    They should, but knowing anything about stuff built with taxpayers money, it would probably take 25 years longer than scheduled & then bankrupt the country completely.

    They have hung the bollix out of the ordinary taxpayer already.

    Why isnt there some one with a fúcking clue in power. Like accountants managing the money, doctors running as health ministers and Judges running as justice ministers. Politics is a seperate career path and they're allowed to fúck with the running of the country directly, morons!!!!

    i love the comment at the end, it's time for the celtic jackass indeed.

    dj, not too sure about judges running the justice system yet, maybe a senior garda who can't complain about the short/suspended sentences that the judges give out against garda advice. if judge john neilan had his way we'd be in for some craic!

    What a waste of money.

    Can people in this bloody country get with the ****ing metric system. I have no idea about yards, miles or stones.

    Its a self-inflicted irish thing...we can estimate if there's pride at stake..and estimate very accurately if there's money at stake!

    100 yards = the length of 1 American Football field.

    Hope that helps. Probably not. Heehee

    Isn't it obvious why they are doing it?
    They don't want to show their faces in public whenever possible (such is the shame of some!) - and when it's not convenient to their benefit only!
    ...that and if they fall out of one of the two bars and restaurants at the Leinster House, they can sneak away more quietly away from cameras and public gaze of hatred!

    Build the tunnel, and load it with explosives.:pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,234 ✭✭✭thetonynator


    They're already in a hole, they should stop digging.


    Literally!!!


    :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,119 ✭✭✭Wagon


    I've never heard of any government to have a need to build a tunnel to save a 100 yard walk. Ever. It's stories like this which make people look at Ireland and laugh. It's the same thick retards which screw us all over. I don't get angry any more. I just get depressed.

    No chance. That'd be like turkeys voting for an election.

    It was in another paper a few weeks ago.

    The construction costs will be made up in less than 2 years on the rent saving of not needing somewhere because of it so makes sense

    too lazy to look for the details

    And it takes Americans 4 hours to get up and down a football pitch.

    not really, you need to convert that to proper Irish measurements.

    What is it in GAA pitches?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭Kasabian


    Maybe we could herd them all in to this tunnel and seal it up.

    Seems to be the only way of getting rid of the sh1te that runs this country. What with them failing to bow to the will of the people and let us decide who we want running up and down the tunnel busily getting on with the daily grind of running this fine country.

    Ah now can't be letting the plebs vote - they'd be sure to make the wrong decision - can't let that happen! FF will only let go of the national tit when there isn't a single drop of milk to be had and their friends are looked after.

    Sensationalist rubbish from the Tribune.
    Creating this link will involve minor structural adjustments to existing rooms and corridors at basement level in the two buildings and will not involve any major construction work.

    What is it in GAA pitches?

    A GAA pitch (Croker being the benchmark) is 130m - 145m.

    There is 91.44m in 100yds.

    So run from one end of the pitch to the 40m line (mean = 137.5), and that's how long the tunnel will be, more or less.

    They should, but knowing anything about stuff built with taxpayers money, it would probably take 25 years longer than scheduled & then bankrupt the country completely.
    Sure, maybe that wouldn't be a bad thing, maybe we could get a rich country to adopt us.

    I'd like to be adopted by France. I don't like the people much, but the weather's nice there.

    They should have their own tunnel, but only if it follows the same design as one of those Indiana Jones type tunnels, booby-trapped from one to the the other, complete with random huge stone ball. A handy number of bye-elections would be created if some of the lard-arse didn't quite make it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,009 ✭✭✭✭Run_to_da_hills


    This may be as far as the proposed Dublin metro will ever get. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 920 ✭✭✭Menengroth™


    *mental image of politicians scuttling through the tunnel like the rats they are*
