Leo Varadkar story in The Village??? - Mod Notes and banned Users in OP updated 16/05

So we are still talking about a few lads in YoungFG? I guess when nothing is becoming of the actual investigation and as Garda sources stated that some of the witnesses are changing their stories to drag it out, they are being taken in hook line, and sinker.

If its true that he did actually make an enemy of the big D, he's so professionally dead that they'll have to bury him twice.

D will fund the other boys all the way to the Court of God Almighty himself, until the Summit companies are busted to dust.

I do love it when that certain kind of hubris goes down in flames.

Whether he is, or whether he isn't, the story has moved on. The only narrative now, is the motivation and the temperament of the person, or people, that raised the complaint.

Chay Bowes is a crank, a shoulder chip, even some other things that are alleged and remain the subject of litigation.

And now Patrick, our Captain Ahab, alleged to be what amounts to an unstable sociopath and thats eveb before we even get to the alleged corporate malfeasance of various sorts.

Its like Azeem Rafiq last week. Poor little victim, fighting the big bold racist and anti-islamic cricket people. Succeeding even the World is against him. What sympathy flowed in. But no, he's just a big ole antisemite.

Hypocrisy will burn. Hubris will burn. Ego will burn.

Unfounded is the incorrect adjective. The legal actions against him clearly have foundation and only the deluded would say otherwise.

Unproven is what they are, but if they are ultimately proven in Court, not only does it bring down a world of shyt on Cosgrave, it begs questions about the motivation for everything he does and is involved in.

It was always suspected that his hostility towards Fine Gael people, Enterprise Ireland, the IDA, Dublin City Council and God knows who else, was due to a perceived slight on his business and on him personally in relation to his activities in Dublin. There is prima facia evidence now that this is precisely the case and that all his subsequent actions are vexatious and spiteful.

Varadkar has a case to answer, and he will. Cosgrave has a case to answer now too and you'd better be sure that he will.

You guys?

Always with the us vs them mentality, ML.

Let me be clearer.....find a single post of mine which has contained any sort of insinuation about LV or presumed his guilt? What exactly should I stay out of the bookies for? For pointing out the walking contradiction that is your posting history on this thread?

My issue isn't with people calling for the presumption of innocence of Leo (or indeed Paddy).....it is the blatant hypocrisy on show when calling for it for one while engaging in the presumption of guilt for the other.

What do I think the reaction would be? I'm not sure. I can imagine the posts on here should a certain other party shut down a youth branch for disagreeing with the party leader though.

Very amusing indeed, I have to chortle to myself at the what to me seems to be faux horror about what DR Varadhker allegedly has done and not a word about what others have allegedly done, on any front.

Very strange kind of reactions would seem to me to be the kindest way of describing it.

Nobody has presumed the guilt of Paddy. Evidence has been presented in the form of extracts from affadavits to the court i.e. actual court evidence has been produced and commented on.

There has been no court evidence produced in the case of Leo. It hasn't gone to court, while the actions against Paddy are further advanced and court evidence is available for commentary. That may never happen for Leo, because the likelihood is that there won't be a court case.

As for shutting down a youth branch, that is in the ha-penny place when forcing MLAs to step down is the new order of the day.
