    Can someone just shut him up once and for all.

    Does he ever stop and think about what he is saying and doing.

    He really is his own worst enemy at this stage.

    Should we guess what he said or is there a context coming?

    People complain when the say they'll bring in water charges and people complain when they say they will delay bringing them in.

    I think people just like to complain

    His blast on the radio yesterday about water charge start dates in start of 2014

    Hes then hung out to dry today by both Gilmore and Noonan on the water meters being delayed and water charges not being introduced at the start of 2014.

    Now Hogan is suddenly back tracking this evening on RTE News over his radio comments.

    He really is his own worst enemy.:rolleyes:

    I heard it on Friday. I don't think he was having a blast.

    Don't see what the fuss is about, electoral advantage trumps any minister and with the full year property tax due next January, they were always going to look for an excuse to avoid bringing in the new water tax until after the local elections next year(so not having enough meters fitted will serve as a suitable excuse). They then hope that the gullible voters won't remember the property tax that they were hit with just a few months beforehand and similarly won't recall the new water tax that they will face, once voting is over.

    It would serve them right if all three water tax parties(FG, Labour and FF(they proposed its introduction to the troika)), lost heavily in the local elections in affected areas of the country.

    He's the most big mouthed arrogant prick I think has ever been part of a government in this country. I cannot stand him. Regardless of the performance of anyone else, he's the one person I'd happily see getting the boot without a single penny or golden pension.

    You can tell everytime he opens his mouth he has no concern for the people he governs. Infact contempt oozes from him.

    aaah, what hasn't he done? big Phil's been everywhere and done everything

    well anywhere worth going to and anything worth doing...the man is a template for the ideal life and someone for the ordinary man in the street to doff his cap to and for his children to look up at thinking someday, maybe someday I can be just like Phil Hogan....Phil Hogan , the man , the legend.
