    Cooper and Yates showing the gambling addict no sympathy at the moment. I dont condone what he did but i do honestly think it is an illness. Without letting him off the hook, there is virtually no governance or legislation on gambling advertising which is omnipresent in society today.

    It's one of these absolute worst addictions, because it's almost purely mental. There's nothing physical going into the body, like alcohol or heroin. Although there are physical internal processes going on.

    But, it's your mind teling you that the next one is the big one.

    How do you combat that?

    I wouldn't give a tinkers cuss what Yates has to say on the subject either. Someone who made a living, leaching off of gamblers, until he blew it all himself.

    Joan Burton spoofing rubbish once again. The PSC cards cleaned up the social welfare offices, Jaysus wept.

    Iphone Joan is back on, a sure sign of how the standards have dropped on this show since VB retired.

    Not sure if anyone saw the show last night. Have to say i thought what happened to MHR was an absolute disgrace.

    Essentially, the debate was about the Facebook controversy when while MHR was speaking, Matt suddenly turned the conversation to abortion and some comments Danny made in the Dail that evening.

    While the comments attributed to Danny certainly did not sound great, it just stank of the pure animosity that the show and indeed its' presenters have against the Healy Rae's to blindside Michael like that. Abortion was not a topic of conversation and about as far removed from the discussion at hand as you cound think. I sincerely doubt that would have happened to any other guest on the show.

    Not defending any comments at all that were made just what happened last night.

    Pretty typical behavior by Cooper. Permanently irritated, small minded and irritable. And a big, big earner.

    Ads for this are a laugh, makes out a big fight between ivan yates and matt cooper in the ad.....to make out they'll actively disagree and challenge each other on the show, yet to see one difference of opinion between them!

    That horror in the red dickie bow knows she is losing control because of social media

    Pretty much. One of the greatest things about social media is that Terry Prone doesn't understand it, and can't manipulate it the way she's been given free reign to manipulate print and broadcast media.

    Much more balanced debate than Prime Time. But that wouldn't have been difficult in fairness

    I think there will need to be a permit system where each of the couple will need to text their parents for a permission slip for de ride, it's going in that direction.

    Someone generally doesn't voluntarily go to someones bedroom twice with the sole intention of playing chess.

    It's getting to the stage that a dashcam on your bed might save you from a court case.

    Funny how neither O'Doherty nor Boylan believe that toxic masculinity is real, and yet they've spent the last half hour trying to dominate the discussion by behaving like a pair of pub bores, constantly interrupting and boorishly shouting everyone else down.

    Unfortunately, by citing the un-thinking man's academic Jordan Peterson as an authority, Ian O'Doherty unwittingly reinforced his own point.

    Well, if today's women look up to people like Louise O'Neil what does that say about them?

    The whole idea of #ibelieveher is actually counter factual, like a flat earth or creationism, not that any feminist will own up to it.

    What's wrong with Jordan Peterson?

    that toxic masculinity is real.


    Doesn't exist made up term by feminists to try suggest masculinity is inherently bad and if let run riot can turn toxic. Utter bollioxlogy

    Its quite amazing how these same feminists would have nothing to say about the rape and brutalisation that certain cultures endure their women too and if any one challenged them they would counter it by suggesting that the challenger was racist and ignorant. These same useless clowns didnt have much to say about Rotherham, Rochdale or Telford where thousands of girls were exploited but a few Whatsapp messages between four meatheads and all of a sudden there is a problem with all men? :rolleyes:

    People like you literally only (pretend to) care about those cases of child abuse and rape in the UK because of the perpetrators being members of an ethnic group that you happen to hate.

    Ah on the defence i see without mounting any form of proper argument :rolleyes: wouldnt expect any more from you. Its the default position of the lefties when they are not running and crying victim.

    I have no shame in stating that i hate anyone who would brutalise a woman or child in the name of their ideology.

    I must be more like your 3rd wave feminists then i think. People who only care about womens rights until there is clear ACTUAL clear cases of violation of not just women, but children. Then they run a mile like the weak cowards they are.

    I'm fairly sure you wouldn't give a damn about the abuse cases in the UK, but for the fact that you hate Muslims even more than you hate women.
