    Does not seem to be interrupting the men. Us she being sexist, or is there an agenda?

    Well her brother is a FF TD so whether she has an agenda or not, the perception is there.

    She just rambled on there for 2-3 mins. She is getting as much time to talk as the other two.

    Jesus Christ. MLM is being deliberately interrupted before she's barely begun!


    Maybe if she answered the question being asked instead of going off on tangents, she might not get interrupted and called to task.

    Taking bets....

    The next time Mary Lou speaks, Miriam will interrupt again.

    Or one of the others.

    1/5 Miriam
    1/4 Leo
    1/3 Michael

    Her brother is in FF.shouldn't be anywhere near this debate.

    They're all being interrupted when dodging or rambling away from the point.

    Actually agree with MM on reducing levies and his point on FG hoping that the free market would sort out the housing crisis. Shame he's about as credible as the monorail guy from the Simpsons.

    A shortage of workers, simply bring in 5000 builders from Turkey on special visas to assist in the shortage.

    Never heard that particular phrase before tbh, not sure about it...the jury is out on that one so to speak

    Jury? Or Special Criminal Court? :D

    I think MM and LV look small and silly bullying SF/MLM. Bully boys picking on the woman. I still don’t trust FF, and they were propping up FG for the last 4 years - why not have MLM put manners on them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,589 ✭✭✭Stacksofwacks


    I think MM and Miriam had something go on in the past, note the glinted eyes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 4,430 ✭✭✭mojesius


    Meehole was innovative once he says.

    Doing Byrne Round 2 would have been a much better idea; its not the same debate as before due to the tighter lineup

    #rtebias was trending on twitter
    They are doing more to get MLM elected than SF themselves

    They should have had one of the debates where each leader had a 5 foot wall to build before the show was over.

    For apartments you have buyers competing with housing corporations paying little or no tax in the country.

    A few of them do it, it's definitely taught somewhere, but Leo seems to do it more, and exaggerate it.

    Rubbish!

    She is there to call out the bs.
    I counted 4 interruptions on Varadkar.

    MLM is hitting the vote catching phrases for sure.

    The Martin McGuinness moment with Miriam a few years ago a part of that ?
