    Anyone see the referendum posters picture on page 16 of this week's News & Star? Think it was not proof read by them before they went to press!!! Must be a photoshopped photo that they used. Someone will be in trouble for it been published, I'd say.

    I heard that Enda Kenny wanted that text originally, but FG's €100k-per-year spin doctors persuaded him to tone it down a bit.

    It's in the paper guys!

    Obviously the picture editor there just downloaded that pic, and didn't notice that it was a joke picture!

    Oops!

    Whoever wrote the accompanying text would probably have sourced the picture.

    But ultimately, it's the editor who signs off on all pages (or should, at least)

    I saw it, and then read the article to see of there was a joke going, seems not,

    I had a chuckle, its fairly right as it stands, no doubt someone will get a rap on the knuckles for that one, and the fine gael press office will be kicking themselves that they didn't think of it :)

    p.s. its about the only piece of information about the referendum that i have understood so far
