You and one or two others are working very hard to try get us to believe this is a non story and we should forget about it, and there's only a handful interested and many of them trolls.

Why? Why the interest? Seems like FF/FG supporters trying to deflect and defend, or why?

TD's are our employees. When they act in any interest other than ours they will receive criticism.

Well in Baciks case, I'd say it's more or less already "end game", think she'll find it quite difficult convincing the electorate in Dublin Bay South a second time that she's any different to the rest, she managed to hoodwink last time. She was only through the door a wet week before she showed she was no different to the others with their snouts in the trough site claimed to be different to.

As for the others, they'll also have to face the electorate within their own constituencies when the time comes, and explain to them why they thought, it ok to attend a private event, that as far as almost everyone, including Failte Ireland, and the drinks and hospitality industry was actually technically illegal at the time.

Only God (and voters from their own constituency) can judge them in the end.

I'm simply an onlooker who's enjoying the entertainment. (Need to check the list again, but I think all the politicians from my constituency are home and dry, saying they didn't attend)

TD's are entitled to a personal life like every other employee. You seem to think you should be able to know details about a person personal life. Maybe you should try living your own life and stop worrying about what a TD is doing in their personal life.

In regards to the comment about only a handful of trolls. I suggest you review twitter, the majority of people are telling people to cop on, not the other way around.

Let me get this straight, you're suggesting a political figure will publicly state they didn't attend something, if in fact that happened to be untrue, knowing the lie will undoubtedly be exposed eventually, and also that PAC are about to look into it?

This is more politically naive than yesterday when you thought Killian Foley-Walsh was just some "kid who admitted to supporting Fine Gael"

Why do you think anyone is in panic? if I was in Jacks area and he came out and said he went I wouldn't care. It is his personal life.

You don't seem to understand this, I have a problem with online trolls going after TD's, create strange spreadsheet and thinking they are entitled to know about any TD's personal life. I include all TD's in that. I have said the same about Ivana who has nothing to do with FF or FG.

As I pointed out already, the majority on people are telling these trolls to cop on and stop. Why would journalist go against the majority?

A journalist should be writing a story on the lack of action taken against these trolls.
