Is Eamon Ryan a troll?

Dorakman · 22-03-2020 12:35am #1

I seriously cannot believe that someone with their full wits about them, could come up which such half-baked and stupid ideas. Is he serious, or just having a laugh?

statesaver · 22-03-2020 12:42am

Nah, he's just a Green

A couple of steps beyond, being out of touch

He's a ludicrous champagne socialist virtue signaller with terrible ideas. His party was recently advocating that the population of our island should be increased to 10 million.

His hero 'our' current President Higgins has very similar ideas, but fortunately no real power.

Just nuts

He's probably looking at how easy young Varadkar and Harris, not to mention the aul dear in Aras an Uachtarain, get away with it, and thinking "that could be me - I also could waft into power spouting bull**** and virtue signalling for the easily led masses".

And to think the people that elected him actually mock and laugh those in Kerry that elected the Healy-Raes.

beertons · 22-03-2020 1:53am

So you failed with planting the lettuce seeds then.

In fairness at least people can make out what he is taking about with out having to rely on subtitles or a translator ðŸ˜

i had this thought the other day and i do believe at this stage there's an element of this to his nonsense.

it's a poor state of affairs that he has such obvious contempt for people tbh

You don't win friends with salad Eamon!

Oh look

It's the mocking that the other poster was talking about, bang on queue.

Randle P. McMurphy · 22-03-2020 2:09am

Surely that's a comedian doing a parody of him.? Can't be real. Seriously?

You forgot to mention whAt he said that you have an issue with.

Someone posted the link to the video a few posts up. I checked it and it is him, but its like something Oliver Callan would do.

They want to save the planet and tax us to that but then states they want 10 million or more on this small island, eh pal this isn't how you save the planet...

There is 17.8 million in the Netherlands
There is 4.83m in Ireland.

Land mass of Netherlands is 41.5km^2
Land mass of Ireland is 84.4 Km^2

The Netherlands kept there villages and cities and didn’t allow one off housing. And urban sprawl.

With proper urban planning 10 million us very possible and feasible

What’s really worrying is the press don’t dare question him with respect to reality.

You really can't understand the Healy Raes? I'm not from Kerry and can understand them perfectly fine.

NSAman · 22-03-2020 3:26am

Ehhmoan is a failed bicycle sales man who now makes a living of the tax payer.

Is he a troll? No. Most trolls have FAR more intelligence.

Entitled, idiotic and not as smart as the Kerry lads... but yet you are paying for him.

.

I'd have thought the greens would want a reduction in population (everywhere) to reduce the impact on climate change, no?

Meh, could be worse, he could be advocating stuff that gets people killed, like drink driving.

Trolls live under dark bridges, and eat children.

Eamon lives on a South facing balcony, on the Southside, eating homegrown salads.

So, no, close but no citrus salad.

I am not very there but can understand them perfectly. Maybe you are the problem and just a bit thick.

We might be very happy with our one off housing now with covid 19 around..
Different note
Also not a farmer but we can feed our own nation.. the bashing they got for last few years was unfair. Cleaner air in China .. fish back in canals in Venice . UK need to import food to feed their population. Ever think its easier to attack a small group in society rather then look at big picture. If farming was such a well subsidised area why are people either leaving or work part time . If you worked out the hours farmers worked compared to earnings most people would walk away

He espoused leaving hardware stores (and I assume garden centers open) so people wouldn't go mad at home constantly looking at boards coronovirus threads.
And yet ye think HE'S loosing his marbles.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
He does come across like an annoying teen with asbergers though
Not what we are used to with Irish politicians.
Nothing wrong with what he said though...
