    Why are Irish people the biggest shower of bandwagon jumpers in the world?

    It really bugs me that certain people are trying to hijack what will probaby be the highlight of Katie Taylors sporting career (assuming she wins which is by no means guaranteed). They are basking in the reflected glory of someone else' hard work and dedication. The majority know little or nothing about boxing and will continue to ignore when the olympics are over

    Is this just the irish? Every football team in the world will get a bigger demand for tickets for a cup final or the big home games.
    Success and higher level = more supporters in every sport across the globe.

    I am sure she does. It just bugs me that people who neither know anything about boxing nor know her personally act as though they do.

    The HSE complaint to the broadcasting authority concerned Liveline programmes broadcast on January 19th and 20th where the focus was on the termination of Ms Bayliss’s contract.

    The HSE complained that the two Liveline programmes “incorrectly and unfairly” gave the impression that the HSE had put pressure on the advocacy network to end Ms Bayliss’s contract and that this was in response to statements by her on a previous Liveline programme in December 2011 about treatment of patients at St Brendan’s hospital.

    It accused the programme of giving the HSE insufficient time to respond on January 19th, of being in breach of its obligations where corroborating facts and taking the HSE view into account were concerned, and accused presenter Joe Duffy of showing bias.

    On July 30th the BAI compliance committee upheld the HSE complaints while pointing out that it was not its role to adjudicate on whether there was in fact a relationship between the ending of Ms Bayliss’s contract and the roles and functions of the network and the HSE. However it concluded the programme had not been “fair, objective and impartial to all interests” in its treatment of the issue.

    Again, a daily occurrence on show. When is that new broadcasting code due to be enacted ?

    We know that sane individuals don't go on 'The Joe Duffy show' for a reasoned debate.

    Joe would be all "whoiy?, whoiy?, whoiy?" etc.
