    I would try to govern without dithering and chaos.

    Clear and concise messages and policy.
    Do not say things like 'we are following expert advice' when you are not, you are making political decisions based on who has the loudest voice.

    Would having to check with the AC not add an extra layer of ‘management’ to your governance?

    Look at up North where poor Bobby’s ‘funeral’ was pure chaos, and a coach and four driven through the regs.


    Would’nt promulgate too much confidence, a chara.

    Such dishonest lunacy.....1/2 meat factory workers were found to aspomathic,


    Its obvious enough,its been picked up on holidays back to eastern europe,and likes of goodman and quelly group not paying extra holidays or for quarantine period upon return leading to lads having to work


    We should bring in 2 week paid off for quarantine for all forgien workers on top of their holidays,factories are glad to gouge on wages/terms make them pay for this mess

    Ha ha ha the auld ‘go to ‘ mantra of the ‘bullhorn brigade’. Let the ‘rich’ pay.

    The auld magic money tree is fairly droopy looking now.

    :confused:

    Think if they brought a letter saying they'd been tested a few days before coming back they didn't have to quarantine, even though the most likely source of infection would be the airport (s) and plane (s) returning to Ireland.

    2 weeks paid quarentine for all foreign workers?
    Why stop there, why not 2 weeks paid for all workers who go on foreign holidays?
    That's a ridiculous suggestion.
    Not all or even close to all foreign workers work in meat factories or even factories.

    Being a fool in a selfie or preening yourself in a shoe shop etc are not offences yet afaik.

    Again I think you are just trying to get post count up. You posted the same thing hours ago. I have the same answer by the way



    The message was clear and concise. They told everyone exactly what the new guidelines are on live broadcast, then went onto primetime. Released on facebook and done a number of radio interview. What exactly is not clear to you?

    Ahh yes it was "da foreigner"


    Can't beat a little bit of Irish racism.


    Sure we would be grand if it wasn't for "da foreigner"


    Let not forget the original outbreak was brought to Ireland by........"da Irish" who had to go on holidays to Italy even after been told not to.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,752 ✭✭✭✭Shefwedfan


    Mate....meat prices are through the roof this year?

    Up by near on 20% at farm gate in some cases.....everyone is making good money in that sector this year,

    if they want to pack their plants with eastern europeans,let them pay for quarantine after they return to visit families.....no point in letting society breakdown to line billionaires pockets imo


    Meat price up....milk is white gold. We may all quit our job and become farmers

    Exactly the same thing as is not clear to the largest sporting organistion in the country - the reasoning and rationale.

    Just as stupid and equally brain-dead contribution since Leo's "white middle class male" brainfart.

    The GAA need money, the main source of revenue is shut down. The government just shut down all sports. Of course they are going against it


    This actually proves your "lobby" as the rubbish it it, do you not think the GAA would be one of the first to get their way?

    Maybe, just maybe you could actually discuss the topic instead of ranting and ravign and throwing insults around like a 5 year old.

    The GAA is about more than money. Tremendous effort has gone into getting compliant.

    Not aware of the GAA being heavyweight lobbyists.
    Doesn't explain the rationale though when set against other allowed gatherings

    I'm simply pointing out silly posts - that's not ranting and raving.

    You are trying to pull the racist card out because people have suggested eastern European meatplant workers returning from their home countries should be allowed to quarantine at the meat processing plants cost. (It's racist to suggest they're given a privilege now, what :confused:)

    That's no more racist than to suggest that it's mandatory for Paddy Moloney from Carlow to self quarantine after coming back from Santa Ponsa or another country not on the green list.

    Please, put a little bit of thought into your posts before submitting them, it's not too much to ask.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,874 ✭✭✭Edgware


    Nothing racist there kid....no point in burying head in ground and pretending its those from D4 and kids of ffg members getting this in meat factories lines....but sure scream racism to shut down debate


    (Actually didnt you pedel.the line they were putting ice in mouth etc to cheat the temp checks?)




    Did anyone say otherwise??

    I thought it was the "horsey" crowd coming from Cheltenham Joe


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy


    For clarity sake,i do also believe the same should be offered to brazillian meat factory employees (and any other country!)

    In case more people pile in screaming racist :rolleyes:

    I think that was pretty clear for everyone , bar the hard of understanding, or the faux outrage brigade.

    Foreign workers who may be getting exploited by the meat processing plants should be allowed to self quarantine, on full pay if they're returning to Ireland from their home countries, assuming those countries aren't on the green list = "racist"

    You couldn't make this shyt up, you really couldn't. :D

    Haha this is the same slur used to try and distract from the criticism of Keelings. Some hope of this one working for the spin unit.

    How can those giving out about the meat factories employees be racist if those are the same people asking for direct provision to be shut down?, How does the spin unit square that one?

    If you read the original post. According to the poster the only reason we have this outbreak was due to "da foreigner". Back tracking now on it is just more desperation from a racist

    So let me get this straight, you can be racist to people because they have asked for something?



    Wow that is some statement to come out with.

    You should read your post
    (Actually didnt you pedel.the line they were putting ice in mouth etc to cheat the temp checks?)


    Again showing your racism. I said factory workers. Only you have come to the assumption that made a reference to "da foreigner".


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,752 ✭✭✭✭Shefwedfan




    What are you confused about Francie? or you just going to spend the night copying and pasting random tweets as some sort of proof?

    What am I denying?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,752 ✭✭✭✭Shefwedfan


    I did....you cant just scream racist at anyone who mentions forgiener....makes you seem insane






    Nowhere did i mention forgiener there??


    This is kind of like,when you got confused and taught LA was los angeles in a conversation about local autority housing....perhaps you should contemplate reading peoples posts,beforw flying off the handle insinuating x,y and z?


    Not confused at all.

    P.S. Wasn't on the LA either but you were in such a rush to reply you didn't even read the posts.....even after explaining you didn't understand

    That there is confusion and a lack of rational thinking emanating from government.

    I have produced links that show I am by far not the only one has noticed it.

    All you have done so far is try to censor me from producing those links. Sooner or later you need to defend the government with something other than invective and deflection or if you cannot do that...say nothing at all.
