So break the law?? Try driving without winter tyres in Germany in winter or without a breakdown triangle in parts of Europe. I use an MPOW Bluetooth earpiece. €30 on Amazon.

He surely endeavours to obey the law in of each of the MS or is he a pure thug altogether?

The poster said consequences, plural. Causing a crash, stopped by AGS maybe before you state what you think the poster was saying would it not have been better to ask them to clarify what these consequences they fear are?
High horse indeed.

Sean Quinn? Is there anyone who can't be implicated in this?

She needs to go. She's really undermined the advocacy. Third age will suffer as a result.

Just about to post that.

He annoys me the most in this. All those types he was snoring at the politicians and he is just as bad as any of them.

I did a bit of digging about the people who were at the dinner.

Table 1

Had Lisa Chambers vote for him in the Dáil, was Junior Finance Minister for part of the crash and tried to blame it on everyone else, looks like Iago from Othello

F'd up Irish Water, Mercosaur deal, earns about €340k per year before expenses, been dining out on taxpayer money since a decade ago (I especially like the last article, he's down the bottom)

Noel and Bernadette Dempsey, former Minister turned consultant, wife is secretary

Left politics because he made awful decisions that shafted everyone and felt terrible. Now he gives advice about how to make awful decisions that shaft everyone and keeps his wife on the books.

It's just a laundry list of terrible, awful, corrupt, rich, reprehensible pricks.

The real stand out there is the 100k Sean Quinn paid for a wedding cake... Well, of course he didn't pay for it, one of his companies did.

Wouldn't be one for defending the government and this type of carry-on but, Jesus if you were to get an invite to something like that, you'd assume that the organisers had done everything they needed to do to ensure it complied with the restrictions.

I called a taxi last year in Greece and asked specifically for a child booster seat at the rear for one of my kids who was 4 at the time.

Taxi arrived next morning, and I assumed with booster seat, but when we checked the taxi firm didn't send it in the taxi.

You know what I did? I refused to take the taxi, and waited for an hour or so for the replacement, with aforementioned booster seat.

Their excuses doesn't cut it.

The new restrictions had already been announced.

It was obvious that there was more than that at the dinner which means it obvious that the organisers were not complying.

There is no excuse, they just wanted to because they think they can

It was not hard for Enda Kenny to see the event was wrong. He left.

I've been done a few times over the years (yeah I'm an idiot, no excuse) for holding my phone to my ear when driving, never once did I get a caution, fine each and every time.

I am hearing that there was in fact a pre-dinner or pre-golf drinks in the Abbeyglen hotel as well. They are keeping very quiet about it.

I also heard that Hogan did not stay in the Station House hotel where the dinner was. It was below his standards.
