I did not have sexual relations with that woman....no really, I didn't lads.

I heard he had sexual relations with Mary Coughlan...I actually did.

Would also answer the inexplicible promotion of an utter moron to the office of tainiste as well.

Also Rté will cut off the last few minutes of the Q&A if the Qs get a bit tetchy.

Cant quite wrap my head around that..think I'm in denial.

ah sure people will say anything, case in point being me.

If there's any substance to it, maybe that's what he is going to announce at the press conference before eloping on a trade mission to switzerland with her.

imagined the stunned couple of seconds in the crowd of journos before all hell breaks loose

take that meeja whores! I played for Clara in the county championships, what did yiz bastards do?

SKY say he's staying on, in both roles.

Another false alarm, but then again, when has he ever done the right thing?

Just seen on Sky News he's set to remain in place.

What's the point? More money wasting on non-news

I switched away once i heard the words ' For the good of the party'
See, that is the problem with FF, it's never for the good of the country.
