Fine Gael TD sues Dublin Hotel after falling off swing

"I am a strong female politician and some people don't like that.....I won't be bullied by keyboard warriors".

Playing the sexism card and mother of two cards now, she's going all in.

"I will not be bullied by keyboard warriors"

Presenter: "Are you not in the least naive...?" :pac:

She's making an absolute fool of herself while trying to clarify her 'story'. Not even being able to answer if she had something in both hands using the excuse that it's up to the judge to decide that. Jesus, she either did or she didn't.

What Judge? Thought she'd dropped the case!

Imbecile.

She'd actually remind you of Gemma O'Doherty.

Exactly, but she won't say if the had an item in each hand saying that it would have been up to the judge to decide that and she won't do trial be media now. Bizarre.

Well she made an absolute fool of herself there and her trying to draw a line under it will only make matters worse IMO - especially the little tirade at the end

(just a note for any FG staffers that may be reading this)

Oh please no ...stop

it's up there with the p flynn interview on the late late

Hurrache · 27-05-2019 10:27AM

LOL, the panel on now after her interview are equally as awestruck over it.

FrancieBrady · 27-05-2019 10:29AM

Unbelievably arrogant performance there on Sean O'Rourke.

She is signing her political career death warrant.
I figured she was arrogant enough to double and triple down on it.

zell12 · 27-05-2019 10:29AM

Must fire her

Holy f**k. That was beyond a disgrace.

The Dean Hotel's owners and staff are being well compensated with all of this publicity anyway. There will be people all over that swing now if its still there!

listermint · 27-05-2019 10:30AM

Listened there and it was just a blame everyone but me.

She has some extreme levels of lack of self awareness.

Incredible

The mystery of what the other hand was doing continues...

With the other hand, she was trying to save a baby that someone had recklessly tossed into the air. Actually she's a hero... in her own head.

We need an independent judicial inquiry into the second hand. Only a judge can establish this.

lawred2 · 27-05-2019 10:31AM

A good solid line drawn in the sand there

They need to put a plaque on it.

'The swing that brought down a government'

That's when you know a snakey female politician has been utterly wrecked and completely boxed into a corner by their own hand, the 'strong female' defense comes out.

_Kaiser_ · 27-05-2019 10:33AM

She's gone I'd say. Regina on now admitting that it's came up at the doors and it's a pity Maria came on - errors in judgement

zell12 · 27-05-2019 10:33AM

Regina now making it worse, much much worse!

Matt Cooper survived. The hotel should sell souvenirs at it, "I survived the Dean swing".

"The media have crossed the line of humanity here."

Please, please, please let her go on the Late Late on Friday.

There was plenty of talk yesterday from FG that it was indeed an issue at the door alright.

FrancieBrady · 27-05-2019 10:34AM

Regina, the rottweiler has been sent out to blame it all on Maria.

FG throwing the PR blemish to the wolves...:rolleyes:

Hardtochoose · 27-05-2019 10:35AM

Wow, Regina Doherty a fellow FG TD saying it’s a pity Maria Bailey came on this morning and that she’s made an error of judgement and done herself a disservice. She’s finished

That's brilliant.

No surprises she's trending on Twitter now.

zell12 · 27-05-2019 10:36AM

Did she just admit there'll be a general election soon?
