will people like her not be exempt?

Lapin

So he name drops the Taoiseach in the midst of his outrage but then says all he did was lick his arse when he met him.

"I have no more money to give"

did she not say that she was in receipt of money from the state?

Harry Angstrom

"Do you have Sky Sports?"

ThisRegard

My Sky bill Joe.

Dublin_Mom

Lone parent.....always wonder where the 'other parent' is and why they are not coughing up...

Oh hold on, why should they, sure I am paying for her and her 'lone child'

Roger_007

Sounds like she doesn't want to pay for anything!

Mike Guide 69

Conspiracy, she broke up when he mentioned the bins!!!!

CountyHurler

I've never heard Joe say... "And what about your TV license, how do you pay for that... How do you pay my 250 grand a year, how do you save up the coppers for that"...

mickydoomsux

This guy is an idiot. His arguments are paper thin and can be blown out of the water with even the most rudimentary fact checking.

The stench of entitlement so far today is a terrible reflection on the general public. They seem to think the government is a magic ATM that exists only to give out free money that's generated from thin air.

Caller" I'm broke Joe, I have had to resort to ordering my weekly shopping online from Tesco Joe"
Joe " How do you do that?"

We need a proper Child Support Agency in this country. It's about time the feckless fathers coughed up the money to support their kid/s.

Lapin

Hurry up Briget.

Lapin

Heart trouble now too.

sudzs

Some of them have husbands. :rolleyes:

AK333

You pay for what you use Mrs - if you have a rake of kids you can't afford, and a smoker's cough - if you use it, you pay for it - that's more equitable than a flat rate, which single parents wouldn't pay probably anyway

Harry Angstrom

WHAT??

AK333

Water charges are in excess of AUD$1,000 each year - its built into the rent, you don't pay it as a tenant

AK333

He is talking nonsense, I had a house in Australia, the rates are colossal

Harry Angstrom

Making plans for Nigel.

Dan Jaman

Some people are after turning this place into a little Germany, right enough.

Yes He is talking through his hole, typical caller with little or no knowledge of what he is complaining about.

sudzs

Has there been any mention yet about whether or not people will be liable for any leaks between the meter and their tap? Because that is the case in the UK, big problem if you get a leak.

pc7

Why don't I believe that Moll is hilarious

Just as well the Guards won't be subjected to water charges, with all the leaks coming from Garda HQ you could pay Joes wages

CountyHurler

Ryanair... what a shocker..

Joe's salary works out at roughly €1600 per show.

Already today he has earned enough to pay the €250 water charge 3 times.

I heard on the radio, a good few weeks ago from someone at Irish Water (???), that leaks in the street are their responsibility, and leaks from the road/meter to your taps are the owners/water users responsibility.

FourFourRED

I love when people call in making statements that aren't true and know nothing about what they're talking about. It's those kind of people that make up the majority of the "Ireland says No!" protests to everything. No clue what they are on about.

CountyHurler

Joe, they didnt change the whole planet to the way that I wanted it... Who does this lad think he is, Vladimir Putin?

swingking

No SNICKERS for Joe on the plane so !

Lapin

This call has just reminded me to test my smoke alarms.

lucylu

caller fix the battery in your fire alarm

SEPT 23 1989

ban snickers from all commercial flights:rolleyes:

AK333

I thought they had stopped selling peanuts on airlines. I flew from Australia last year and they weren't available on Emirates/Eithad (can't remember which)

NIMAN

So 175 people aren't allowed to eat a Snickers cos this guy is allergic?

Maybe he should not fly?

SEPT 23 1989

could he not wear a gas mask instead?

Lapin

What an arrogant arsehole of a caller.

If he wasn't on it, it would be a nut-free aircraft.:rolleyes:

FourFourRED

Hold on, is he allergic to being around peanuts? The smell of them or what? I just assumed it was when you ate them.
