    Joke. Ireland Inc. For sale to the highest bid.


    And if you are GB, or anyone really with a lot of money:

    Step 1: Throw toys out of the pram when you don't get your way
    Step 2: Say "ah c'maaaan" and other emotional bargaining tools. Mention the economy and jobs and all that.
    Step 4: ?????
    Step 5: Profit

    Having the country's meeja behind you helps a lot too.

    100% serious.

    Thousands traipsing in and out of the O2 for five consecutive nights to see that fecking eejit, when the cement is barely dry on the Dublin Port Tunnel??

    It's only asking for trouble.
    You can file an injunction. I know a guy who'll no longer need his new suit! :D

    Predict Garth's site is going to crash and burn under the intense load from the Irish media as soon as he starts that livestream.

    We should all do it through here.

    This is absolutely farcical at this stage.

    A bunch of poxy country and western gigs and everyone goes mental. This country is a ****ing ****hole. I can't wait to see the protests about actual things that matter.

    What kind of material do they want for their new suit? How about concrete?

    I hope Enda Kenny has the good grace to ring Garth Brooks and apologise. I also suggest a civic reception, and maybe a freedom of the city? He should also be put forward as our ambassador to the Vatican.

    Why would he apologise, there are hundreds of thousands if not millions of people who agree with him (basing that on the fact loads of people not going really think the concerts should go ahead).

    If these gigs go ahead its bloody brilliant, people power corruption at its finest and has restored my faith in politicians being able to get things done!

    FYP

    Absolute joke. Not a single politician who has had any part in the complete disregard for our laws will be getting a vote from me. Some things never change. Once money is to be made, planning law and regulation counts for nothing in Ireland. Hope Kenny is happy with himself.

    Sorting out these concerts will get mine and probably hundreds of thousands of votes for the people involved.

    You actually don't deserve a vote if you are basing your opinion on a concert.

    Luckily they did nothing to sort out the concerts, so you won't have to vote for them.

    So it looks like common sense might prevail and the good guys might actually win with the concerts going ahead in the end.. Good win for the people of Ireland if so

    Well done Government or whoever the hell it was sorted it in the end

    Depends what the actual win is. Just having the concerts and pretending nothing happened is a lose for everyone except those who financially benefited from this.

    Well it mightn't be the deciding factor in a vote but why wouldn't I give my vote to a party who did something that benefited me. Its how most people decide on their vote.

    400,000 people think the same as him it's safe to say.

    If they go ahead Dublin will make millions in revenue, the residents have backed the gigs and yet some of ye here are still whinging about it.

    This is why we need IQ tests before allowing people a vote.

    For sure, the whole process should be straightened out to ensure this never happens again, after these gigs happen and the money is saved/made and the 400,000 get to keep their plans. No one will disagree there.
