Most Invisible Minister Award

Who is the most invisible Minister in the Cabinet.

For me it's a toss up between

Brendan Smith (Agriculture) and

Eamon Ryan (Communications, Energy & Natural Resources)

I'm sure this invisibleness means that they're busy in their departments defining policy, of course.

So, who is deserving of the Most Invisible Minister Award?

Tony Killeen (Defence).

Eamon Ryan?! That guy is never off out of the news!

I would go with Brendan Smith even though he is probably on some news station as I type this as the ploughing championship is on this week!

Harney has been very absent again for a long time now. Another of her periodical 'disappearances.'

Nothing more sinister than getting her hair done, I'm sure.

Willie O Dea seems to be around more often than than his successor recently.

She's an embarrassment, I cringe every time I see a picture of her.

Pick up the Farmers Journal this week, it's a great read. I do mean it, for the amount of content it's better value then many national papers.
Even buy it once just to read even if you don't understand a lot of it
Plus with the ploughing championships there is plenty going on

Brendan Smith is around , you're just not looking in the right places
