Wallace and Daly

I don’t know what’s worse? Those gob****es or someone now knowing they’re MEPs not TDs.

Just remember.

The Irish people voted them into the Dàil and Europe.

Yet we like to shift all the blame onto the politicans.

Some day the penny will drop.

So what you are saying is that a lot of idiots voted for those idiots?

Correct.

Bit late in the day to be crying about it.

Daly in her feminist garb is see, right and proper.

Unlike Worzel Gummidge

Remember everyone, the cranks and no-goods get elected as EU Parlimentarians.

EU parliament makes the Dail seem like a bastion of good sense and civility. It makes Sinn Fein look like a party full of PhD graduates.

Is there anyway these two can be expelled from the dail?
It's one thing to be doing this sort of thing in normal times but during a pandemic. They are, as the article says an embarrassment to the country and with not a brain cell between them.
And what's even worse are the morons who voted them in.
Gob****es.

Absolutely astonishing and extremely disappointing that a woman like Daly who claims to be a feminist adopted the anti-woman black attire worn in Iraq. Incredible stuff from her.

Well said

Dumb ****s were censured in the EU parliament for claiming that Assad never used chemical weapons and that it's all a conspiracy by the whest.

****ing embarrassment.

I've never agreed with Daly's politics, but in general she seemed to be quite well respected across the political spectrum before she got herself involved with Wallace. She really seems to have gone off the deep end lately though
The silence from all of her cheerleaders on here is deafening though - could only imagine the hundreds of outraged posts we'd get if they weren't heroes of the looney left

I see these two heroic defenders of human rights seem to have lost their tongues when it comes to a Putin-allied dictator committing what amounts to hijacking a civilian aircraft in order to kidnap a journalist who dares criticise him.

Aren't we lucky to have such wonderful representation in the European Parliament.

I'm not a cheerleader, she was my local TD and I was polar opposite to her on politics. But she is genuine and hard working in what she does and even i can recognise that. It's more than most (or all) in Irish politics.

She did vote against vaccine passports in the EU one of the few that did.
redeemed her a bit in my eyes.

I know they voted against sanctions towards Belarus and China, while the SF MEPs abstained.

Do we know how Ming voted? Hard to find voting records.

Here's his voting record: https://www.votewatch.eu/en/term9-luke-ming-flanagan.html

You're not quite right about what you say, though.

Wallace and Daly voted against, and Ming abstained from, the recent vote regarding "Chinese countersanctions on EU entities and MEPs and MPs" on on the 20th of May. This was a vote to freeze a trade deal with China until they lifted sanctions on various EU politicians (which China did in retaliation to EU sanctions on China).

There was no vote on the actual sanctions on China and Belarus in the EU Parliament, as those sanctions were imposed by the European Council, not the EU Parliament.

Until she got involved with Wallace I'd have agreed with that.
Since then she seems to have abandoned all principles and has destroyed her credibility.

Can you imagine her staying silent on the Belarussian kidnapping of a journalist if it had happened 5/6 years ago? She used to work in aviation don't forget

And if it was another property developer who decided it wasn't worth his while paying back money he borrowed she would be screaming for his head but she has nothing to say at all about Wallace.

Wallace in Newstalk this morning signing the praises of the CCP.

He’s gone full conspiracy theory loon at this stage.

No detention of Uighur population apparently. No detention of journalists and no suppression of free speech there either

Managed to shoe-horn in some Putinist propaganda as well
