I read your post . I explained the difference between why RT should not be accepting money that he knew was not what he was due and knew was not was being declared as his salary, and simultaneously putting forward a certain image .

Fitzer is really annoying Tubridy. Very funny.

Noel keeps saying €350m organisation like he's trying to dwarf €150k.

Been away from radio & internet since 2pm. How are we getting on this afternoon - a repeat of this morning? Back online just to hear the eegit from Louth.

el Fenomeno · 11-07-2023 04:02PM

How do these people get elected....

PGE1970 · 11-07-2023 04:02PM

On behalf of the people of County Louth, can I apologise for the absolute clown that is Peter Fitzpatrick.

Please be assured that we do speak english and can put together a coherent sentence.

StrawbsM · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

Oooof

ButtersSuki · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

"I love your county very much"

FFS.

deaglan1 · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

Jesus wept - this TD is a laughing stock. People of Louth, why did you vote this guy in ?

Mo Ghile Mear · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

This guy is showing that he doesn't really understand the ins and outs. It's like a barstool conversation.

11-07-2023 04:03PM

Deputy Fitzpatrick must be one of us on the Tubridy radio thread 🤣 🤣 maybe Mr Toast 🤣

fluke · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

People slagging of Fitzy but he did rattle Tubs

Hyperbollix · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

Strap on the kevlar Tubs. It's the Griff!

To be real for a moment. Is there a way RTE can survive this?

Irishdancer · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

Peter Fitz is a fan of the two.

His closing statement is patently clear here.

Very clever guy to hoodwink us all!!

11-07-2023 04:03PM

I think some of these TDs think this is their big moment to show their constituents how good they are up in Dublin. What it really proves though is how incredibly stupid and downright sloppy some of them are. As thick as two short planks.

Comhrá · 11-07-2023 04:03PM

In fairness Fitzpatrick is a disaster, totally unfit for his position and I don't blame RT for being flustered.

DeanAustin · 11-07-2023 04:04PM

"I love your county"

Preferred the John Mullane version.

There’s hope for them so.

evolvingtipperary101 · 11-07-2023 04:04PM

Go on, Postman.

DO YOU HAVE A CONTRACT?

That rattled them. Big conflab with the solicitor.

No it’s not plausible not even remotely. They knew well what they were at and are hiding behind this Renault deal and when the Renault money dried up RTE footed the bill. That’s on RTE but Kelly would have known what was happening, while it may be difficult to prove such a thing; I don’t think it’s remotely plausible to suggest otherwise.

AdrianG08 · 11-07-2023 04:04PM

They need to forensically push Tubs on his reason for leaving the LLS. Tell him flat out you don't believe him. It's a remarkable coincidence.

Did he address the interview he did 2 weeks prior stating he had no intention of stepping away?

'mon the town.

evolvingtipperary101 · 11-07-2023 04:05PM

"Ryan Tubridy and Dee Forbes are seen to have jumped ship at the same time…"

"Ryan is still under contract."

"Sorry, he's not under contract."

"But were you not told the contract was up there, on May 31?"

"It's being renegotiated, for radio-only…"

Tubridy to Fitzpatrick: "I love your county very much."

Fitzpatrick to Tubridy: "You say the way you feel? There's plenty in this country feeling worse."

lee_baby_simms · 11-07-2023 04:05PM

“How could you be afraid of me?”

Something tells me that NK is no wallflower.

tayto lover · 11-07-2023 04:05PM

That was Peter (its starting to stop raining) Fitzpatrick.

ZookeeperDub · 11-07-2023 04:05PM

It’s going in circles now, better off cutting it short as both Tubs and Kelly lying

if I was in it, would stand up, say to the lads they are lying and no point going any further

Itssoeasy · 11-07-2023 04:06PM

Jesus I didn’t see this mornings output but I see mattie McGrath and RBB are in the room. This won’t be in the middle it’ll be either box office or a bin fire.

Furze99 · 11-07-2023 04:06PM

Kelly being briefed to quote 'confidentiality' but we get the idea.

No.. he might not be polished, well-spoken or presented - but he did a great job there to fluster the 2 lads and have them stumbling, visibility irritated and showing their arrogance towards a (like him or not) elected representative.

It's exactly what they DON'T want - nice, long-winded soft-ball questions and deference to RT's celeb status is what they want and expect, and they (RT especially) seem get very annoyed when particularly this last part isn't forthcoming.
