    As did Ferris and Ellis yet people seem incapable of moving on.
    I look forward to you telling them to do so.

    Because you and others like you continue to glory and celebrate what they did

    Some people celebrate some things they did, but not all things they did. Not everything in life is as black and white as you see it, or more to the point as you paint it to suit your little agenda.

    You are attempting to give him a 'pass' by pointing over there at somebody else.
    He is being scrutinised at the moment because this affair was hidden from his leader (allegedly).
    Unless you are saying it is ok for a senior minister to drink drive aas long as he serves his time/pays his penalty?

    Is that what you are saying?

    That is what he's saying by the looks of it.

    And some are aware of it and more interested in the policies of 2020.

    I'd even give FG a vote if I thought they genuinely would tackle housing. Honest to God, FG.
    I suppose now you'll infer I'm a self entitled West brit pimping the tax payer out to Goldman Sachs

    If you want to label calling out the rank hypocrisy of FFGers and their fellow travelers on this site and elsewhere as having an agenda, fine; whatever blows your hair back.

    Do you do the same for Sinn Féin hypocrisy?

    The dogs on the street knew about Barry Cowens ban, so I’m pretty sure that his party leader did.

    They didn't. As the level of alcohol was just above the limit he was able to take an immediate 3 months ban and €200 fine.

    It also seems he had a learners permit, so it seems he could have been under the limit but as the limit for learners is 20/100 he was done.


    If he was driving in northern ireland or Britain, he would have been waved on as he was under their limits

    Also love how the looney left twitterati are making a comparison to Clare Daly.

    Clare Daly initial breath was over the limit
    Clare daly had done an illegal uturn.
    Clare day was "unable" to give a breath in the station and offered a blood sample
    In the end she gave a urine sample.

    What is not known is how long after the stop did she provide the urine sample. Some say that it was over two hours.

    Her Twitter sheep also don't mention that her eventual result which she published would have meant the same Penalty that cowen got if it was 2016 as the higher 80/100 limit applied then

    Hang on there horse. Its regarding the press coverage and lack there of.
    F*** all to do with supporting or attacking Daly or Cowen.
    Are you not curious as to why they decided to run Cowen's story now? Same query as why they went to town on Daly.

    Yes, but I don’t need to around here of course as there’s piles of FFGers and other fellow travelers that do that day in day out while excusing misdemeanours relating to FFGers. Hence the rank hypocrisy charge. A political charge as the elder brother Biffo used to say.

    The Gloves will be off in the incoming Dáil with a robust opposition now that the FFG Confidence and Supply scam has been dispensed with.

    LOL

    I wonder did Biffo Jnr like Fr Ted try the old; "there was a time the police in this country were friends of Fianna Fáil etc........." "those days are gone unfortunately Deputy Cowen, but don't worry, we'll do our best to keep it quiet" the reply from the officer perhaps.

    No agenda save to call out the lies on all sides. Just that SF are so steeped in lies and criminality that they end up getting more attention. The FF/FG front bench wont be attending the funerals of thug criminals or glorifying their miseable useless lives

    Listen to Eoghan Harris here.

    Not sure what this means. Is it an insult? Is it just a reference to a joirnalist who wont play "lets pretend" with Sinn Fein?

    Can you point me to your posts where you call out SF hypocrisy? Can't seem to find any.

    Is that right, why then do you spend all your time attacking them so?

    We know you're dreading the prospect, that's why your party (FF/FG whichever) concocted the Confidence and Supply scam the last time out remember. As Willie O'Dea said to Matt Carthy on RTE after the previous election was over and the counts were coming in; "That (FF and FG going into government together and SF leading opposition) is your wet dream etc." Or words to that effect.

    SF will batter this government from pillar to post and with disgruntled O'Callaghan and others with a knife pointed at Micheál's back it's going to be popcorn time throughout.

    So, none? You can't refer me to your posts where you've called out SF hypocrisy? Okay. It's just that when you accuse somebody else of having an agenda and it looks like you have one yourself then that's, well, hypocrisy.

    Only dreading the prospect of SF/IRA ever getting into power. Mary Lou endlessly whingeing in that grating voice or poor Angus struggling to costruct a coherent sentence is not matter of dread for anyone - save aesthetically.

    This is important to you? Trying to score a point?

    Nope. I have criticised SF on here where criticism is due, just cos you're too lazy to find it doesn't mean it's not there.

    This is the holding to account FFG lead government thread btw, the SF criticising for the sake of it thread because you're supporting an opponent party is that way →

    Instead of having a discussion about who got what post or policies the coalition might develop it's all about shinners!
    Seems they've defo got nothing new to offer or anything but trying to make any discussion about SF. Woirked well in the election so why stop now :)
