    Lenihan did it a few weeks ago - now it's Manseragh's turn! on a program last night (at least this time the English don't get to see it)






    I don't know whether to laugh or cry. This is the type of imbecile in charge of the country.:pac: The face on your one next to him is priceless.:eek:


    Fcuk sake lads - the whole situation is absolutely catastrophic yet hillarious at the same time:pac:

    Even the presenter is pissing himself laughing near the end.

    Pfft, ageist Biggins - you think this guy was a genius when he was 25?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,816 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush

    Apart from the fact that he was highy embarassing, the person who gave him the go ahead to appear on the show needs to be held to account. Surely someone must have known he was not the right choice.

    lol Neck no. I'm old myself so you can understand me not being ageist.
    I'm just against old and tired worm out ideas and old farts espousing them, also too with unflattering shameful manners.

    He should have moved over long ago for someone that is more camera/interview prepared, etc.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,575 ✭✭✭junkyard


    That is scarey to think a halfwit like him can get to be minister, gives you an idea of the mentality that voted him in.:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,803 ✭✭✭El Siglo


    That was hilarious because not one person on that video could be described as being 'Irish'.:D Mansergh's an old, english, condescending prick, you should have heard what he said on Morning Ireland (yeh I know, old persons' program) last February to Eugene Regan (FG senator) when Regan was questioning Mansergh about Bertie's finances; "You should have respect for your betters!":eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    The House of Lords is the place for him imo.

    Whether the govt are dithering with their policies, he certainly dithers in getting to the bleedin point.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 220 ✭✭Declan30


    More Waffle form a Goverment minister he must have got lessons from Willie :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27 ukraine_orange


    I like her. She makes some sense. "Stop talking and start doing!" :D And she's right, people are scared.

    As for Manseragh, "eh-eh-eh" gets a bit annoying after a minute.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,816 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush

    Even worse!
    A further useless drain on the economy!

    Labour FTW.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,366 ✭✭✭luckat


    We didn't - he's a senator.

    But wait... how is he a senator and 'Junior Minister'?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 422 ✭✭Compak


    We do elect senators. Well NUI and TCD grads do

    Very poor representation from the government and also this nonsense of a business not getting 3,000 euro and 12 plus jobs gone. Cop on, as if anyone believes 3,000 would change the fortune form a business to having to shut down to being viable. Sure obviously suspending 5 of them for a week would get the 3,000.

    SO from both sides we have retardation and we look like fools internationally.

    He was found frozen in a block of ice in the bowels of dublin castle. Once they got him out of the red coat and got it into his head he couldn't own slaves, they let him out in public. He's paid in gin.

    Having watched it he comes across as a stammering impotent moron and she like a clueless opinionated teenager. Harsh to watch.

    Well, that was embarrassing.

    That's the Fff-ianna Fff-ail stammer. They use it to give them time to think.
