Ah here, Dermot Ahern, DJ Willie O'Dea J, Dick Roche ... and who's this only Micheál Martin coming out attacking the Tribunal...

Fianna Fáil is sunk. It has to be.

Don't bet on it.
The people of this country have proven many times before that when it comes to elections they are pure stupid. They even bought all the F.G. lies last time too.

Now THAT is a protest I can get into.

I read the first sentence and I read no further.

I note the publication today of the Mahon Tribunal Final Report which are not the findings of a court of law.

He wears the "not a court of law" like a badge of honour. The reality is himself and his cronies set up the tribunals to subvert the courts of law, to make sure he never faced a judge. When lawmakers go bad, this is what results.

These aren't the findings of a court of law because you wrote the laws that way you vile bollocks, and every soulless bastard that took a shilling from the Irish taxpayer in the name of this farce.

This is the face of bald and open corruption folks. This is the face of a man who deliberately and with malice aforethought went out to fleece a nation. This is a man who sits in his mansion laughing at the thick paddies still paying his wages. Only we're not so thick Bertie, we can see full well what you're about.

I won't go any further with it, but by god I'd shed no tears.

I love how we all bitch about how "No one will ever protest, we just sit and let this happen! You are all pathetic!!" Some guy offers you all a chance RIGHT NOW if you're in the area, and this is the result.

Good old AH, always non-consistent.

Yep, go up to a now private citizen's house to vent, and do what? Burn him out? Empathise with a lock of Shinners? Come off it!

steddyeddy · 22-03-2012 11:25PM

Definatly up for it. Where does he live ect. It would be a good idea to notify rte or tv3 of any plans to protest. Or send in an email to vincent browne stating our intent to protest. Im sure it would be read.

nlgbbbblth · 22-03-2012 11:26PM

Bertie - if you have a problem with the Tribunal's report then I suggest you kill yourself.

what's the address?

admiralofthefleet · 22-03-2012 11:28PM

ill be across the road having a pint, give me a shout when he comes out

ilovesleep · 22-03-2012 11:29PM

Protesting outside his house will do nothing but land you in trouble for harassment and don't put it past him that he'd do that to you. He's not worth it.

We do alright need protests to demand for justice, accountibilty, change ect and it is my opinion protests on a large scale around Dublin would help.

If the gaurds or dpp do not do their job it is I believe the duty of the citizens of the country to enforce justice.

This country is a vested interest haven. Name me one person that the entire country could follow, leaving behind their own little parochial prejudices? I will not protest under a socialist, union or shimmer banner. Each in their own way have made a cock of this country too. They protest becaue they are contrary, not for justice or fairness but for their own enrichment. They want their shot at the title.

The lack of action by other state forces cost us 32.6 million per word.

Jesus protest for your own dignity and protest against the fact that Ireland protects criminals.

Guy:Incognito · 22-03-2012 11:39PM

Protesting against the country wasting hundreds of millions on stupid tribunals to find out if someone was skiving a fraction of that amount would be a far better use of the time and energy, no?

ilovesleep · 22-03-2012 11:40PM

The tribunal report filled up to 3000 pages. How the fcuk can it only contain 920 words?

RobbingBandit · 22-03-2012 11:40PM

Grab your pitchforks folks we got us a good auld lynching to do, from the spire.

another with hunt to damage F.F. by F.G. brainless low lives.
come next election F.F. will be back in Government, The sooner the better.
at least they will abolish house charge et and get the country back on its feet. construction all thrived under F.F.

benway · 22-03-2012 11:43PM

Apparently brought in €300m (I think, open to correction on the exact figure) in unpaid taxes as well. On Primetime just now some academic was reckoning that last four or so Tribunals have actually more than paid for themselves when you factor in the amount of extra money the Revenue has taken owing to what they've unearthed.

where does padraig flynn come into it, did he also get money or what is his story, i did not catch it, but something about a farm

Report straight out called him corrupt, took £50k for his personal use from a developer, bought a farm with it.

ilovesleep · 22-03-2012 11:46PM

I want to hang him upside down by his ankles, poke a cattleprod into his eyes balls, stick a flame torch up his ass, and sh1t, p1ss and puke all over him.

doomed · 22-03-2012 11:47PM

Eh.. I can't understand why the Tribunal should have rejected my account of where I got the money. I gave them a variety of explanations. Jaysus they could have picked one of them.

temply · 22-03-2012 11:48PM

Bertie is a knacker.
