    Yep.. He was crowding the camera behind Micheal Martin or some such and proceeded to fall off the podium they were standing on

    Was that the David Davin power interview with the lads behind him looking like they'd been on the lash for most of the preceding 48 hours ?

    Yes, he was the one who bizarrely fell through a trapdoor in this already-bizarre deleted scene from Deliverance.


    That is brilliant, I love the way he hops up facing the wrong away around and does a lightning 180. The guy in the front left is struggling to stay awake

    Looks like she's the sister of Roz and some other useless waster brother who frequents reality tv. She used to be a socialite but obviously she's too old for that craic now so has to fill her time with something else.

    To give an example of the common touch the Lipsett family has here is an excerpt from Roz on her blog:

    http://rosalind.ie/category/lifestyle/

    "My sister Sarah had a baby four months before me so her and I decided to have a joint christening. Amelia wore a little faux fur shawl and a tulle dress. Theodore looked incredibly handsome in a little white satin…"

    Mother, where's my crown?!

    I saw a poster for Siomha Ní Aonghusa of PBP which was one of the better ones

    She is also available for Childrens TV presenting, here's her showreel in which she sings a song that tells kids cleaning is fun.

    I can’t tell how depressing it feels, to be facing into a future where i have no hope of ever owning a home

    I thought PBP were opposed to private ownership of property?

    Ah yes Sarah Lipsett who was a director of a nursing home her mother owned in Rathgar. Her mother got struck off the nurses register for the abuse towards elderly residents that was going on behind closed doors
    https://www.independent.ie/opinion/analysis/controversy-a-world-away-from-sisters-glamorous-life-26741686.html
    Controversy a world away from sisters' glamorous life
    The Lipsetts are more used to the glitz of the society pages rather than the harsh glare of the headlines

    THE Lipsett girls are the glamorous offspring of Robert and Therese Lipsett, owners of Rostrevor, the nursing home in Dublin's Rathgar, which was at the centre of sensational allegations of abuse of it's elderly residents, last week.
    Representatives of all things stylish and opulent, the three sisters were seen as fashionistas whose images burned brightly on the social diary pages each week.
    In their expensive clothes, with perfectly manicured manes, the south Dublin girls lived the high-octane lifestyle, frequenting events like the VIP Style Awards, the Punchestown Races and the A-list haunt Residence.

    Mother-of-four Therese Lipsett, 58, is a trained nurse who was struck off the register last year. She is also a director of a budget accommodation hotel in Dublin city centre.

    She was diagnosed with cancer three years ago.

    Two of her daughters, Avila and Roz, spoke to the Sunday Independent LIFE magazine in 2008, describing their upbringing in their €4m Zion Road home in the salubrious setting of Rathgar."Our parents really gave us everything that they could. We went to private schools. If we were crap at subjects, grinds were paid for. We were kinda privileged," said one sister.
    The three girls initially attended Loreto College, St Stephen's Green, while in later years Sarah and Avila left for Our Lady's School in Rathnew, Co Wicklow, to sit their Leaving Certs.

    Sarah, 31, a director of Rostrevor nursing home along with her sister Avila, studied economics in University College Dublin. In 2008 Sarah was put on the roll of solicitors at the Law Society of Ireland. She went on to work as a
    trainee solicitor with Lennon Heather and more recently as a summation legal executive with Matheson Ormsby Prentice (MOP).She no longer works with MOP and her company, Sarah Lipsett & Company Solicitors, is now registered at 16 Zion Road in Rathgar.

    In 2008 Sarah was due to tie the knot with Roches Stores heir Clive Roche, but the couple decided to go their separate ways in the immediate lead-up to the wedding.

    I decided to click on that link- the lady is semi literate.
    Also her 'manifesto' just consists of catch all, "everything is wrong but I'll sort it" nonsense.

    They're not opposed to it. They want it to be more affordable for working people.

    There's some serious amount of tarting up and airbrushing going on with respect to the election posters festooning our lamposts up and down the land at the moment.

    On a couple of occasions, I saw a poster where I thought "hmmm, he/she looks really attractive" (I know...I'm sooo shallow :D) but when I googled their names they barely resemble the faces on their election posters.

    Her response to social housing "Make it more attractive to home owners to rent their homes or a room in their homes. Offer tax incentives."

    Reward the people with multiple properties or people can welcome the long term unemployed into their homes!!

    Haughey has brainwashed her, everything is tax incentives, does she want all workers to pay more tax.

    The answer to everything is tax incentives- I just cant believe that noone else has thought of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy


    Tell you what, I think there's a great argument to seriously regulate the shyte, or even completely outlaw these feckin posters completely, they're an absolute eyesore and a blight on the landscape.

    FG and FF in particular have the place absolutely saturated with them, can't drive a hundred metres without seeing one of their airbrushed goons smiling from a poster.

    Ban them all to fcuk

    FF really do put some money into their posters.

    Locally, I'd say the main FF guy for the local council has easily 10 times more than the FG guy. Easily. Its likely more.
