Minister for Agriculture attends 81-person golf event in breach of health guidelines

Absolute disgrace.

The only difference being that we have no video.

It's getting too funny.

Oops

Farcical.

They expect compliance and then this comes out.

They don’t care.

The pigs are at the trough.

All the problems coming from FF ministers...(And Eamon Ryan).

"We are all in this together"(tm) was always a load of me bollix.

If he doesn't go FF will be looking at 3-4% in the polls (they were on 9) The auld lads and lasses that voted for them regardless in 2011 are the ones stuck cocooning and won't appreciate this

From Gavan Reilly on twitter:

The two parallel rooms were placed in a hotel function room with a partition (the standard hotel ballroom variety), which was not drawn fully across.

Attendees have told me the partition was left partly open so that hotel staff could go between rooms to serve food, and so on.

The hotel's stance is that it wasn't one function, it was two - with 45 in one room and 36 in the next.

But I also understand that, not only was there a single table plan presented to accommodate the 81 attendees, speeches were given in one room, addressed to those in the other.

This is a ****ing joke and a blatant two fingers to everyone who has made sacrifices around the country. How did anybody there think that 1. this was a good idea or 2. that it wouldn't get out

Barry Cowan got sacked for less

It's the media's fault. How dare they report on this, the are just trying to damage SF......

OH wait.... Wrong party.......

Resignation would entail taking responsibility tho
Amazing that within a couple of months of entering Government, and Calleary actually getting the job on the foot of Cowan's avoidance of same.

That Fianna Fail are once again facing the loss of a minister for an act of personal stupidity, at odds with guidelines and actual common sense.

That Mehole has spent quite a bit of time explaining that there is nothing at all confusing about the new guidelines, nor the return to school protocols.

Makes Calleary's position untenable IMO.
He has to go.

Imagine making such a bollox of there 1st few months in Government that they are making the last FG tenure seem like the golden past!
FFS like!

Apparently they split the room in two! So like a hall with a partition pulled across the middle, 45 in one part of the room and 36 in the other..but the partition was not fully closed and speeches were held in one of the rooms

..... and they all laughed merrily at the rest of us. '

It’s very obvious the tail is wagging the dog in the chewing gum government that we have.
But then fail with the failures, bluster from the gaels and the greens are exactly that green.....

I think there’s an utter lack of discipline amongst the TDs and TBH it’s very telling of the “leadership” of their party......, bodes very poorly indeed.
