The Pat Kenny Show

My vision for that monument is de eloping in my mind's eye. An elegant slightly slanting titanium pole supporting at the top a representation of the Children of Lir flying out over the bay. If I were bothered to put in the effort I could draw the vision, but that could take hours of time. From an airplane you would be looking down on the three swans flying out past you as you approach from the east.

brave of them still to admit their foolishness live on air. I probably wouldn't.


Apparently they didn't even give their bank details..... the scammers remotely accessed their computer while they were on the phone with some sophisticated softwear and that way accessed their bank details! :eek:

I am tech savy and very cynical about any investment scams but I say fair play to that woman for highlighting how badly she and her husband were stung - 130K!!!

Donnelly the king of bluster and waffle

He thinks some woman on an airline check-in counter at an airport in Spain will look for proof of an isolation hotel booking in Ireland before the person is let on a plane.

I'm almost getting to a stage where I am nearly feeling sorry for him now as opposed to feeling sorry for the Irish public who have him as Health Minister.

Its not sophisticated software.

You enter Team Viewer into google, click on a section on that website and tell the person on the phone what the codes on the screen are. They then have remote access to your device.

Pat really throwing the info at Donnelly. I would imagine he's like a deer in the headlights

First thing Donnelly will do after this interview is change his jocks

Donnelly: No one has all of the answers

Kenny should reply with "Ireland doesn't seem to have any of the answers"

That wasn't fair. Ireland had way worse numbers in first wave when Harris was in charge. The only reason we are somewhere around Germany is because Germans and many other Central European countries caught up with us or overtaken us over the winter. If you do comparison our measures were effective second half of the year and absolute disaster in Spring. Europe was open during the summer because they got out way better out of first wave.

Is it really necessary to call everyone you dislike/disagree with a fool or a dick?

Oh dear...

I like walking but I never felt the need to be all poetic about it.

Yes, I could call them all far worse and given that we've all been locked down for the last year I think I'm being restrained.

Its safe. But funny.

But well done for not clicking it.


I work as a security consultant and a few years ago was tasked with doing a phishing test for a company. I crafted a well looking email seemingly from a well known Irish bank and had a system to check how many people clicked the link, who they were etc. I compiled the information, put it into a report and submitted it. They were very happy with the results but said that a senior Sales Executive had made a complaint about me. In his view, he should have been made aware of the phishing test, so that he would know not to click the link.

I wanted to say back that every fecking day is a phishing test and he should treat it thus.

No, but you might get a laugh.

I have more phish tails tales if anyone is interested?

Stephen Donnelly didn't seem to have heard about this new vaccine being developed in France that Pat spoke about. If there is one, then he should have known.

He also corrected Pat by saying that the production factory that Boris Johnson visited in Scotland was Italian. It's not.

Yeah, it's a bit like saying google.ie is an Irish search engine.

Against my better judgement I decided to listen to the Donnelly interview on my walk, sweet suffering baby jebus! What I would like to actually say would mean I'd have to ban myself or get one of the other radio mods to do it! He is an "$$%$£"*%£$%("£$("£$*%£$&^$£&**%"$*£$%*$£%* and breathe! The only redeeming factor was that Pat sounded as exasperated as me, it is just soul destroying that a "£$£"$&£""£$*&*"%^$&"$&$&^ like him has that brief, he's an out and out spoofer. I will actively canvas for anyone running against him in the next election, he cannot be voted back in. One plus was I walked really fast as if he was chasing me so every cloud

meeeeh

I think criticism of Donnelly is valid, he did mess up few issues. What I don't get is why is Harris so popular. We had one of the worst springs in EU. Zero Covid crowd keep on banging about how we almost have 0 cases. Large part of Europe actually had 0 cases and they had bigger mess in Winter. Comparatively Ireland did way better in winter. This is not just about ministers and governments ir health advisers but I'm starting to believe Irish success is measured not by how well we do internationally in general but how we do in comparison to Brits.

I think Harris got a bit of a pass last year cause the whole world was struggling and fighting for the limited ppe etc. I think Donnelly has such an arrogant tone and manner that it just makes his waffle and prepared sound bites all the worse. Only Howlin has ever wound me up like Donnelly, same self serving little sleeveen.

I remember when he was appointed some political correspondent said words to the effect of "Stephen Donnelly used to be a management consultant. And he will remind you of that fact".

Doesn't say much for management consultants ...
