    ffs, I turned off that creep Brendan Keenan, him who predicted that the bank's losses would be about 5%... only to go back to RTE to hear Austin Hughes, who predicted a soft landing... It's seems that broadcasters have a shorter memory than the markets..

    well the HSE and the advocacy network had their chance to come on the show and put their side of the story across, but "nobody was available".

    f*ck em!


    I doubt the person who answered the HSE switchboard had any idea what the researcher was on about. And those who did were probably unavailable to go looking through correspondence in preparation for a nonsense discussion as they most likely had real work to keep themselves busy.

    I was being sarcastic pointing out that HSE staff aren't all that sane.

    The complaint and findings will be read out at some stage during the show.

    As far as I know Liveline does not have to apologise, although I think they should.

    Speaking as the voice of experience, the HSE will very rarely provide a spokesperson to comment on anything. Their usual line is "We'll get someone to get back to you" and then silence.

    No mention of it, no mention of his mistake, no personal apology (as it was a mistake by HIM alone)... The fkn arrogance of it all. It's not just Tubridy, the whole lot of them in there are living in Wonkaland.

    So all the people who work for the state at a reasonably high level are well off, and the rest are poor... Tell me how it's different from Ireland again?

    Because the rest of us that don't work for the state at a reasonably high level aren't all poor.
