    He also states Dublin is not at level 2.5 or a bit but its not the same as a normal level 2.

    So not at 2.5 but not at 2 either. Does that mean it is at 2.25 and Dublin is a little bit pregnant but not actually pregnant? And if it goes up to 2.75 does that mean the pubs can leave their doors a quarter open?

    Yet another shambles from FFG, they cant even get a simple 1 to 5 ranking system correct.

    The government/shambles were getting abuse for being unclear, so they went ahead and hired a PR firm to help with messaging.

    They announce a clear cut 5-level covid action plan, only to say Dublin will be on level 2.5, which it turns out by the Health Minister doesn’t exist.

    They have just completely lost the public. Not all on FF either, the 3 parties all signed off on this.

    I cannot comprehend how they went ahead with the press conference when they clearly couldn't verbalise the message and the document was still a work-in-progress?
    What other organisation would do that? Why not delay and do the press conference at a later time or day.
    Our political system is reaching new lows with this government. We are only on Day 80 and there is enough material for 5 Scannal programs!!

    All details here, though I’m sure that there’ll be the usual nitpicking. https://www.irishexaminer.com/news/arid-40049111.html

    Seems it's FF/FG...(Greens still up?) doing all the nitpicking :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Brendan Bendar


    Heh heh.... the full team out tonight, the usual suspects who cannot understand simple instructions.

    If they want directions to the dole office, there would be no problems.

    Lads....word in your ears, you seem to be slow learners... but hey ... nothing new there.


    Seems to be a lot of thick people around this burg.

    But maybe that is an acquired affliction.

    A 2+ for that effort Brendi.

    :D You should head over to the covid thread. Priceless.

    Dublin pubs are at Level 2 but with a sprinkling of Level 5!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 544 ✭✭✭Hawthorn Tree


    It looks like Donnelly has put the whole cabinet at risk by not isolating when he had Covid19 symptoms.

    I don't think a government had ever made me laugh so much.

    What do you not understand F.

    Or should I say what do you decide you don’t understand.

    It’s perfectly clear dude, if you really want to understand it:cool:

    You lads who seem extremely sharp on some stuff, suddenly seem to be thick and dense on other issues.

    You don’t fool Middle Ireland horse.

    Every radio phone in the country is laughing at this plan.

    They promised we would have a full 6 month plan. They havnt even a plan for Dublin confirmed depending on what they hear Thursday. They havnt spoken about Christmas (bang in the middle of the 6 months) They state there will be no tweeks in the phases while they are already tweeking it from day 1 😂

    Especially as it's the health minister.

    More to the point, another FF minister. They'll be really scraping the barrel to replace him

    Not up to me to understand it Brendi...but are you tuned into the world at all? All day long since the presser journo's, health experts,business people and other commentators are commenting on the utter confusion this has caused.

    Boards.ie is not the world Brendi...get out there, stay informed!

    Sure they are, sure they are, the same tools who do not comply with instructions carry on ignoring the sensible advice and then blame the Government for their non compliance.

    Would you ever cop yourself on .

    Grunts ignoring advice...... what do you expect buddy!!!


    You couldn’t make this up.

    Heh heh... word in your ear Francie.... I’ll ......spread it out in big letters.




    Vested interests


    Perfectly clear to me,a chara.

    You see Francie, if you WANT to understand it’s easy.

    Come into the world, a chara, open your mind .....for a change:P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,012 ✭✭✭✭James Brown


    I wish them all well.

    There comes a time when people have to take personal responsibility....i've read on here.

    Self isolation. Out on the links I'd imagine.

    Yours would be a 'vested dis-interest' so. A string vested interest as we can see right through what you are trying to do - Handwave away something that people of all political hues and persuasions and none have been commenting on all afternoon.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 544 ✭✭✭Hawthorn Tree


    218 cases in Dublin today and they put it at Level 2.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,424 ✭✭✭Floppybits

    I bet Harris is suiting up as we speak.

    Heh heh...clutching at straws Francie..... I say again ... clutching at straws.

    I’ll tell you where I stand Francie, whatever defeats this pandemic!

    You and your fellow travelers seem to take the view that people are expendable to get a cut at the Government and offer no solutions yourselves.

    Francie, please don’t take people for granted, we have you sussed.

    We know the agenda, legitimate perhaps, but it doesn’t fool anybody.

    Just take note of that.....per favor.

    It's not really clear now Brendi tbh; what are you ranting on about?

    Surely you have to concede that today has been a shambles from start to finish and the news that the MoH has not self-isolated is just the cherry on top?
