FrancieBrady

Boxing himself into the corner. Just admit it Leo, you used it as an elect me stunt.

Lady Chatterton

For the love of God, will someone please take the shovel off Leo. Talk about digging a massive hole for himself.

mikeybrennan

Leo fighting back

Atlantic Dawn

Where were you last Saturday night when I wanted to slag you over the hurling?

I'd not be a fan of the left in this country but the more leo talks the more I want to vote left .... I won't though

JMNolan

People use this phrase about leo representing the people who get up in the morning to knock him but I'm thrilled we finally have someone who claims to represent people who work instead of people who don't

Lady Chatterton

I'd like Fionnan & Vinny to kiss and make up tomorrow night

Atlantic Dawn

Vinny hoping for some gems from the Twitter Machine.

I was drowning my sorrows Joe Ye need to sort out yer full back line and if ye do, ye have a great chance of retaining yer title.

Atlantic Dawn

I'd like to see BurgerLand reopened and 99's to be resized to their 1980's greatness...

Perhaps I need inverted commas around the word morning?

JMNolan

Everything is a crisis to Vincent. Sure we have a Vincent crisis too after tomorrow night

Agreed. We need Darren Gleeson back too. 3 goals let in. We'll chat again. Don't want to derail the thread.

I thought Leo would get a mauling from Vinny but so far it hasn't happened.

gizmo81

Interesting about Enda not responding to Leo's ideas for health and subsequently moving him.

Didn't need to Vinny gave him enough rope

FrancieBrady

Vinny letting him away with trite spin IMO. I can sense a bevvy of handlers in the background.

Leo's request for money

Not sure if that casts him in a positive light

JMNolan

I'm tearing up lads

Atlantic Dawn

They will need some exit music for Vin departing tomorrow.

sligojoek

The whole thing is very mild. Bit like 2 lads having a chat in the pub

Roger_007

Result of the interview:-
Leo 1, Vinny 0.

technocrat

Bit of a lovein session really

Lady Chatterton

'We don't want to see men and women getting married'

Because Leo is talking sense...the man wants to give people more welfare invest in public services and tax reliefs...

donfers

Roger_007

Marie Louise likes the young fellas?

sligojoek

No criticism of Leo from MLOD. Quelle suprise.

That would be like Mary Lou criticising Gerry Adams..........doesn't happen in politics!

donfers

We needed a no-nonsense type on the panel like Hook or Dunphy or even Yates to tell Vinny he went too easy on Leo

Atlantic Dawn

Any ideas who is on tomorrow nights show?

Lady Chatterton

This is my final clip of the evening....

It's from Vincent's People's Debate from Co. Clare back in 2015. I was in the audience, it was my birthday and I got to chat with Vinny.... I was thrilled :D

The guy talking in this clip is a retired CIE Bus Driver, he is real character, I went to school with one of his sons.

Why weren't the people moaning that E100 dole for under 25s wasn't enough for travellers because "they marry earlier than settled people" called out on this, getting married and popping out kids is a choice, can't afford em use a condom.

The fella saying ambulance personnel didn't call to his house, instead parking down the driveway a bit should have been asked why and also why Gardai had to be present.

Galwayguy35 wrote:

The mother and daughter looking for the council (taxpayer in other words) to do up the houses with the graffiti on them and no doors or windows should have been asked how they got in this state considering they were only built in 2001. I'd reckon the reason refuse companies told them they won't collect the rubbish is because they know they would never be paid for doing the job. Sure it's easier to let it pile up until the council eventually clear it for free.

My thoughts exactly. His refusal to ask such clear and obvious questions belies his worth as a journalist whose job is to get to the truth of matters. Instead we ended up with a sentimental piece on a culture at odds with the mainstream. It seems everything is the fault of everyone else. What are the reasons there are no bin collections on that site? Why do police have to be called? Why marry so young without having an education? Why have so many kids at such a young age? Why doesn't that young man in dunsink lane drive a car? Simple, straightforward questions.

It must be years since I watched Vincent before last night ... it was never as entertaining for me after Fianna Fáil and the IMF left the stage and I found myself shouting at Vincent, not the guests.

But back in the day it was great, eloquent economists and commentators coming on every night informing us of the approaching menace of the meltdown and the meddling IMF ... and Vincent had a great skill of giving hot young female journalists some exposure on Television

This was a great thread in those days, lots of great posters passed through ... (and some are still here!). Then there was the Spin Off 'Friday Late with Vincent Browne' where he interviewed Jedward on the first night ... and some nights he would extend the show until 1am just for the hell of it.

A truely Groundbreaking show that will be remembered and I hope Vincent stays healthy and pops up again somewhere soon.

I thought TV3 news said it was an all female panel tonight and showed the 4 clips ^^ CL, JB etc as a tribute to the show.
So expect a total babefest from Irish politics.
