate and you can barely find a thing that still goes against Casey.

    The political media establishment are very, very, very worried. They are panicking.

    I see on Twitter Jennifer Maguire / Zamadildo claims she had a conversation with Peter Casey after the show and asked him about direct provision (the mind boggles) and claims he had no answer.
    He responded that it was a complete lie and they never spoke.
    She's in the RTE family now. Can't see her being too happy if a bunch of travellers moved next door to her in Ranelagh.....
    And we are paying her wages!!!

    She is talentless and one of these girls who constantly wants people to laugh at her unfunny jokes.

    High maintenance.

    In the cushy RTÉ nest now.

    Just watched the interview was expecting worse

    Casey really isn't impressive, he has few answers and speaks like a kid who has been half media trained but only remembers mid sentence.
    As a few gave said on here if he wanted to fight back and be nasty he had so many chances - how inclusive are travellers of LGBT, how many are in jail, what's your salary Ryan etc.a few open goals missed

    That said I think some of his ideas aren't too bad, helping the working class isn't a natter of taking from welfare, tubirtys binary us vs them world is too thick to see that. Incentivising work doesn't need to mean cutting welfare

    The whole thing is much ado about nothing to be honest, the originals comments weren't racist or even that contraversial if you take the whole media ****e away and out of it.

    Yeah he really isn’t very articulate.

    If there was someone who was able to convey his opinions properly they would do well.

    But I still admire what he said and for standing by his opinion.

    Wrong. The left have made a complete balls of things.
    Why do you think Trump, Brexit and the rise of the far right in Europe has happened?
    Because the left have pushed their agendas on to people until they've said enough.
    For lovers of free speech and democracy the left are very quick to shout down anyone not in agreement with them.
    When British people had fears of immigration and the rise of Islam (which was at odds with the Christian/Church of England values of the country) they were shouted down and called racist or intolerant. Anyone with half a brain could see this would come back to bite some day.
    Merhkel thought it would be a great idea to open the borders to all and sundry. Ordinary citizens weren't happy and voiced concerns....yeah well you're racist and intolerant. Unfortunately again if you don't listen to the people then trouble will rear it's head.
    That's the problem with the left...don't listen to anyone else's concerns and then wonder why they turn on you.

    We don't have and never had a left government.

    Do you even know what a left government is.?

    It's this sort of foolish rethoric that really makes it painful to debate with someone.

    Here is the real problem people like you labelling centerist governments as left. People like you labelling anything that isn't ultra conservative as left. Anything remotely social is left. If you had your way we'd have no healthcare at all like people in the States.

    You are devisive you are deviding people your rethoric your pretending to be the victim. Oh no people won't let me say what I want to say.

    Heres a news flash for you. We live in an open democracy. No one is keeping you down.no one is stopping you saying anything you want. There is no reality that backs up your statements.

    If you view not being a prick in public as being too liberal then I'd scratch my head at what sort of nation you want to live in. Because there is people that fought and died for the freedom you have today and they are ten times the person.

    So Tubridy is nice to the globalist, open borders hack who wants everyone vegan and who has never worked in her life; a complete intellectual charlatan for a group of people that don't have Irish interests in mind, yet he tries to play the tough lad on Casey?

    Casey came out of that mess well.

    He's doing what Trump does in relation to media:

    1: Say something true or what is seen to be true in a hilarious way.
    2: Get the left/the media to freak the fùck out over it.
    3: Hold your position, let them make an arse of themselves, and let people see how much of a freak these people are.
    4: More people come over to your position/agree with you.

    Case in point:

    https://twitter.com/Donal_OKeeffe/status/1058505518854094848

    He will gain in popularity after this and if he follows the above pattern, he'll do even better.
