How could you think such a thing 😁
But more telling was it was clearly a staged photo op, he was touring the constituency, other photos of engagements on the day, including Jamee's Connolly hospital. He's wearing the same suit, if he was working diligently at his constituency office, you'd think he'd have the jacket off, shirt sleeves rolled up and actually talking to a constituent, instead of staring into an empty space 😉
LOL, would you believe I know it well 😂 I worked and lived in Baltimore, Maryland for 4 years and visted Dundalk, Maryland 😉
Piles of paper next to a computer. Is he letting us know the Civil service still run primarily on paper I thought he would have a paperless office. Not great for the Environment that. And before ppl eeeeep, He can keep pdf's on his phone or tablet.
Is there an election on the way, because that's a very electioneering style photo op in my opinion.
It's not cheap either in the other
Dundalk.
You'd have to ask the folk who voted for him.
The replies are gas, seems even Leo realises he needs to spend some time in his constituency office 😉
That he wouldn't have the cop on to know that those really struggling would find his comments offensive is the maddening thing.
'Smart fella but no common sense' was a saying of my mother's. Applies here.
I hope this is satire.
Is that why he got elected?
I agree. Poor on FF for this, and their solution is to tax workers more for it.
Not a fan, but then again no one in opposition will call it out, in fact they want to bring the pension age down further.
Whatever about is ability to sleep or otherwise, hard to fathom why he's allowed to speak to the international press, they must have either been in utter disbelief or in fits of giggles 😉
In fairness you have to make allowances for a man for whom narcolepsy is a constant battle...
Seems Simon Harris"s speeches are not just ignored closer to home but intriguing to see him jockeying for the top job, Helen gets a mention as to does Leo.
I often wonder must FG members occasionally consider .....
Is this really the best we can hope for in terms of a future leader's 🤔
Words escape me 🙄
You are deluded if you think the problem is people wanting extravagant things. We have working people who need government help to pay rent. Your comment is not relevant to mine.
What was that about being able to afford a home on an average income 🙄
I thought there were laws in relation to opposite sex siblings sharing rooms.
There was a saying that one cut ones cloth according to one’s width. That is, live within one’s means. If one cannot afford to live where one works, then something is wrong. Review and move on. A house isn’t a given. It’s a reward for sensible decisions. You need ask yourself if you really need x amount of bedrooms (forget the WOKE housing people) You do NOT need a bedroom for each child. There’s nothing wrong with sharing. It builds character.
Gifted to them? Or, are they in a home owned by the state, asset retained by the state, and the people in it are contributing via some form of payment?
There's an estate less than 5km from where I live that I believe is 100% social. But (also what I believe) there's a strict criteria in place to qualify to getting one. Namely at least one of the people living there must be working. Apparently (and I'd agree somewhat) prevents the estate descending into a "ghetto".
Regardless, the state at least owns the homes on the estate, which are considered "assets".
Beats throwing money into a black hole of subsidising private landlords, vulture fund/investment firms or hoteliers.
My sister and brother in law paid 600k for a house. On the same estate there are unemployed people getting social housing in a worker shortage.
Goes to show FG are far right.
He probably has a trampoline in the back garden and lives up the road from his mammy.
Another fuckwit FG'er with no concept of reality outside his front door.
Has FG hq made him retract the statement yet ☺️
That's for themselves..
I don’t like her at all. I find her extremely self serving and ego centric. Never heard her talk about anything innovative to help the middle ground that use be FG support. Another A N another woke FG candidate, SD lite really.
He should "Shop Around" and drive 20kmh slower
Not a SF supporter but. Is this person gonna get ripped to shreds too over money management. 😁
The poor fella, perhaps we should start a gofundme for him
Pretty sure I've heard in the dáil at least 6 times or more this year that there was no magic money tree. Maybe 38 times when debating with SF as they keep saying to them where is the money going to come from. and quoting the "SF MAGIC MONEY TREE"
Just the other week FF or FG said there's no money tree for some ****, then the next day had money for everything and everyone. yet people still lap that **** up.
Cue he should buy a gaff in Navan 😂
