No1 dude.

Not that I in anyway support their policies.

But these tools have crucified me for too long.

Incompetent bunch of cretins.

Lessons need to be taught, Clear the lot of them out and let’s see what shakes up.

Incredible incompetence and total fchukkery

Hogan should be persona non grata. Any board that hires him is showing that the likely lads will always get looked after no matter what. Besides its not like Hogan needs the money.

Do you suggest we boycott any business he sits on?

skimpydoo wrote: »

I know I would.

Do you think it is fair to try to prevent somebody from getting a new job because you don't like them?

skimpydoo wrote: »

Do you think he deserves these kinds of jobs? I don't and I am sure others will agree with me.

I mean, I don't think it is any of our business what jobs he gets, unless they are public jobs, then as taxpayers we can be pissed but a private individual working for a business. Who am I to say what he deserves, can he do the job? If they hire him it's their choice.

And no, I'm not equating what Hogan has done with either of them two, I'm just pointing out that no matter how talented you are in whatever area of the private world, if there is a stigma attached to your reputation, you might find it hard to get work.

The way I see things - FG haven't expelled him yet despite Leo's bravado, and with all the support he's been receiving from (what appear to be) FG supporters, so they should give him a chance to contest an election here somewhere and maybe aim for TD or ministerial positions again..

He could join Sinn Fein!
They would have gotten him off.

SF again? It's beginning to become a bit of a recurring theme from you Bishop, stock response kind of thing?

I think you're just bring purposely naive here though, tell me, do you think big Philos political outlook on life would be compatible with Sinn Feins? And if not what's the point in even mentioning them?

Phil fell on his sword it would seem, I wonder who's next?

I'm sure there's pun writers lining up witty retorts now in the anticipation that the greens will be calling on the wolf to go.

Not one bit more than mentioning Gary Glitter and OJ Simpson.
So far as I know they were never involved in Irish politics, nor is big Phil accused with any type of crime that either was involved in.

There's a few in SF were allegedly involved in killing women, so maybe the comparison with OJ sits in there.
After that it seems to have you rattled everytime SF is mentioned, take a chill pill, it was just sarcasm, maybe poor sarcasm, but your goat got out over it.

Isn't the appointment of the new commissioner in the gift of Michael Martin?

Why are most of the replacements being mention FG.

Surely FF are not gonna allow that huge signal of who is wearing the trousers in the coalition?

So you are not equating but you are comparing, otherwise why mention their names? They were criminals he is not, is a good starting point. Most businesses would not hire someone with a serious criminal record but again it's none of our business what a private company might do for hiring. In terms of competency, you might be actually giving phil an over exuberant compliment, comparing him to OJ Simpson but maybe, I have no idea if he was good or bad at his job.

I think it's unlikely he would continue in politics, there isn't much left for him to do beyond taoiseach/tanaiste and that is unrealistic. Not every view point you hear has to be motivated by political affiliation - your comment regarding his support. I'm not sure why you even mention it. In fact I would support anyone from any party who is a private citizen without any criminal past to get a job of their choice, I think to do otherwise would be discrimination, I believe all people have a right to work.
