Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

I bet Mr. Tubrity is really hating be lectured by Boyd Barrett
It should be noted that having people employed as contractors saves huge amounts in pension liabilities.
I think it shows lack of self awareness as that wasn’t the place as his credibility was to do with his radio and TV work.
But he didn't blame him!
No question yet though
RBB your time is up
Maybe Boyd Barrett might actually do something
Well I didn't vote for the current president who swore he was only going to be there for one term!
Nope.. just comes across as condescending and insulting the intelligence of the committee, viewers and general public.
He's a light entertainer. His whole career is built on coming across as sincere and believable. He has had plenty of practise with the regular LLS misery slots too.
It just doesn't add up that he (as a contractor/sole trader/company director as pointed out) wasn't aware of the details involving his pay and contracts, nor that his agent didn't check or question these things but blindly trusted RTE and people who he says he barely knows - especially when it involves invoicing and paperwork that doesn't appear to add up.
RBB ...get to the point !
I am not a fan of Gerry but even that was a bit low by Tubrity. Maybe missing his bit of where he had a sad slot and needed to get it in.
Edit Sorry No the lowest Mr. Tubrity went was that interview with Barry McGuigan
Carol & Associates?
Oh holy god. Don't tell me I'm still on that feckin' island.....
Might have worked well in the 80s pre online social media era but looks silly now
If he had no shame he would not be there at all, he is trying to defend his reputation as he feels he suffered unjust reputational damage.
Bet he'd love to swap places with some power persona like yourself!
Anyone know the agent who has the other top 7 talents on their books?
An agent would take around 10-15% of their clients fee, it's nice coin all the same.
Lottie won't like that. Did she do the first intelligent thing I have seen her do and jump a sinking ship
To be fair, the vast majority of them on the committees (and therefore in the Dail and Seanad) are absolutely thick as pigshyte.
It's not 50/50 on 'culchies' vs 'whackers' on the committees either!
Tubs agent talks like an absolute charlatan
Do you reckon Kelly was kicking RTs shin under the table and gesturing to get them the hell out of there?
At least it shows sincerity IMO.
Kindness is his very makeup
Oh I agree politicians come out with a lot of drivel in other news water is wet but that is not what I was responding to. I was responding to we need an inquiry how they pick the people for these committees. They are picked from who is elected from the Dail and the Seanad
Post of the day.
I'm sure you'd vote for Tubridy if he ran for president. At least he'd have one vote then.
tubs comes across as utterly delusional and devoid of any responsibility or shame.
Just a note here now they have gone over time and the Chair Niamh Smyth asked NK and RT if they are willing to stay another 10 minutes.
RT interjected that two/three minutes each for each of them of the committee is not enough and is willing to be questioned for a bit longer as he works/used to work in radio and knows how quickly 2minutes can go. He told the members of the committee to take their time if they wish.
“A bunch of culchee eejits”? What a comment that is. It’s the Oireachteas Committee, it’s your first time watching them obviously which just means you haven’t a balls notion what you’re blathering about but you did manage to reveal that you’re a fairly thick individual who looks down their nose at people from outside Dublin in an embarrassing and prejudicial manner. Even more embarrassing is the “likes” in support of your idiotic and very thick prejudice.
