    In the interest of debate it would have been interesting if there had been another voice on the opposite side.

    Everyone they are talking about is dead....

    Tom Gilmartin's shocking story of corruption was just the prelude to how Ireland ended up bankrupt - planners & politicians taking bribes from developers to get planning permission for massive building projects.
    When Tom Gilmartin wouldn't pay bribes they all turned against him and stonewalled his efforts. Horrific story and there's so little about now:mad:

    I don't follow why Christy is on? Does he have a new tune ready about corruption?

    Yeah and he names loads of places that the crowd know and they go "whoop we're from there" when he says it..
    "They're all broke from cullahill to the hills of Kildare town" etc

    To be fair to Tubs ( I know, I know.... :o ) he is letting them all speak, without interrupting them, or cutting across them as much as he usually does to his guests, especially ones who he would not be disposed to make look good.

    Bring in the audience, Ryan.

    Let a few outraged people roar abuse at the camera.

    That's what would have happened in the old days.

    I'd pay to see that!!!.....:pac:

    Why exactly is Christy on the panel????

    Not sure. I was led to believe he was a scholar on public planning but he seems to have been gagged.

    Thanks BB. I had no idea. Nepotism still alive and well. Does that make David MacSavage his cousin though?!!

    Yup.

    David Andrews his uncle and Barry and Chris Andrews his cousins.

    All 3 were FF TDs, both David and Chris were ministers.

    Tubridy's grandfather was close friends with Dev and the first chairman of RTE.

    Chris Andrews has now joined Sinn Fein.

    great that all this is all being laid bare here. Sickening sickening stuff. Anyone who ever votes for FF again after watching this deserves everything they get.

    Christy should get his blood pressure checked.......

    Seriously....


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    This would make a good drama - conspiracy, greed, bribes, corruption.

    It would be great if RTE commissioned it, but it will never happen.

    That's because he left his cue cards in the green room

    Pee Flynn still knocking around Mayo, even doing readings at Mass.

    As regards a debate they wouldnt be able to find anyone to represent the opposition viewpoint.

    I'd say Enda is sitting at home tonight with Fionnuala and rubbing his hands together - Gerry Adams and Sinn Féin have had a bad week, so has Eamon Gilmore/Labour and now the whole country is being reminded about Fianna Fáil's corrupt (recent) past.

    Much as I hate Fianna Fáil and the Shinners, Gormless Gilmore and Eejit Enda must be delighted with all of this.......

    Yeah would live to see Ray Burke, P Flynn and Bertie on for balance. Did I miss something - did all three die?

    There's a Haughey drama due soon - it's that's successful there might be a chance it could happen (wouldnt rate the odds too high though)
