Notice RTEs coverage on all this since it broke - a few bits in their normal news and 1 half an hour long prime time show.
Puppets for the government they are. They are probably told to play it down as much as possible so that people don't take much heat of all this.

my very thoughts 30 minutes ago, I had 2fm on in the car and the guy was telling everyone to take a deep breath and calm down, and release all the anger.
They have all been briefed.

In an earlier post a poster referred to all of this dying down after a few weeks ant it'll all be forgotten.

It's important that we keep this in the public arena for some time and if it appears to have died down, to periodically resurrect, to remind others about it.

Suggest that every now and then ie.boards posters start new threads to keep dialogue going.

The whole scandal is one which has shown Ireland in a bad light to the rest of the world..... we know Irish people are generally 'good' people, liked and respected around the world.

It's important that we keep dialogue going so that anyone from wherever who might decide to check out what's being discussed on forums such as this can see that us ordinary Irish people are as ****ed off with those Irish Bankster blood sucking parasatics and their elitist cronies as they are or as they might be.

Message to the world: these feckers are not representative of Irish people.

Chances are even typical blood sucking parasites are distancing themselves from these people.

so, there's 79 pages of this thread so far. And I really don't have enought time to catch up. can anyone tell me where these tapes were all this time? My impression is that they're conversations from when the bank was being bailed out. Where were the tapes then?

Leftist · 27-06-2013 11:12AM

the tapes are an accurate indication of the old boys, thickos with arrogance culture that is rife in ireland.

clowns who put their foot on the peddle and took their hands off the wheel whilst stuffing gold plated potatoes down their mouths.

they should bring back Punch cartoons because really we are a nation of thick slobs.

Telephone calls in banks are "recorded" onto hard drive.

They have been there for years,

Probably one or two guards have been listening to these and in the last year have come across these conversations

(speculation on my behalf here) Guard either got pissed off with slow response after he reported these conversations, Was (maybe) told to keep this quiet. Decided to wait a few months then leak them (Irish Edward Snowdon)?

Were new tapes released at 12? Anyone heard them yet?

Mr Shatter said he fully backed Taoiseach Enda Kenny's assessment that there was an "axis of collusion" between politicians and bankers around the time of the banking collapse.

He said there are legitimate questions in the public interest on who held talks with bankers and what they talked about.

Speaking on RTE Radio, Mr Shatter also said it would have been inappropriate if gardai or other investigators had told him that the tapes existed or details of the recorded conversations.

New legislation is to be passed in the next two and a half weeks allowing for a new style of parliamentary inquiry to investigate the banking crisis.

It will have the power to subpoena witnesses, demand documentation, compel former politicians to give evidence. It would not make findings of guilt against individuals but catalogue the evidence.

Heaven forbid that Alan, Minister for Justice, Defence & Propriety, would have had information passed to him regarding the tapes' existence even... it would have been inappropriate.

How he can say stuff like this with a straight face is concerning.

Anyway, a new style of parliamentary inquiry that isn't like the one they wanted but was turned down by referendum, no.. a new style.

No findings of guilt, though.

But he knew intimate details about Mick Wallace's affairs?

Well, I've been lurking for awhile and not posting as others more skilful with language seem to have covered any points I would like to make. I decide to join the protest at the GPO and, I must say, it is very disappointing. Maybe 50 bodies max and to add to the unreal element the guards who were overseeing the affair have left. For SHAME Ireland, for shame.

AnOrdinaryJoe · 27-06-2013 12:22PM

This Alan Shatter guy..... is this the same Alan Shatter, the Minister for Justice (a post which by defination shouldn't even exist by all accounts) who advises that he has mild asthma which doesn't impair him in any way, but unlike other mild asthma sufferers, is unable to blow into a gardai breathalyser piece of kit ?

Is this the same Minister for Justice (sic) Alan Shatter who in connection to a report issued by the gardai officer in question relating to said failed breathalying attempt, has rather unfortunately had the documents and any connected computer records relating to same, mysteriously and unfortunately go missing from the police station where the report was filed by the gardai officer ?

Is this the same Minister for Justice (sic) Alan Shatter who inappropriately used privileged information he should not have been in possession of (had to have come from within police) to try to rubbish another individual ?

And is this the same Minister for Justice (?) who has banged on in the past about how fraud and counterfeit goods are costing the country billions in lost revenues and who, following a break in at his home it was discovered that several watches stolen at the time were.... er.......counterfeit ?

Is it the same Alan Shatter, Minister for Justice (? ? ? ?) re all of the above that we're talking about ?

No signs of bloody and violent revolution here in Dublin 2.

I'll keep everyone posted in case an angry mob is seen marching down Kildare Street to storm the Dáil.

Don't be too hard on the people of Ireland: it's raining. You need better weather for outdoor activities.

So, eh blast them with piss
Your ma
And whatever your having yourself!

thegetawaycar · 27-06-2013 12:30PM

This is great for the indo they will have huge hits on their site with the promise of a new tape at 12.

I'd say a lot of politicians have been frantically checking with their banker mates and gardai to see if they have been caught on tape. Cowen did his dirty work on the Golf course so we will never find out what he knew or learnt their.

I hope the indo publish some damaging info on politicians. Prove what they knew and how they lied.

AnOrdinaryJoe · 27-06-2013 12:31PM

And the award for total hypocrisy and double standards goes to....... ****... this is one hell of a list..... I didn't know there was the many rotten bankers and their cronies in Liarland........ can somebody bring me a seat, it's gonna take a while to read out this list of nominees......

Was gonna use the 'And the Oxters Award for (as in.... up to their Oxters in etc, etc)...but I thought 'Grabbies' just 'sounded' better.

I would not be here either but for an ironic twist of faith whereby I won an umbrella in a draw last night. The universe wanted me to go. True story.

foxcoverteddy · 27-06-2013 12:33PM

I fully understand the sentiments, but do angry mobs/marchers really achieve much, yes it is a showing of solidarity, sometimes abused by others for a completely different reason.
We are Irish we achieved freedom at a very high cost, it is time the world was told how we the people feel about our political arena and the banker's and auditor's etc.
There are good banker's and probably good politicians and to those we must apologise, however the statue of irish people must rise above the pig trough brigade.
Who is going to lead us to bring our beloved country back to the position it held in the world.
Let true Irish people speak up with one voice, jail the bankers and corrupt politicians and those who help them.
If our justice system is incapable then we must go to Europe and let them know we want no part of this scam and nefarious practice.
Ireland for those who care.
