What in the name of high school football is this drivel? On his way to achieving a great Brexit deal me whole, the mercurser deal is provisionally signed by the EU and the fat controller stood back and did nothing even though it would ruin Irish farmers

Do not be too harsh and maybe Sorrolla will what it is he is on.

And Hogan does look like Sir Topam Hatt (you can't say Fat Controller anymore :rolleyes:)

so ya'll get big phil's scalp ok... who replaces him? does ireland still keep the agriculture portfolio?

by all i've heard hes pretty good at his job over there. Get your scalp & replace with who? Luke ming? we'll all become hash farmers will we?

so what they had a shindig down in cliffden fair balls to them. its going on all over the country in house parties etc etc. they got cought so what. I think the whole media reaction is bull**** tbh, let him back over to brussels & get on with doing his job.
regarding him being caught on the phone by a gaurd? big deal, how many here are perfect drivers? never break speed limit? never sneak a quick look whilst stopped at the lights? always keep left unless overtaking?

I'll gaurantee 95% of the people calling for his scalp are no holier than himself.

Perhaps you should give it a rest, and not direct others what to do or say. If you have a problem with a post or poster, report it and leave the modding to the mods

Once again I will ask - what difference does an Irish person in the EU Commission make to Ireland?

They cannot show favouritism to Ireland.

And Hogan is only interred in himself.

hes not even an irish official? he's an empoyee of the EU wtf is the big hullaballoo about?

Surely theres more important things ya'll can vent about?

If the EU commision was a democracy then we would could replace him with the candidate who had the most votes.

by all i've heard hes pretty good at his job over there. Get your scalp & replace with who? Luke ming? we'll all become hash farmers will we?
if the EU commision was a democracy If we was able to vote and Luke ming got the majority of votes then yes.

I'll gaurantee 95% of the people calling for his scalp are no holier than himself.
I'll gaurantee 100% of the EU commison was selected and not elected.

Whats behind the mask is now slowly being revealed, the working of the unelected selected elite called the EU commission.

Yeah they don't apply to him or us, he didn't break any laws apart from using his phone whilst driving, which he should have got points for.

I understand people thinking he is a b*ll*x but what is it that they want the Irish government to do about it?

We will see how it pans out but it highlights one thing. You cant act with impunity in a position of power and believe that they are no repercussions.

You sound angry. This is Phil Hogan's own making. The public didn't force him to break several rules. If he can't follow simple guidance he's a liability and likely to mess up in other aspects of his job. Think of it like the opposite of transferable skills. Not only that but some of his claims have been alarming such as the leaving of work documents in Kildare. This news story has travelled all around the world and nuggets like that will make him look a liability to some of
the EU's adversaries.

Well when ones talks about Luke Ming who may i say is an elected man, wouldnt be my choice but elected never the less, who could also be romoved from his job.
This man is surrounded by a commision who was unelected with more power than he would have and no accountability to no one.

Then its your comment that has an issue with democracy.

I think his arrogance is astounding but his reaction and sketchy details don’t surprise me at all.
That being said, he won’t lose his fat cat job in Europe over it, but he’s done. I predict once his current run ends that’ll be the end of him in Europe. He’ll have to move to a private corporation.
There’s a trust issue here, and that won’t be forgotten down the line.

I think your right i think he will get to keep his job.

There is an opportunity for change here but on this occasion it wont be taken.

Break an orange light? No

But if he sat with 82 people together on a plane with no social distancing, then yes

If Phil was simply caught on his phone then while he was here, it would be newsworthy but most likely not a resigning offence

Again, Phil hogan

- broke local lockdown restrictions
- broke the law by driving whilst using a phone
- broke government restrictions on indoor gatherings
- ignored a significant weather warning

and has a very dubious story around quarantine

That’s a lot for a normal person but for someone who’s party is a part of government, it’s a disgrace. Coming at a time of mixed government messages on restrictions and general public fatigue....

If covid was so dangerous then the people that attended would be the first to know so why did they attend? It wasn't a crowd of young people having a party.

The Irish government have done it - now the rest is up to to Hogan's boss.

The judiciary are already taking action about Woulfe.

RTÉ has severe ties with O'Rourke

Irish government need to turn their attention to the rest of the thicks at th dinner, to the management of the club and hotel involved

It’s moving slowly but at least it’s moving. Aine Brady and Brian Hayes should be next for public scrutiny, the sort big Phil is getting. How someone can head up an elderly organization and travel from a banned location in these dangerous times for the elderly is unacceptable as his her silence.
Grealish is definitely setting Cassidy up for something too, Captain turning on President after the captains prize was canceled- wouldn’t surprise me.
