    Fair City looks daft tonight. They filmed for their paddy’s day night a couple weeks ago I guess and they are all in the pub drinking. Scriptwriters should be sacked.

    Enough people have lost their jobs this week, without you calling for more :)

    Its a soap, not a documentary

    They allowed 5000 people from one of the most infected parts of the planet in for a piss up. They didn’t stop flights from infected regions. They lied in many interviews saying the prospects of the virus spreading in Ireland was low.

    There are endless examples of how they messed this up from the start. Don’t give them credit for doing small parts of their jobs right.

    Not a fan of them but one of their main jobs is to maintain law and order. The last thing we want to see is disintegrating society, mass panic and robberies as we have seen during the snow. Sometimes it is best to dose bad news.

    Does shutdown mean non essential work stops?

    I'd be surprised if Leo ordered a full shutdown tonight.

    Given they signed off on emergency powers this morning to go through the Dail in the coming days I'd suspect he might update people on that. Such as the power to detain people who refuse to isolate and the gardai getting powers to shutdown mass gatherings

    There will be no shutdown. Our figures aren't nearly high enough. Lockdown is a method to close the valve for a week or so before opening again to infect some more people. This will happen in cycles over the weeks ahead.

    Can see why we are been told only what we need to.

    Jesus people go into hysterics because the Taoiseach is adressing the country on Paddy's day.

    Well I'd hope most people know that $&¦t is not really?!

    ...... And not suddenly think the pubs are back open again tonight....

    Maybe that's why Leo is on at 9.00 to make sure we are not fooled by the flawless acting....
