Enda Kenny Boobs Again with 5% Pay Cut

    Enda Kenny wanted to show leadership today, so at his party’s pre-budget announcement he let it be known he has asked the Dail to cut his pay by 5% for next year. Bold. Decisive. Leading.
    Only that on Wednesday he was speaking on that very topic on Today FM’s The Last Word. Paul Gogarty suggested that all TDs get 8% cut, Enda dismissed the idea as “popuilist nonsense”.



    Yet people still abuse me for voting for Fianna Fail. Think this idiot justifies decision yea?

    I just saw the word boobs and clicked the thread.

    Then I saw the words Enda Kenny and immediately thought tit.

    So I suppose it delivered in a way, but still disappointing

    ROFL at orestes and his funbags obsession :D

    you'd think that Enda Kenny would do it for you but at the end of the day.....

    He only does it a little


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,483 ✭✭✭miju


    thats not right chosen1 on so many , many levels :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 423 ✭✭chosen1


    How so?
    Haven't you heard of mayofilia?
    The extra 'h' in start and stop really does it for alot of voters I hears.
    Certainly will do it in the next election

    The fact that Kenny (like many of his compadres) is a tit doesn't justify support for Fianna Fail.

    Seriously, given the current alternatives, if the South Park kids stood for election next time round, I'd vote for them! :rolleyes:

    unfortunately Irish democracy is a bit like American democracy; one or the other and I would personally choose the one I think aren't idiots to the best of my knowledge. Could be wrong though as I often am.....
    Never have being though

    Enda Kenny is the worst kind of media whore, he trys to hard. I'd prefer if he just got a real job then we could save 100% of his wasted wage packet.

    Still and all, I don't see any of the other fatsos racing to tighten the belts. Enda is the only one who's actually put his wages where his mouth is.

    The only thing Enda Kenny has near his mouth is the medias big fat cock!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 423 ✭✭chosen1


    If you use the phrase tighten your belt all I can think of is Charlie and you know what a decent fella he was.
    Enda all the way yea...........

    Ignorant, boorish, Thick, Plank, Gombeen, Jizim-monkey, Fat Head, Dis-connected, Dittery, Hypocritical, Liar...


    Some words I feel most describe the said, and every other politician.

    If i wanted a poodle in power I'd vote for Enda. He has as much bite as one!

    Dear God, will we ever get an opposition that is actually up to the job and isn't useless!

    He was on the radio on Thursday evening criticising some guy from the Green Party who suggested an 8% pay cut. Bloody twats the lot of them.

    If I was on 150k or whatever he's on, I'd take a lot more than a 5% pay cut. Especially if I was doing it as some kind of media whoreism.

    And it would be even easier not to take any pay cut.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,351 ✭✭✭ninty9er


    How much of a pay cut do we reckon Michael O'Leary will take in light of Ryanair's current financial position?? a negative one perhaps?

    Also assuming Fionnuala doesn't work the take home value of the current TD salary is approx. €78-€79k vs. €75-€76k with the proposed paycut....so all in all he's taking a €3k ish paycut and wants us all to be happy.

    Fair play to him for being innovative with the media though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,649 ✭✭✭✭CDfm


    he is no Willie o Dea -thats for sure.

    I would like him make a more worthwhile gesture.

    Just say he sat down with the ruling coalition and said -right guys the budget is around the corner there is another 4 years to an election - lets put some serious propsals on the table to radically reform the public service and the health service accross the board-without partisan politics.

    Now thats a real stand. A 3k pay cut. ROFL

    Dear God, by the same token, will we ever get a Government that isn't useless?

    Mind you CowAn has a lot of bite considering his corpulence. Harney also.

    Maybe not, but at the end of the day the only realistic choices you have for who should lead the country are himself and Brian Cowen. And I know for sure which one I'd rather see in power (and it isn't Kenny)

    I think it's more like 110K. Of course, there are all sorts of allowances beyond that. And lets not forget the redundancy pay if they get fired or quit. Sure tis a grand auld life.

    And lets not forget the hairspray. He must use loads of that.

    He's dropping from 106,000(ish) to 100,700. At that kind of money, 5% makes feck all difference.
