    Surely there must be one of those "naked taoiseach" pictures on the net by now that's good enough to print on a A4 sheet of paper?

    Let's all print it off and stick it into our windows at home and in the car :D

    Yup, cause we really need to piss him off while he holds us by the short and curlys...at least wait till the budget is over.

    Do not put it on your car... or house window..they know where you live then :eek:

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Someones already done this.There are stickers all over Dublin with the image on it.I saw loads when walking through Temple Bar last night.
    Considering the quality of the stickers I presume they were done by the artist themselves.Looks like the types of stickers Pi,Maser,Asbestos and other well known Dublin graffiti artists use.

    Anyone any links to the indecent morally corrupting pictures?

    The whole business is f*cking ridiculous. The Gardai confiscated other paintings that the artist had in his home.

    How the hell is it legal to confiscate paintings? :mad:

    How long before it's illegal to call him Biffo? :eek:

    I think this is a good idea except that it would mean that Fianna Fail would then have to use the full manpower of their S.S. to confiscate the pix from peoples homes/cars rather than just the handful who have been deployed for this national gallery matter.

    Anyone found a printable link yet?

    Haven't had any luck so far :(

    Forget about the grumpy pose on the pot, I think we'd need to commission a portrait of his actual a*shole to accurately make the point regarding his leadership abilities.

    I know I suggested a dirty protest before but this is making even me feel unwell.Its so digusting :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 54 ✭✭Luisella


    That artist was brilliant. It reminded me of the pranks done by the situationists back in the 50s and 60s, like the Notre-Dame Affair.

    DeV's not going to be happy when the Gardaí come knocking for the real names of all you protester types.

    The prime minister's office has come under criticism after phoning broadcaster RTE and demanding an apology for a news item on the paintings.

    The opposition said the office was practising censorship and accused the police of overreacting.

    "The public interest will not be served by a national broadcaster bowing to political pressure," said Liz McManus, a Labour Party representative. "We live in a democracy where political satire is part and parcel of our democracy."

    Police also threatened to raid the offices of a local radio station after Casby spoke on air.

    Police said the issue is still under investigation, but Casby could face charges of incitement to hatred, indecency and criminal damage.

    Got to teach that fat ass what civil liberties are.

    I have a feeling there is going to be a 500% levy on non-commissioned portraits of politicians squeezed into the budget :D
    That will teach you to try and engage in freedom of expression!

    Tell DeV not to worry ...even a garda should be able to figure out my name from the number plate on the car, I believe it even throws in an address for free :D

    I dont give two fncks about it. If they arrive with a warrant, I'll give them everything I know about you. If they dont, they can kiss off. Its really rather simple :)
