Most of those who might have been in the spotlight have already gone. It doesn't look like there's too much left in the story now.

Oh there is a few more alright.

Anyone of prominence that attended the dinner has to be held accountable I'd personally look at who attended the golf event too. Strange time to be holding such events with people in close proximity of one and other.

There appears to be no issue with the golf event, the Golf club ran things by the book, they turned up played their golf and left, no hospitality in the clubhouse before or after

I'd say the golf club never got a chance to host the gig,they wanted to line the pockets of their pal the hotelier.

I was unsure which way she go but it was Phil against the Nation who nominated him so no contest really once the boxes were ticked.
There be a testing time going forward for politics in general in Ireland, i expect an Election as soon as Covid settles.
The Government parties were part of Clifden event and really said nothing until Phil did a P Flynn interview which he said guidelines not apply to him. SF came in after that but unfortunately the game was over before they took part.
Kelly the labout man spoke but i cannot remember the timing, changing times ahead for polotics in Ireland if they want us to take them serious, it be interesting...

Who cares about the golf? You are allowed to play golf.
I think enda Kenny and dick spring were at the golf but they had the good sense to leave

It's no wonder Golf was the first sport back when you see who was at the doo.

Golf (and tennis) were always going to be the first sports back, both played in the open with social distancing easily managed. The GUI developed an extensive return to golf protocol that all golf clubs must adhere to. There is nothing to see here.

If it resembles a main course of a dinner - and who hasn't had a dinner from a chipper - and actually costs €9; its fine. Plenty of pubs taking in outside food due to not having kitchens.

Now, two rather dinner sized meals from my local chipper, in a much dearer location, is barely €18 so proving it actually costs €9 per person in Kerry might be a challenge.

In fairness the rules on this are arse backwards.

Good man to send to Brussels me thinks or better send both of them.
They have gone very quiet, none of them ever mentioned Hogan.
All about chips, porter and Kerry .

I am surprised their collegues in Dail not pick up on fact no need for masks in Kerry a few weeks ago.
They did not have the manners to adhere to what he and his fellow legislators were advising the rest of what to do.

Say i want a pint of porter which be about €3.20 in kerry, i need to get a burger from his shop at cost €5.81 to make up the €9, i can then drink pints all night.

Waiting game now to see public reaction hoping Hogan demise will kill the momemtun of all of this, i expect politicians to be quiet for next few days to guage public reaction.
They were all so vocal last night i expect they knew Hogan was finished and Ursula just asked Hogan to present his case to Irish people and he failed.
I expect the decision was kinda made at this point but if Hogan did well she may have had a re-think.
I expect after this and 81 intellegent meeting for dinner in Clifden people will want to have people who have standards as public representives and judges.

I think the media class are simply projecting their lack of morality onto public representatives and Hogan (who isnt a rep).

No the meal itself has to cost 9 euro i thought?
