    she certainly didn’t have anything resembling looks but she had compassion and cared about people in need. oh wait…

      she had armed gardai… and has more now, as she knocks on peoples doors…. or maybe she’ll get the armed gardai to do the knocking??

      What on earth has her looks got to do with anything? The bile directed at Joan Burton would never be thrown at a man. And I say that as a man. Oh and the Irish are hardly winning in the looks department so take a long hard look at your own reflection before commenting on a female politician.

    id sooner put Gerry Adams in over Kenny again. Id hate the thought of Kenny thinkin he did a good job.

      I find that apple juice placed in a 330ml bottle works better there, Ollie. Nothing beats that look on their face when they THINK that it’s something else. Chortle!

    Government Buildings is really underrated as a really very pretty building, innit? It looks like a proper government HQ.

      It really is, I love walking down Kildare and Merrion street for those reasons. They are lovely.

    Whats all the escort needed for, to go out to see Higgins in the Park
    The Long Goodbye is really hanging on to power, and were it not for
    that their time is up, they would still hang on.
    They know they are gone, one sure hopes they use Simon Harris all
    over the place and that he canvasses in the flooded areas, as it will
    work wonders for them….indeed Joan could take out the boat on the
    water with him.

    i bet joan has already cleared out the stationary closet. there won’t be so much as a paper clip left after she’s gone..

  7. Clampers Outside!

    Twitter gonna be a second by second account of the election… man steps off curb, walks to car, woman does similar…. tune in, live periscope via meeja…… I’ll be avoiding the tweet machine then.

    just read that Joan is hitting the Campaign trail with an Armed Garda Escort.

    Sur if she just stayed at home watching the telly, and atin’ M& S trifles for the next 4 weeks the Labour party would be the better of it

    As for Edna
    he’s like the fat kid on the see-saw
    refusing to budge and give someone else a go

    This campaign is going to be hard work,
    boring, tedious and full of gobshites hacking posters and online discussions
    (although there is some fun in the latter)

    the fun starts in the count.
    who’s wi’me?

    Am playing with my crystal ball. I am seeing Labour suffering the same fate as the Lib Dems and Fine Gael defying expectations with Enda behaving like a spring lamb when he sees the final results. Does Bodger take bets?

    1. same old same old

      I don’t think so. I’m fairly sure we’re looking at a hung Dáil and minority government after. Micky Martin will be the Kingmaker
