Don't seem to be effected. But my brain might have glazed over when MM was talking.

This is just a load of absolute waffle, has anyone mentioned the Meat/food factories yet? I keep zoning out.

Like predicted the held back cases used as a justification for new measures

Stephen Donnelly is a chancer. Always has been.

Covid or no covid how did we end up with him

Absolutely no enforcement of travel quarantine and absolutely no mention of it ......how many of the new clusters may have originated from outside Ireland .

Are you still in Las Vegas?

Wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of the cops there, I'd say.

Yeah exactly. And I certainly wouldn't want to give them powers to enter without a warrant because someone reported that there's a party going on. But sure, its ireland, be grand.

A quarrel had arisen between the Horse and the Stag, so the Horse came to a Hunter to ask his help to take revenge on the Stag. The Hunter agreed, but said: “If you desire to conquer the Stag, you must permit me to place this piece of iron between your jaws, so that I may guide you with these reins, and allow this saddle to be placed upon your back so that I may keep steady upon you as we follow after the enemy.”

The Horse agreed to the conditions, and the Hunter soon saddled and bridled him. Then with the aid of the Hunter the Horse soon overcame the Stag, and said to the Hunter: “Now, get off, and remove those things from my mouth and back.”

“Not so fast, friend,” said the Hunter. “I have now got you under bit and spur, and prefer to keep you as you are at present.”

Then the horse bucks him off and either gallops away or kicks him square in the face..... Not a great analogy.

I don't think so.

It's basically as you were essentially bar the sporting events I think?

CalamariFritti

Well told you all along they've lost the plot. For those who didn't believe it. Take this one.

Leo is a spin merchant. He lost me and plenty of my friends and family the very second he started his bullsh1te fun and games about quoting movies. Absolute clown

190 new cases .. nice timing to try frighten people. It’s so bloody obvious holding cases back to try to be as dramatic as possible during press conference.

So a bloody pub flaunted the rules ..and outdoor sporting activities for spectators gets culled?

Why don't you go to the conspiracy forum where you belong. Such a stupid post.

I'm gonna presume no deaths today, they would have mentioned it if any

Seeing Eammon Ryan speak and trying to make it look like he's not following a script will never fail to entertain me.

What's the point of Eamon Ryan..?

No Leo. Interesting that he's not there when there's bad news to be doled out.

Held back or not, our average over the past week is not good at all and should frighten us enough to cop on and double down the effort to minimise transmission

Eamonn Ryan was talking out of his bumhole there.

thegreengoblin

190 cases? They really must think people are thick. What a shower of gombeens. The Eamon Ryan comes on LOL.

prunudo

Can't trust figures anymore, we know they've been holding back on figures and grouping them together the last week, and now mentioning the 32 county death rate.
The mixed messaging has been shocking from the new government.

KrustyUCC

137 from yesterday
31 from today
22 from private testing if my numbers are correct

Beechwoodspark

I liked Eamons contribution there.

I’d say he’s a voice of reason to the cabinet behind the scenes.

BringBackMick

As predicted huge numbers of back logged cases given today.

It stinks.
