    I just emailed Mr Wallace, the Taoiseach, Alan Shatter and Brendan Howlin to tell them I think he should resign his Dail seat. If you feel strongly about it I suggest you do the same. Their email addresses are as follows;

    webmaster@taoiseach.gov.ie
    alan.shatter@oireachtas.ie,
    brendan.howlin@oir.ie,
    mick.wallace@oireachtas.ie

    I walked past his restaurant (Wallace's Taverna in 'the Italian quarter') last Friday night and it was packed. Makes me sick how people can still support a man like this and how willingly they give him their money as he continues to screw all of us day every day.

    Wont happen he will not give it up. I dont think Enda, Shatter or Howlin can do a damn thing to get him out

    Good man Mick - this is a great way to pay back the €2 million euro plus you stole from the taxpayer (and schools and hospitals):
    TAX cheat Mick Wallace was paid more than €62,000 last month after he began claiming the controversial party leader's allowance.

    The Irish Independent has learned the TD received more than 15 months' payments in a lump sum after deciding to accept the untaxed and unvouched allowance, which is worth €41,000 a year.

    The Department of Public Expenditure and Reform confirmed last night that Mr Wallace began claiming the payment last month -- but had asked for it to be backdated to March last year.

    The amount paid to date is €62,218, it said.

    The extent of the payments comes after the Irish Independent revealed last week that the tax cheat had started claiming the untaxed and unvouched leader's allowance.

    The Independent TD refused to say if he decided to draw down the payment following revelations about his massive €2.1m tax bill.

    There is a politician named Mick,
    A developer he once was - the prick,
    He entered the dail,
    New politics was his call,
    But he is a greedy, cheating dick.

    I don't mean to piss on your efforts but e-mail doesn't matter a damn. If you're really up for it then pen letters and post them, it's the only way to send a message.

    How do we force a by election ? Because he can mumble on and on about how he'll step down if the people of wexford want him to but he's not exactly given them any say in the matter.

    Anyone I know from wexford who voted for him wouldnt do so again. His support in wexford has disintegrated and he knows damn well they want him to resign. He was in it for the money from the beginning and everyone has realised it.

    I was told this evening by a friend they read that he said he was taking the leadership allowance to research what it is that the people of wexford want him to do for them. Nearly wet myself. I'm from wexford and look forward to him calling to me as part of his research to find out what it is I want him to do.

    For the record I want him to resign apologise and get the hell out of wexford and stop heaping shame on the people of this county.

    FF fcuked up this country with their runaway policies, over inflating wages and losened bank regulation and the two went hand in hand to create a bubble and with this they lined their own pockets. Economy set up on quicksand and all done out of greed.

    When the bust came, they helped themselves, saved their mates in the developing and banking sectors and didn't do half enough to control spending, probably hoping that things would pick up and today we have a failed banking system with japanese style ghosts banks and a huge deficit and a feck load of debt - on personal, business and state levels.

    This country was run on a hidden policy of greed. One thing was for sure, the politicial field was and is still corrupt.

    The events of 2008 and November of 2010 when the IMF were called in, were huge wake up calls for so many people. Many people were able to see many problems that Ireland had and feburary of 2011, we voted in the elections, hoping for change and reform.

    In FGs and Labours 2011 maninfestos, they had sections of new politics and white collar crime.

    We now have a politician, elected to the dail and it turns out he cheated on his tax bills. He was due to give up half his salary to repay what he owes. Less than 3 months later he takes and allowance that he is entitled to, and gets it backdated to march 2011 - backdated 15 months. Is he going to declare his new income to revenue?

    Here we have something corrupt and greedy too (the same as what was there previously). I want to know what FG are going to do about this? They said they were going to sort out white collar crime and deliver a new politics to Ireland.

    Now is your chance Enda.

    Or are you just going to sit on this, the same as Berties tribunal?

    The whole of the Irish electorate? Wallace was in one constinuncy. I fail to see how the rest of Ireland are responsible for sending a developer to the Dail.

    We could compile a list of his businesses so we can start to boycott them....?

    The pity is that TD Claire Daly can no longer speak at rallys or marches on the Home Tax because of her support for Mick Wallace

    On the contrary - the less people have to listen that commie wind-bag, the better...
