So what do you think should be done with the homeless?

Nice to see that Eoin O'Broin is as deluded as ever. Seems to adhere to the idea that if you keep saying the same thing, then it'll come true for you.

Sarah Carey has a problem with people lying, and nobody challenges on her own lying to the Tribunal. Sean, can you please ask Sarah Carey when she changed her position on whether lying is acceptable or not.

I don't like O'Broin or his party, but he is a good speaker.

That woman in the tech gadget item had no manners whatsoever, she kept pointing out flaws and features in whatever the other guy was reviewing as he spoke.

A real little Miss. Know-it-all.

If theres one thing the PoGormans pieces from the courts show us ,its the complete inaction being taken by the judges.

I was struck by the comment, “got six months, served three weeks”. Now, I’ve heard about a discount on the tariff, but I didn’t realise it was that much.

Have you heard about overcrowding in prisons?

That, I suspect, may be the reason for such a heavy discount.

Next it will be a 'Bonus 3 weeks somewhere of their choice "

Then it seems to me that the whole exercise becomes pretty pointless.

But we cannot build more new prisons...that would be a backward, regressive step apparently!

I don’t think that building more prisons is the answer. By the time anyone goes to prison for a relatively minor offence, or more likely the fifteenth relatively minor offence, they will have “gone through the system” of cautions, fines (which they can’t/won’t pay) probation, community service, etc. The prison sentence is the inevitable outcome of this train ride through the criminal justice system.

Clearly, I think I understand the problem - I just don’t know what the solution is. It wasn’t the “short, sharp shock”, tried in the UK in Maggie Thatcher’s time; this descended into abuse and neglect on an industrial scale.

Answers on a postcard, please, to Charlie Flanagan...

jay0109 · 19-12-2019 05:44PM

Some people are just bad. They won't change. Locking them to protect society is necessary.

Build even just the one new prison Charley.

Just listen to any of O'Gormans reports to see the huge waste of time and money in our" justice" system.

Full of pond life.....and crap with the legal dudes making shedloads of dosh.

Which is why they will never call time on this shocking waste of time and money !

One particular knut today,"it was only a bit of stealing, took a bike ,but it wasnt me " . As someone said earlier,take their dole,that'll fix a lot of the problems.

He took the bike but he didn 't steal it. That made everything OK

In fairness to Paddy he has to be non judgemental ...otherwise nobody would talk to him.

I get your point though....and I share your view re the pond life that usually gob on air !

The O'Gorman segment is worth it thouh...for the light it shines on this murky dysfunctional area.

Think of the amount of Garda time that is taken up with this type of crap.

Janey, i take a whole opposite view of Paddy's reports. He lets the interviewee expose themselves as feckless, reckless wasters that are in no fear of the limp judicial system.

Occasionally Paddy gives a half hearted "let's hope they can sort themselves out".
But in no way do i ever get the impression Paddy is tugging on heart strings and giving the ol' saw of "There but for the grace of god" guff.

He certainly stands back and doesn't judge or condemn. He doesn't need to. The content is enough.

Great radio imo.
