Mick Wallace a hero, how many different shades of pink is there?

As for Ming, best speaker by a mile and the breath of fresh air the Dáil and this country needs.

And of course the Healy-Rae is supporting the government of the day.....anything to try and con his constituants that he has the ear of the Taoiseach. Sadly the Kerry people always buy into it.

He really is the worst example of small town parish-pump politics that have played a major part in the downfall of this country.

Hold on, i am no supporter of Healy Rae, and there are alot of people in Kerry who are not either, however it's hard to tell that to people who are stuck in their ways. He is an excellent TD for his constituency and that's why Mike will vote for him, because he fixed the potholes, and Mary will vote for him because of something else. He does his job remarkably well. Unfortunately these people don't realise that the current problems are national and not local and we need better people who are specialised in that area.

Also, it's not like that it's just a Kerry problem. Look at Lowry for example. Hell look at at all the informed people in the capital who gave Bertie all those votes in the last election whie he was in the middle of all the tribunals. There are TD's around all around the country who don't deserve to be, and equally, there are people all around the country who voted for them.

Well Kenny desired to get up and running from the get-go.
It appears that those in opposition against, are willing to do similar and not wait around before being frank and vocal.

Dead right! We've had too many panders to those in power and bullschitters in the past.

Him, then Shane Ross.
I'm looking forward to hearing them speak more often when they are allowed.
Should be very interesting.

Ya i thought Ming spoke really well,once the he told the hecklers to show him a bit of respect,these same hecklers are probably never going to speak in the dail only be grumbling and living the good life as a back bench TD.

True that. No mention of brian either.

Ming Flanagan came across very well today, best speaker by a mile imo.

That seems to be the general view so far and I have to agree easily.

I know, it comes across as if they don't know how to use the equipment, hilarious.

u140acro3xs7dm

They probably dont know how to use it. Didnt they have problems at the world cup last year when they didnt know how to turn the volume down from the vuvuzela yet every other station could.

Sherifu

RTE are seriously all over the shop, lol

Somebody done a coffee run..:pac:

Brian is basically now asking whats next to the camera, and then smiles and goes back to these pointless guests, who are simply talking ****e, its cringeworthy watching this.

If I remember correctly there was talk of selling RTE off, because it is costing too much . . . . . . . . wonder if they would sell it?

Healey Rae fixed the potholes!

Aye, by using his position on the council to get his company contracted to fix them.

Enda Lenny taoiseach.....

I'm off up to Glasnevin with a torch and a pitchfork to make sure Eoin O'Duffy hasn't risen from the grave yet.

Just lovin' Mick Wallace's attire...
... I could see him setting new Dáil fashion trends.

I thought that Luke 'Ming' Flanagan was an excellent speaker.

Really? The vuvuzela was on all channels that I saw. The EBU allowed you to watch coverage from all other European countries.

Mary aint going to have to touch her pensions as long as she keeps getting all these nixers from RTE and other media outlets.

Well they didn't totally shut them up, that would probably be impossible but they where noticeably louder on RTE.
