    I think it hilarious, if the department of education ever wanted to see how bad Ireland has got they could have a read over this rubbish

    Also the affect of social media on some people, they will actually believe any sort of s**t posted on the internet

    I’m sure a lot of them here would argue the earth is flat if the government put out a release saying it wasn’t.


    The content of this thread proves it .

    They would,Red, and argue it for eight to nine pages long.

    You see, these lads are quite content to think that they can horse out rubbish and think that others will not come back on their own preferred party’s murky despicable record.

    They profess to be ‘appalled” at the golf dinner episode but defend the black and white ‘event’ up in Belfast.

    Now they will be on saying they never voted for the Shinners.

    I wouldn’t waste too much time expecting anything else Red.

    The government appointed Garda Commissioner has nothing to do with a government thread:confused:

    The current Garda commissioner. As tension ratchets up with the UK there's no way this man can be trusted.

    The thought of Bendar being a mentor for Redgirl amuses me greatly. There is no limit to how agitated they both will get :)

    Bring back SheffieldWed and the meltdown will be complete!

    A chara :D

    Nobody responded the first you posted this so you posted it again :-)

    Why would anyone need a mentor on a forum?

    Always cool and collected Tree.

    No danger of the Brenner getting ‘agitated’ always in control.

    Far be it from me to ‘mentor’ Redgirl.

    Well able to look after herself I can see, just making sure she doesn’t waste her valuable time on the spurious stuff pumped out by ‘team’ here.

    Tactic 1 is always pump out enough ‘chaff’ to try to confuse those with opposite views.

    Why do I constantly need to teach you the same lesson?

    Read my post from weeks ago: https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=114376141&postcount=6640

    Read it. Try and let it sink in.

    Redgirl says she votes for the coalition of chaos because they are the best of bad lot. That in my opinion is a sad and weak argument. It will only keep the status quo in place. I voted for a Social Democrat and a very capable Independent at the last election. I voted FG for 20 years - that will never happen again.

    It would be easier for me to have kept on my FG blinkers and looked the other way when they gorged at the trough and abused their positions. The lifelong family-made blinkers seem to work for Bendar, Blanch etc but they stopped fitting me. I hope new parties emerge when FFG decline even further. I hope FF cease to exist.

    New Politics anyone?

    No new politics.
    Just new people gorging at the trough.
    They're all getting well paid, but opposition is the easiest trough of all really.
    Nothing to do but oppose, put a message out of what you'll do while still doing nothing and get reelected.
    Thats the real gorging at the trough I think.

    Tree, That’s your opinion and you are entitled to it.

    I happen to think, work, and act differently.

    Hope that’s ok with you.

    Roaring about ‘breaking the State’ and ‘Up the Ra ‘ and dressing up like a bunch of magpies at an organised event in Belfast certainly wouldn’t really change my political outlook anytime soon.

    Wafty idealisms and ‘noble aspirations’ don’t figure high on my list, a chara.

    Got it in one, M’lud.

    Got a flyer from some dude recently outlining all the things he had ‘called for’

    If it wasn’t shiny paper I’d have taken it to the thunder box.

    Fair play to the teachers. I reckon health care workers could be next.

    Must've been why Leo relishing going in there in a huff when the electorate handed him and his party their collective hole last election bish?

    Someone must have had a word with him though, and somehow convinced him that the rag tag cobbled together unholy alliance with ff would be a better option than going off in his petulant teenage huff.

    That's going well isn't it? :D

    Luckily most people don’t have that point of view.

    Great to see someone standing up for the safety of students and staff. Where'd you get your most people claim Brendy?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 544 ✭✭✭Hawthorn Tree


    Aragh the teachers have become the most entitled public servants of them all. Impossible to keep happy. Schools will close in October anyway.

    Ya god damn them for looking for contact tracing, testing and quick turnaround on results.
    Meanwhile the dail is still in the convention center.

    Heh heh you amaze me, dude.

    Anyone with a lick of sense would understand that the thought of schools shutting down again, would sink the country into the greatest depression since the total lockdown.

    You obviously don’t give two hoots,based on your post, and it would appear all you want is total breakdown and anarchy.

    Sure there are some issues which need to be sorted, and they will, but exulting in the hope that they will bring the education system to chaos with a full on strike is strange.

    Querying where I got the ‘most people ‘ claim shows just how way out of touch you and your fellow travelers are.

    The ASTi I would suggest are wise enough to realise this and this is just a period of Sabre rattling.

    Only idiots like that sweaty tosser down in the South East would exult in chaos for our country.

    You are surely not in that mob, mr S. ?

    We can look out and verify if it is raining chum.

    We cannot verify various claims you and others make when you won't back them up with data...they remain flimsy nebulous things flaoting around in the air - like misty rain on the bog.

    He heh.... can I take it so that you disagree with my assessment that a closing of the schools would not, as I suggested, create the greatest depression since the lockdown, for our people?

    But as you say it’s just “flimsy nebulous things floating in the air- like misty rain on the bog”

    Re-enforces my belief the real reasons why your fellow travelers are in opposition and will stay there till you can understand the mood of the people.

    I’m afraid Francie, you need a lot of links and back ups to justify that point of view.


    But go ahead anyway........ you know you want to:D

    I think you exaggerate greatly Brendi.

    I will continue to think that until you produce some back-up. for you claims..but I fear said bog will have turned to the hardest of sedimentary rock before that event happens.

    Francie, a chara, if you think the closure of schools by the ASTI wouldn’t produce the biggest depression since the lock down and actually have to ask for back up for that........


    Frankly the mind boggles and really shows up your lack of appreciation of our State.

    But hey... there’s Cullinane down in the SE.....so no surprise there.

    Carry on:D

    What claims Francie? Please quote me?

    Or there more of you making silly assumption?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,225 ✭✭✭Redgirl82


    It isn't basic manners except in your head. People do it all the time on this site n an effort to keep the topic focused.

    I am not 'running to the mods' either, I am telling you that if you have an issue with what I am doing that you have the option of going to the mods because I am going to continue using the site as I always have.

    So you don’t understand basic manners even when someone points it out to you multiple times?

    If you are not running to the mods why have you twice made reference to them?

    You referred to relatives of victims of the Glennane gang as crackpots and doubled down on it. You trying to lecture people on manners would be like John Delayney giving a talk on corporate governance.
