    Ah booo! That said if they did pull the plug they would have done so 7 months too late. Sounds like Tom Parlon has talked McDowell round. Tom Parlon *boggles*

    I don't believe the interview on Sky will be live, if the PD's don't pull out now they will be left looking very silly imo, FF may actually make gains from this yet.

    Who can go into coalition with FF before this is dealt with fully without looking desperate to grab some power?

    The conference has begun.

    Lots of correct words about accountability but they are staying.

    Mike.

    McDowell wants a "credible public statement" from Ahern.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 51 ✭✭NewsWire


    Pd's to stay in government. but McDowell wants a Bertie to make a statement before the election to clear up all this whoohaa.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,995 ✭✭✭✭Wishbone Ash


    "No useful service by reducing Govt to one party now".

    "radically different account" from what he was initially told.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,995 ✭✭✭✭Wishbone Ash


    Will Sky News' Adam Boulton be aware of this Press Conference before interviewing him at 11.05am?


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,944 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    So looks like McDowell has setup Dobson for another tearful interview to save Bertie again.

    Will Sky News' Adam Boulton be aware of this Press Conference before interviewing him at 11.05am?

    Sure, Sky will have a feed someone will be watching.

    Is this because they have no values or because being nice to FF is the only way they will get into power?

    No sign of Adam Boulton asking questions about current 'money' controversies, only covering 'Northern Ireland'.....

    From Rottweilers to Poodle now to Chihuahua to transformation of the so-called Government watchdogs is complete.....

    Weak questions from Boulton, despite the real news scrolling across the bottom of the screen! Come on now!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,978 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Give him a moment, the reason he's on is to talk NI, Boulton can ambush Bertie right at the end!

    Mike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,476 ✭✭✭✭Our man in Havana
