Liveline With Joe Duffy - Mod Note in OP

after 3 weeks of misery, Duffy is having at least 2 weeks,

I’m speculating that he is listening to the 3 weeks of shows, taking notes for his next buke

De Examiner agony letters

I received a flyer addressed to me yesterday morning at home from Fianna Fail. This was somewhat of a surprise to me as I am not a Fianna Fail voter, nor have I ever knowingly given my details to them - I suspect this is a reselling of a contact list or some such activity by a utility provider no doubt

The subject matter was the announcement of Alison Comyn's selection to run as a Fianna Fail candidate in Drogheda in the next General Election. Again why this would be of interest to me is somewhat puzzling as I am not from, nor do I live in, nor do I have any connection to either Drogheda or Louth.

Amongst the reasons given to vote for Ms. Comyn include the fact that she hosted Liveline, which was news to me as I had thought that someone who presented herself like Comyn did when she was on TV would find Liveline a little too low-brow for her good self. Upon further investigation through Google it transpires she did host the show - for 2 weeks in 2017. I'm not quite sure how that really qualifies one to be a TD, but this is Ireland in 2024 where it appears any form of name recognition or "celebrity" qualifies one to join the elected political gravy train. I suppose she could not possibly be any worse than some of the incumbents, but that really shouldn't be the sole measure to judge her suitability for public office by.

No doubt the host will monitor her progress closely, as he appears to harbour political ambition of his own.

I'll have to listen to this week to check if there is any mention of politicians going from left wing to ring wing on immigration and their views now that an election is coming up.

As I said RTE have 725 million reasons not to talk about this.

That smirk annoys me, he must be upto something

Also, I agree, 5500 for a flute that you need to fundraise for, needs and wants comes to mind?? Also, weren't we told we were living way beyond our means quite sometime ago.

The eaten bread is soon forgotten

Today:

Something about electricity providers.

Big VRT bills for imported cars and vans.

I remember that part about it, opportunity seen, in otherwords hes about 170 euros off the 5000 now?

I love music, but struggle to name the band members of my absolute favourite bands, with a few exceptions.

RIP to the man himself, but really, if we had an RIP show every time someone died, it would be wall to wall with death.

There is more than enough going on in the world to cover on Liveline, without people grying into their sherry over a singers death.
