    The big difference between that horrible person you mention and Leo is that Leo is a good person and knows what he is doing so did not deserve it. That other person do did deserve it because he is just a horrible nasty person and I am glad he does not get any airtime anymore. Thankfully I would just skip by a horrible person like that anyway because I am able too.

    I doubt Farage cares of your opinion of him, but it is pretty hypocritical to say he deserved it. You don't actually know Farage or Varadkar to say they are a horrible or good person, just their public political persona.

    And Farage gets plenty of airtime still in Britain. He had a national radio show until July on LBC.

    Given how common acid attacks are becoming in the UK (and to a lesser extent Ireland to be fair), throwing any liquid at a person needs to be dealt with extremely seriously.

    It could very well be psychologically damaging for the victim as they wouldn't know for some time what had been thrown.

    This lady is a piece of ****.

    Guaranteed she's from a well off family.

    Here's another from a woke left Author. These types are in the majority on Irish twitter:

    Being progressive now is nearly a class thing.

    Nearly always middle class but the overriding sense that they alone are holy righteous and good and all others are sinners, vulgar proles.

    100%. At best, you could say she's probably too stupid to realise how traumatic that experience could be.

    There's a vast difference between an espresso and a milkshake.

    Different solar systems.

    It's the act - who knows what's in a liquid fckud into your face.

    I'll reserve judgement until she's identified..... But... it's going to be your stereotypical crusty far left underachiever angry at life because she wasn't popular in school, isn't it?

    Radicalised at pony camp no doubt.

    While I'd agree on Varadkar, Farage on the other hand made his career out of hate speech. So when that's the the political persona that you choose to adopt, it's fair to view him as a horrible person.

    I'd have chased after her and tripped her up, hopefully she takes a heavy fall from that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,171 ✭✭✭screamer


    Could have been anything in that cup, water, acid, urine, covid laced liquid, excrement.
    I don’t care about anyone’s political persuasions, nothing justifies doing this to anyone.
    I hope we see a Leo’s law to make attacks like these punished harshly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    I've had hot coffee thrown in the window at work, the Gardai were given the reg and van type and even a witness came forward.... Yeah you guessed it they did nothing.....


    It of course will be different here....

    I have no time for Varadkar but he's the second in command of the state, he should be better protected. What if she'd had a knife?

    Cowardly thing to do. And you just know if the roles were reversed she’d be crying all sorts of assault.

    I think they epitomise the pathetic man-child/woman-child that society seems to be churning out more & more these days.

    Most are probably close in age to me so I feel comfortable saying it - middle class upbringing, never had a job in school or college, half arsed leaving cert, doing any degree they could get into in college just to stop themselves from having to be a grown up.

    The cohort of society who dont think they are an adult & dont really behave like one until they are 30 yet are baffled that they dont have a house or a high paying job by 30.

    The kind that will put up posts on twitter about wearing masks & put up facebook frames about nurses but have a house party with 40 people cos they have to live.

    Essentially idiotic, childish, underachieving, hypocritical goons.

    Thats what the skateboard means to me when I see a person of adult age (18 & over) with one

    How has this so many thanks. Anti-skateboard. Jesus wept.

    Herself, Paul Murphy and Rich Boy Barrett.

    When she asked Pops why Sara's daddy had a bigger 4x4 with leather seats he replied that it was capitalism. Ever since that day she has vowed to tear down the system by any means necessary.

    You're just in the pocket of 'Big Skateboard' - I would say jog on but it would be ironic


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 838 ✭✭✭The_Brood


    The people defending Varadkar or Martin or anyone in government here are the disgrace. We are being absolutely destroyed left right and center by this government, everything is taken away from us while they party it up golfing breaking every last one of their rules, and you are outraged at coffee? Joke.

    Do we know the person in question is a socialist?

    No, but it fits the profile. Probably wears a Che Guevara t-shirt. Occasionally has dreadlocks. Profile picture of a black square on Facebook. A tag line that say something like “Feminist. Activist. Human.”

    I’d imagine her boyfriend is someone who tells you the wonders of socialism whilst sitting in a tent at an Indy music festival, sniffing ketamine off of a cracked IPhone 5 screen.

    What about those of is who have worked hard every single day of our lives, gotten degrees, studied, achieved things, improved everything they can improve, yet are still paid like absolute dog sheit with no prospects? All the while the rich get richer in this country without hardly breaking a sweat?

    You know nothing of hard work and injustice. Nothing.

    What a waste of resources, I wonder will it go the way of Joan's brush with mortality (AKA the consequences of her own actions).

    You know nothing of me. Nothing.

    Also if a cv with your above standard of English arrived where I work- they’d burn it.

    You haven’t gotten improved as much as you should be gotten improving
