Return Of The Cheeky Little Divil

at

Former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern has been taking his full €150,000 a year pension since he left the Dail, after reversing his decision to give part of it back to the State.
The revelation comes as new figures released under Freedom of Information legislation show that only seven out of 116 former ministers gave up part of their pensions last year, despite the introduction of a simple system to allow them to do so.
None of the Fianna Fail ministers who presided over the economic crash gave up any part of their pensions.

Just let let that sink in.

Bertie is trousering €12.500 a month – about €3,000 a week.  Which would be about €600 a day if he was working. Which he’s not.

Then re-watch this.

Now. Who needs a brisk walk in the crisp morning air when you can get your pulse racing like that?
