TONIGHT With Vincent Browne

imme · 2010-01-13 23:10:33

What do you make of the TV3 show Tonight With Vincent Brown. He gets a tough time on the Politics threads on Boards as being mad left wing. Some of them are right to extreme right-wing. Anyone watch it?

Can you give us a break please. Your views on Norris lack a lot of credibility given your many comments about RTE presenters and their sexuality

For once, could you argue with my points instead of simply branding me as homophobic? And I think people should be made aware of your own views, which tbh I was shocked with..

What would you think of a 40 year old man dating - and having sex with - a girl studying for her junior cert?

That's not for me to say. I generally think that 15 year olds can make their own minds up about having sex.

You're easily shocked.

Yes 15 year olds have sex. Did you not you have sex when you were 15?

You've made numerous, numerous comments about RTE presenters and made casual homophobic comments about Norris. So excuse me for disregarding your views on Norris, you aren't coming to the debate with "clean hands".

As far as I know, Fergus Finlay said that he wouldn't run as independent when he didn't get the Labour nomination - would it be impossible for him to reconsider, and give the two fingers to the Labour party?

Did I hear last night that D Norris will be presenting the VB show tonight? The announcer could have been talking sh1t too.

On the presidency, I wouldn't be voting for any of the party candidates, sick of them:(

Poor Fearghal sounds terribly nervous!

He already has his own programme, so you'd think he wouldn't be so bad. I guess this is live though..

If Feargal Quinn can present it, I demand that Francis Brennan should have a go too. he'd be brilliant.

I feel like I should be annoyed by Francis Brennan, but I'm not. I'd certainly watch if he was presenting!

How come theres only two people on the panel?

Some nights we get five.

Although I'm happy enough, seeing as Margaret E Ward is in the house.

Why dont they send Fergal in to Spain, Italy, Portugal and Greece, and sort them out like he does on his show... Maybe all that Greece needs is to advertise or put a lick of pain on the shopfront..

Taxi for Feargal, and let Margaret E present the rest of the show.

He looks terrified.

I feel sorry for him.. He's a good guy, and he's trying very hard to keep it together.. I think Frances Brennan would be brilliant on the show.. They should have given him a run..

I actually think he'd be good if he could lose the nerves.
