Katherine Zappone Envoy Gig

It's no wonder SF are poised to be the biggest party in the State. It's not that they've anything much to offer, but there is a sense they're not as detached from ordinary people. Varadkar going to a music festival in London while he won't allow the Irish entertainment sector to reopen, Coveney using tax payers money to create a job for a friend, FG needs to be cleared out at the top.

This controversy will be coming back at Coveney for the rest of his career, the sum of money isn't as important as the approach he took. He hasn't been contrite either really.

Now come on we all know it's "chilling" when a FG minister needs to answer questions. FG don't like being questioned or held to account and if they are then those holding them to account are all SF supporters or what ever else they can throw at them. FG and FF just don't get it.

Too stupid not to wait until we hear from Zappone one way or the other.

Typical amateurish short-sightedness.

Is that it, is that all this clown has to say for himself, this must be the first comment from a normally excitable Leo in day's, perhaps he's finished eating the Humble pie the entertainment industry sent him.

Almost a week of no comment or Defence of his hapless deputy leader, and the minute big bad Chilling SF, start the no confidence process and he's out of the Traps, he's a complete Tool ( Hope my assessment not seen as Homophopic 🧐)

Coveney created a job for someone he knew and was going to use the public purse to pay her, it's absolutely a resigning/firing offence. The motion of no confidence is not frivolous at all.

It's a disaster for both parties and shows how weak the Government is. He needs to resign or be fired, if he resigned and was contrite there'd be a chance of rehabilitation in the future, but he has done serious damage to both the government and FG now.

One way or the other...

Maybe read posts a little more carefully before lashing out the insults.

Might I suggest running your index finger underneath the words as you go along?

Brenda Power (I think ) made an interesting comment earlier, she found it very curious that Zappone with all her FG friends could easily confirm part of Coveneys side of this story,perhaps admit she jumped the gun a little etc, it of course wouldn't excuse all the other Shenanigans, deleted texts etc etc, but it is very, very curious she's not thrown even a gentle life line to Coveney, one has to wonder why 🧐🧐🧐

I've no doubt abject embarrassment is the main cause of her silence but perhaps there's more to her silence

Why does it need to survive?

Too funny, Blueshirts, knickers in a twist 🤣😆🤭🤭👍

Me too, they won't take kindly to being bullied by a fluffy lamb. If any of those FF TD'S that have had the courage to speak out fail to vote no confidence, they are politically dead in the water .

Paschal hiding as well,
