There is deep anger in Government at the militant tactics adopted by the Garda Representative Association (GRA) in an effort to scuttle talks on the extension of the Croke Park agreement.
Taoiseach Enda Kenny and Minister for Justice Alan Shatter yesterday rebuked the GRA for picketing the venue where talks between the Government and union leaders were taking place.
Mr Kenny called on the GRA to return to the talks, which he said were critical for the Republic’s future.
“The place to be is at the table and the opportunity is there for the GRA to go back in there and to discuss in a rational and a professional manner the concerns and the anxieties that they might have,” he said after an event in Sandyford, Co Dublin.
Yeah? Say that to their faces…

Just before midnight tonight at a suitably themed Round Room at the Mansion House in Dublin – kitted out as ‘LAPD City Hall’.
The event was part of the JDIFF and the Jameson cult film club screening of LA Confidential with a Q&A hosted by Rick O’Shea. Apparently, the drinks tokens resembled a business card featured in the movie.

Really?
Finance Minister Michael Noonan on Bloomberg Television’s ‘The Pulse’ earlier today.
It was all smiles until around 9.30, when he was asked about the Bundesbank’s president Jens Weidmann’s recent comments regarding the legality of the promissory note deal.
In a much more sombre exchange with news anchor Guy Johnson at 10.38.
Guy Johnson: “No rules were broken.”
Michael Noonan: “No rules were broken.”
Johnson: “Do you expect any challenge? Do you expect a legal challenge to emanate from German? Could there be a challenge? And how destabilising would that be?”
Noonan: “I don’t expect any legal challenge from any authority or any institution in Europe. Individuals frequently take cases, we have a string of them in the Irish courts always, but they don’t go very far.”
Yikes.
