    exactly and no doubt the rest of the week will be spent on it, and unfortunately for them, at the end of friday, they'll be forgotton about.

    Locked up for shouting.

    The place must be full of Liveline callers.

    "its the 21st century and they have a locked ward and a padded cell"

    Well, what is the alternative? Its a mental hospital.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,774 ✭✭✭Big Daddy Cool


    he went to campsite, then he went to A+E and because he said he was staying in a tent, he got put into a locked ward, now maybe i'm wrong but i think thats not the whole story.

    How many billions do we pour in to our Health Service every year? How much has that budget increased by in the last 10 years? By a massive amount anyway. My point is this; is money and resources the problem in our health service or is it the distribution of money and resources? If the budget was doubled there would be little improvement I'd bet. Just higher wages.

    Probably why it's called the Health Service Executive - it's full of high salary management pen pushers.

    the only people that ramble and rant about the stigma of mental illness are the bores that dwell on it

    get over yourselves

    "Are you still in the Labour party"

    "Er... errr....."

    Could she not remember or what?

    Mae Sexton is a political opportunist,formerly of the PD's and was in Fianna Faíl before that. She has nothing to add to ANY discussion.

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 31,117 ✭✭✭✭snubbleste


    She clearly does not believe in equality of the sexes
    a woman minister, 5 women..women, woman

    Wonder if it had been five male patients, would we hear about this at all?

    Sean Gallagher. Presidential hopeful. Remember him?

    I don't see what being 'a woman' minister has got to do with anything.

    That explains her confusion as to her current affiliation...she probably had to look at her diary.

    Assuming all mental illness is the result of weakness or drug abuse. Evidence enough of a stigma there.

    I'd prefer not to see your contempt for the mentally ill go unchallenged. What's worse is you showed yourself too cowardly even to clarify what you were implying in your "pussies" post. And then you object to the very existence of a stigma your posts themselves are evidence of.

    jesus lads how many days has he been covering this topic ?

    Well it only became an issue at the end of Fridays programme so its not even 2 and a half days, but its awful dreary depressing stuff altogether.

    To be honest, if it were not for this thread I would have given up by now.

    Pull the other one would you - if RTE switched to somebody like Damo "the Plank" O'Reilly on a permanent basis the show would nosedive. Damo shouldn't be allowed near a serious programme of any sort, for God's sake he even managed to wreck "Farm Week" and metamorphose it into some sort of GAA gig now titled "Countrywide".

    Yes, Joe Duffy has an agenda, unlike most in RTE whose only one appears to be filling their own pockets while lecturing the rest of us e.g. Mammy and Pat Kenny, the fact that he is well paid is irrelevant when it comes to judging the show's popularity and content. Joe Duffy has been an activist with an agenda since his student union days and the country would be better off with more like him. Why don't some of you ring in next week and tackle him head on about the show and its content? Be sure to give us advance warning! :D
    I can't believe this utter shyte. The problem with this country is that we have too many people like Joe Duffy. Overpaid mé feíners. Your comment about the shows ratings taking a nosedive if Joe left; has no basis in fact, whatsoever. Joe Duffy also isn't fit to lace Pat Kenny's shoes in brodacasting terms.Duffy is lazy and does zero research, Kenny is the opposite,like him or not.
    It's no wonder this country is so fcuked when there are so many people willing to kow tow and bend over to defend the likes of Joe Duffy. There are people out there who still defend Haughey. It's a peasant mentality, the idea that some people are the their betters and should be looked up to. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence or education owes those very priveleges that have been given to them to look at things with a more critical eye than you are in this post.
    The last thing this country needs is more people like Joe Duffy:mad:
