    The travellers will be handpicked too but Margaret Casey and the endless coverage she got will be hard to recover from. The father of her children got no coverage st all. RTE will fill the studio with inoffensive female travellers who will talk about how hard life is for young travellers.
    Its all so predictable.

    LOL :D:D:D:D:D

    Yeah but Casey is well aware of it too. He is a good speaker and he must be confident he can hold his own.
    The more airtime he gets the more support hevwill get too if he comes across even close to sane.



    Unfortunately Peter Casey is NOT a good speaker.

    If he was he'd be absolutely lethal! I hope he goes and gets some training in public speaking and becomes more articulate. I am 100% in support of his ideas, I'm against the PC madness that shuts down freedom of thought and freedom of speech. I gave him my No 2 vote as I supported him but don't think he was presidential material. He can improve and should have enough advisors around him to help him do just that.
    Go Peter :)

    Don’t shoot the messenger .

    Sorry, meant CASH.
    If she isnt invited on she will turn up with the megaphone anyway.
    It would be fab if she refused to leave RTE and made up beds fir the angles in the canteen.
    RTE would be dialling Donnybrook Garda station immediately.

    Murder is Murder and they are linked to more recent killings of gardai and the shielding of criminals from justice

    SF/IRA are still one of the major crime organisations in this county between protection rackets and drug dealing, large scale frauds. plant thefts, running doors in night clubs and pubs.

    you can be fairly sure no gardai will vote for SF no mater what.




    Macavity's a Mystery Cat: he's called the Hidden Paw -
    For he's the master criminal who can defy the Law.
    He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair:
    For when they reach the scene of crime – Macavity's not there!


    And they say that all the Cats whose wicked deeds are widely known
    (I might mention Mungojerrie, I might mention Griddlebone)
    Are nothing more than agents for the Cat who all the time
    Just controls their operations: the Napoleon of Crime!


    "Running doors" lol that some proper criminal behaviour all right. You're some Jewel, even Paul Reynolds has given up on this waffle at this stage :D

    What type of angle needs a bed.....
    A quadrangle?
    A right angle?
    A triangle?????

    Oh, most of them do indeed work. Just not at things that can be put on a CV.

    but surely with unemployment at an all time low there cant be many of "those people who don't get up early in the morning" ?

    There are people I see every day who never even worked for 1 day of their lives.
    Loads of them too. They have no interest in working either. Nothing stopping them bar laziness and a dependent culture. Shameful.

    well apparently 6 of angles couldn't find a bed for the night so poor Margaret took them to Tallaght Garda Station instead

    What is very apparent is the media attack on Peter Casey calling him ‘populist’ and ‘single issue’ and taking a pop at ‘the disadvantaged’.

    The lad was telling the truth, surely.

    Contrast that with the treatment given to the ‘real populists’ the Alphabet Soup crowd!!

    Want an increase in pay in Dublin Bus/Luas/ Bus Eireann - sure give it to them

    Where are you having the picket- we’ll join you

    Where is the demo supporting breaking the law- we’ll join you

    We want to occupy empty houses- sure we’ll support you.

    Want an increase in welfare/ state pension- why not, hand it out.


    You see there’s a subtle difference in the point of attack from these people, they target the taxpayer, the people who pay for everything,Middle Ireland,people who pay their way and contribute by their diligence and effort.

    Fair game it would appear to be from the media reaction.

    However when a coterie of folk who contribute very little to society, pay very little into the community chest,occupy a disproportionate number of prison places,are called out ,there is media odium for the person who states those facts.


    Has this poster puzzled, so it has.

    if you want to change the things he was talking about, make sure not to vote for any of the parties that have increased the dole, gave travelers the ethnic minority status etc etc. don't be blaming the people on the dole, travelers etc etc. If you want to blame people, blame those responsible.

    Then again, that means taking responsibility in voting. Im sure many of the Casey voters dont know what that is

    I was chatting to a farmer from a rural area recently.

    He couldnt find anyone to paint the corrugated roof on his shed so he gave travellers the job. One got up and said you have a few holes boss and owner said just paint and dont bother about the holes. Shed is painted and traveller comes down with a thousand extra added onto the agreed figure, its payment for the fixed holes.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Farmer argues and then next thing there are six adult males surrounding him, he pays up and the whole extended family and all their neighbours vote for Casey.

    All so true. Attack and abuse the generosity of the tax payer - no issue.
    Make valid comments re the abuse of the tax payers - complete media shut down to try to make it go away and a Taoiseach who was supposedly in favour of workers then tut tutting the man making the sensible comments.

    Its an extremely sinister situation. People are not fools. This is going to continue to boil up until things change.

    As an example, it appears a welfare family have to receive a house suitable to their needs - limited number of children per room etc yet working people it seems have to make do with whatever they can afford whether suitable or not.
    This automatically leads to poorer standards of living for workers. Its a scandal, pure and simple.
    The politicians of course are in a spot as welfare levels are now so high that the welfare vote is all powerful.

    Its a banana republic of the highest order, it will be hard to ditch the pensioners and carers etc, maybe just rise that in line with inflation. But JSA and JSB should be frozen, scrap the christmas bonus for unemployed, deduct the council rent many arent paying from source. Let them pay say E20 for a gp visit. Cut enough that usc can be abolished over several budgets!

    This most recent budget, was easily the biggest insult to workers ever! It was actually fantastic that people got to vent their frustration for a ceremonial role, it was kind of risk free! I posted this months back, it will hit the stage, where people have had enough of reduced living standards and others with no commute, no big debt, no boss, no f**cking worries in the scheme of things! Typical ireland, 20-30 years behind most other developed nations on a host of fronts, that total abuse of the taxpayer wouldnt be tolerated in other countries!

    I have a german dad who moved here a long time ago, the german system is based on what you pay in, because he paid in very little there as he left at a young age, you know what his German pension is? E90 a week, thats it! So they make it clear over there, you get back what you put in! Here? its comedy! some of the leftie pr**cks in the media and politicians may feel some responsibility or god knows what for the legions of wasters here, well I dont. If they are so concerned, start paying more than they are legally obliged too, into the pot that will be pissed up against a wall!

    Yes, agree totally with those views.

    People in charge (Govt.)should have one major plank in their policies.

    That is make work pay, and ensure that those who can work, do work, and cannot hide under slates tipping around and availing of the benefits that those working have to pay for.

    Of course there are other issues too, but the plain people are sick to the teeth of being ripped off by gamers.

    Cannot understand why the media round on those trying to protect the taxpayer by being diligent weeding out these gamers.

    Complete media shut down? Casey has been all over the media for weeks.
