    Great photo.

    I've a feeling this will become Harney's legacy photo

    Edit: anyone who has had the misfortune of having a sick relative sitting on a hospital trolley for 2 days will agree it's appropriate.

    Fair play to this girl, point brilliantly made

    Minister for Health Mary Harney was sprayed with red paint today as work began on a new mental health unit in Dublin.
    The TD was splattered across her neck, hands and clothes as protesters angry at health budget cuts gathered at the planned facility in west Dublin.
    Despite the paint attack, Ms Harney continued with the turning-of-the-sod ceremony at the new Ballyfermot Primary Care and Mental Health Centre.
    The attack took place in the grounds of the unit as up to 20 protesters mounted a demonstration at the gates.
    A Garda spokesman said a woman was arrested on suspicion of assault on Ms Harney in the grounds of Cherry Orchard Hospital at about 10.30am.
    She was being detained in Ballyfermot Garda station for questioning.

    :D

    Is pelting our politicians with paint the best we can do? Surely there are better ways to protest than to resort to resort to something a child would do.

    I'm not a Mary Harney fan but thats another debate. Fair play to Mary for continuing on with the ceremony. Most would have walked away.

    I'm as annoyed about where we are as anyone but this kinda thing is just childish and if we're gonna behave and react like this, is it any wonder they treat us with contempt?

    Is it just me, or has Mary lost a significant amount of weight?

    Otherwise we would have run out of paint.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,634 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    haha the pictures are hiliarious. They look as if she's committed murder or something, and there's one of her where she's taking off her jacket which look as if she's getting ready to fight someone.

    I don't think it's very funny. It certainly isn't something that's going to aid the recovery of the country. At what point does someone's frustration become an inadequate excuse for assaulting a politician? Cheering on this sort of childish behavior will only lead to someone taking it too far.. and I bet my bottom dollar that the same people calling the silly bint a hero wouldn't be so vocally supportive then

    lol, class. I hear she tried to lick the paint off her neck thinking it was a ketchup covered sausage roll :)

    Well done the paint "shooter" :)

    Pity about her.
    She is indirectly responsible for the suffering of many

    More of it I say.
    Might make the fuckers feel the touch of the little people again.

    Looks like she stopped for a Ricks burger en route to the opening ceremony and things got messy

    :p

    I prefer her getting caught red-handed to getting caught with her pants down.:eek:

    Harney bashing seems to be very popular these days. I dont think she is the worst of them at all. She actually chose the Health portfolio when it was obviously completely unmanageable but she has stuck with it all along. None of the other ****ers would touch it with a barge pole
