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

If Tubridy had confidence that he could make a go of it in the UK, he'd already have been gone. He wouldn't have let loyalty to RTE get in his way, and it's clear enough from today's hearing that he doesn't hate a good payday.
People miss the point that the Chair was softening him up. He proceeded to walk him into the haymaker, that their was, in effect, no signed three party contract. One of the two main points today.
There are some posters who can't make their point without insulting others and condescension. It's a poor reflection of their intellect, and character.
This is getting ridulous. They are all playing cat and mouse with the PAC committee.
Time to call in the guards.
Ted what is a barter account?
Its like Our Lord it simply cannot be explained and is mystifying.
Oh right. That explains it.
Goodnight Dougal.
Ted why is the barter company called anus?
Well there was a tremendous amount of sh*t going through it.
Wow Ted.
Wow indeed.
So was Ryans' sh*t resting in anus like your £173,000??
Good night.

I've seen this, now you all have to
😱
Excellent point
I fail to understand this RT burnout claim especially during the Covid period . He knew the process re organising the LLS for years before that So a bit of tweaking here and there to make it Covid ‘ compliant’ should not have been a big deal. And he had not to work at the FRONT LINE like eg the nurses/ doctors, etc and where some passed away as a result. We all had to work harder/ smarter because of coved . So what did RT have to do that was away and beyond what the rest of us had to do ?
Even NK gave in on this one acknowledging that others will possibly bring in similar numbers.
Seeing as you are throwing the spotlight on RT and NK, try throwing a spotlight on the PAC members asking stupid questions and wasting time themselves. Just one example below.
Chair: What did you sell when you worked for Cadburys.
NK: Chocolate.
Like what the fcuk has questions like that got to do with anything?
In selective statement analysis it would appear that it does Precious.
The man is directly related to the king of England isn't he?
if you have not seen/heard this - worth watching
A series of easy questions is a tactic used to disarm and draw out a witness.
It was a line of questioning that did eventually build to a point, to be fair
You might have missed the words of the chair towards the end - she stated something like she was aligning with all that one of the deputy’s said earlier- that deputy ( can’t remember name sorry) essentially said that they were all there today to try and work together to work through all of the issues but he stated that he didn’t feel they had done so in any way today.- or words very close to that effect- someone might have the exact wording.
The report from this group won’t be kind to these two - most definitely wont be kind .
In the first session they let them away with the waffling answers and not answering the question. They copped on later on and kept pulling them up asking them to answer the question
It still didn't stop Tub and NK from not answering the questions and just waffling on. Hopefully the public copped this on as well
RTE now trying to say it hangs in balance and a draw today. Total BS it was never a draw
Stanley tickled his ego wonderfully - and then boom.
Joe Brolly reckons there's clear evidence of multiple frauds and money laundering now.
Did he financially benefit from the Renault deal.
King John Plantagenet, Bad King John I.
His more recent ancestry would be green!
True but it did sound daft.
I think Tubridy and Kelly came across as absolute entitled clowns today. Tubridy was especially nauseating going on like he's a hero to kids of the country and they need him. The man is full on deluded about his standing in our society. NK for his part knew well the dodgy **** RTE exec were up too and he exploited that to maximum effect. They are just two people who took full advantage of a silly pack of clowns running the show.
Ultimately, for me the blame lies with the Executive committee and the Board of directors. GOL RC DF MD BOK amongst others are the most at fault for abdicating in their Corporate Governance responsibilities letting it become a wild west of all sorts of shenanigans and bringing the entire organisation into disrepute.
For me the book stops at the board and there needs to be serious charges brought. The full extent of barter accounts spending needs to be absolutely brought to the floor. What was spent and who spent it. RTE was a rudderless ship creaming the taxpayer.
I never want to see Tubs and his theatrical nonsense on my TV again. Apparently the most trusted man in the country. More like the most insincere man in the country.
What ever advice he took was terrible.
He has a low opinion of his audiences' intelligence like Marvel and Netflix.
He's god like and above us all based on the massage of €500k a year.
If Noel was selling chocolate bars again it would be a Tubrity because he would eat himself.
She was wonderful and just shows having even a small amount of time with the evidence is important. Imagine what will become clear over the next few weeks...
Genealogy eventually brings us all back to royalty. There's something about 1/4 of the world's population descending from Charlemagne in the 800s. Must look it up.
There were some awful time wasters there today prostituting themselves for votes with their constituents - some really pathetic performances and also, asking questions and not waiting for the answer - something Ryan is famous for doing 🤪

I was about to write something similar. If you go back 20 generations you have literally millions of ancestors. We're probably all related to some king or other.
One big club again withe Irish Stars.
Total cringe and shameless once they make coin.
Yes, my long lost cousin 😊
This perfectly sums up the shite we're expected to believe. RT and NK think we're idiots. I'm no fan of Joe Brolly but this nails it.
