    If Tony hadn't F*cked up with the nursing homes then we wouldn't be in such a state of panic and Paranoia now.

    Both Anders Tengell in Sweden and Emmanuel Macron In France have admitted to and apologised for oversight which lead to excessive deaths in Nursing homes. Haven't hearad anything from our overlords.

    Ah don't blame Tony, how could he have known. It wasn't as if elderly people were falling victim in large numbers elsewhere in Europe that we were aware of.....sssh don't mention Italy.

    Multiple needles on the ground following a concert by the most middle aged, middle of the road rock bands in existence and where tickets were what €90+ for the cheap seats? Walter Mitty hasn't a patch on you lad.

    I'm not making it up lads...why would I make up something like that, I go to plenty of gigs, festivals etc and I've never seen anything like it. That was the one and only time I've seen that happen. Maybe there was something else in them but I can't think what else comes in needles besides some types of smoke but there's no way they were doing that either.

    U2 in '05 probably had more diabetics than junkies in the audience.

    Be honest now. It was you were on the skag. There weren't any young people there at all. Where there?

    U2 fans are the biggest bunch of aul wans. There's no chance there was any heroin at a u2 gig. Ever.

    The truth will hopefully eventually come out, unfortunately too late for all the lives he has destroyed (both the dead and those destroyed by the restrictions as a result).

    A simple acknowledgment from NPHET when asked instead of saying 'no-one is to blame' would have sufficed but they couldn't even admit their mistakes.

    Well Bono's head was firmly up his own ass by that timeframe so maybe drugs were required to get through his monologues. Good music though.

    A load of people in Croke Park were shooting up while watching a gig?

    I know?? Makes zero sense.

    Doesn't matter no one will be held responsible. Holohan is a hero in the eyes of many with very short memories.

    What were the statistics for locking down Kildare etc? Cases per 100,000?

    It was a lot, not just one or two, it was a few meters from where we were standing during the gig. Maybe it was something else in them or someone dropped a box. It hasn't crossed my mind in 15yrs until that picture of all the nox on the ground.

    What about the residents that Holohan sent back to the homes Covid Positive (without test) from Hospital in order to clear beds for the younger population?


    The HSE did this, but not necessarily Holohan.

    He recommended it as part of NPHET, certainly did nothing to stop it.

    Holohan was the CMO he also advised the Nursing homes not to restrict visitors.

    And it's been proven visitors didn't spread covid into nursing homes.
    No matter how many times you suggest it, it's just untrue.
    NPHET did actually advise nursing homes to restrict visitors.
    weeks before they had cases in nursing homes.
