    Mary Lou finally shut down about the banks. They have 2.1 billion profits. Mary Lou wants 12.5% of that instead of the 1.6 billion levey

    I'm a neutral at the moment but wish Micheal Martin was more bullish like Mary Lou or Leo. Seems like a nice fella but needs to toughen up and be able to shout when interrupted...

    Eamon Ryan should ditch the Tech glasses, he looks less confident with him

    Is the children's hospital really going to be the most expensive in the world?!?

    Not only will it be the most expensive hospital in the known universe, it may be one of the most expensive buildings ever.

    Hate to say it but Michael Martin is mopping up here, performing so much better than anyone else. Brendan Howlin doing very too, disappointed that Roisin Shortall seems to be hiding, while Mary Lou and Varadkar are having a 'mare. RBB doing well playing to the crowd.

    Shocking that is. We let the multinational corporations and banks away with murder.

    We dont really. Intel, for example, pay a fortune via commercial rates to kildare county council, income tax on all their workers etc. etc.

    Brendan Howling, a decent fella but not at the races here. Alan Kelly, like him or not, would dance rings around the other six.

    Leo made a mug of MLM there, she’s talking bollox about the banking corp tax

    Mary Lou talks (loudly) and forcefully in broad brush strokes, very thin on economic detail though, Leo, Michael, Roisin, Richard are all on a higher level of economic understanding.

    Gerry Adams pulled it off years ago.

    She offers nothing unique, just a puppet.
