When did John Crowne join Sin Fein?

mikeyjames9 · 31-07-2014 11:40PM

crowne is warbling on about austerity and saving money and policing doctors

its the tail wagging the dog

Harry Angstrom · 31-07-2014 11:42PM

I wonder if Ivor smuggled a mobile into prison? He'd have plenty to choose from.

I'd say he has the inmates there winding him up all day long asking him to get them a nice new phone

.....or he would get to know some other inmate who could 'provide' him with it!

I'm gonna get myself one of these umbrellas:

The entire health system should never be the subject of a 30/35 minute program - with two amateurs and one professional. All these programs just add to the confusion.

Naughton's point about the MS drug was worth investigating; I'm sure he knows why it's not paid for but, to keep onside with the voters, he pretends to be mystified!

Also why anybody would pay €75 for a drug if available for €3 in UK is beyond belief. That could have been the topic for the whole program and we might have got some genuine clarity.

Lady Chatterton · 05-08-2014 11:01PM

Danielle looks very like Síle Seoighe.

Harry Angstrom · 05-08-2014 11:09PM

These ads are ridiculous.

Harry Angstrom · 05-08-2014 11:10PM

It's Lord Kitchener!

BettePorter · 05-08-2014 11:12PM

I wonder what the drop in viewing figures has been since vinnie has been sick. Personally i have no interest in it save for the week dearbla had it which was at least bearable. Nobody does it like vinnie does though! Enda could be assassinated on croagh Patrick and I wouldn't switch over unless vinnie came back! Enda , Bertie and Larry Murphy could appear on the panel for a grilling and I wouldn't care!

Someone should tell him that it's not a fancy-dress do.:eek:

Harry Angstrom · 05-08-2014 11:19PM

I don't why anybody gives John Bruton the time of day. He was an inept Taoiseach and he's now a European arse-licker.

Harry Angstrom · 05-08-2014 11:24PM

Don't mention ze var, Ursula.

mikeyjames9 · 05-08-2014 11:31PM

this presenter is a bit deadbeat

wtf is bruton on about?

Harry Angstrom · 05-08-2014 11:33PM

Bruton wants us to glorify the slaughter of the First World War but he wants to forget about the "violent" Rising. Fcuking hypocrite.

He also seems to conveniently forget that Redmond wanted to remain part of The Empire.

Lapin · 05-08-2014 11:41PM

Spent the last hour watching a discussion on RTÉ 1 with Robert Ballagh on the panel.

Then flick over to Channel 3 and look who's there. Robert Ballagh again on another panel.

Feck sake.

I agree with Bruton about 1916 being unnecessary. The Irish, and particularly the 1916 leaders, seem to glorify the 'blood sacrifice'. This attitude was carried on by the IRA and resulted in 3000 unnecessary deaths during the 'troubles' in Northern Ireland. Nothing much has been achieved in Ireland by violence in the last 100 years that could not have been achieved by peaceful means. A lot of lives were wasted for no good reason.

Bruton not being drawn on independent Ireland's first government which enshrined conservatism.

for some reason I always hurled better when my jersey was soaked in blood :pac:

Bruton also forgets that Redmond encouraged men to fight in the first World War, thereby sending many to their deaths.

mikeyjames9 · 05-08-2014 11:46PM

what were they saying about household charge or what paper was it?

I just missed it

hotmail.com · 05-08-2014 11:49PM

They seem unable to deviate from the time schedule nowadays on this - I would much prefer a longer discussion on the main topic, than a review of the papers.

Lapin · 05-08-2014 11:50PM

Danielle Barron has lovely eyes.

Lapin · 05-08-2014 11:50PM

I want one !

One of Danielle's eyes?

The show is completely disjointed these days. It's a total mess. I'd prefer to see the 11pm news brought back, followed by an interminable ad, if it meant that the rest of the programme had a proper flow to it.

wtf is wrong with them that they can't see it

Harry Angstrom · 06-08-2014 11:06PM

It's "ESRI" Tom, you dolt.
