    Eddie Hobbs for me. I was only in college during the height of boom but even then I remember thinking there was something off about talking to people in their 20's like they were dirt on television because they lived at home and basically shamed them into buying a house they couldn't afford.

    Basically recorded then broadcast the absolute worst aspect of the Celtic tiger and I wish he had been called out on it

    Bono.

    Bought a beautiful Georgian country mansion and turned it into a car park for his hatchback collection.

    Because the man is mentally ill!

    without doubt, no equal, LYING LEO!

    He claims again at the FG national conference earlier, that he would continue to reward workers! A worker on 34,000 or thereabouts the last few budgets, has received a E1.50 a week reduction in USC! That rate and his cronies and fellow td's etc, better not dare darken my door come election time!

    There is a E5 "derisory and insulting" (politicians words, not mine) increase for all of the welfare warriors though, over triple what a worker on 34,000 is getting!

    Joe Duffy.

    I know there's multiple politicians and cute-hoor business people that have done the country more damage in reality, but, fck me, Joe Duffy gets away with a lot.

    He's a bad radio presenter, frequently in the wrong on his show, rude, boorish, shameless. He'll milk any tragedy for radio tears and fake sentimentality. And, worst of all, despite his huge salary - and his roughly ten hour working week, is absent a truly incredible amount of times. He blatantly takes the piss with that. He's a joke!

    Boards mods are the worst shower of chancers you'll ever see :P

    Answer for Ireland's GREATEST Chancer though is clearly Bertie 'No Bank Account' Ahern

    The Healy-Raes.
    They are great for the local people who elected them. Sometimes I wished I lived in Kerry as least they care about the people who support them. ( only sometimes ).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,980 ✭✭✭Lucy8080
