Think the red one is a Cortina maybe??
And maybe a Model T?
The red one might be a Vauxhall Victor, I think.
There is also a mannequin of an old-timey garda sleeping in each one because they can’t pay their own mortgages, what with all of their BLTs not doing so well.
bacon, lettuce, tomato?
or misspelled buy-to-let?
Gardaí enjoy both sandwiches and rental properties (probably).
Do they have a section on Dean Lyons, Brian Rossiter and Frank Short? Or is it all just garda propaganda?
Probably not – I would say they will a section on Gardaí murdered in the line of duty, though.
Any display highlighting the 59 allowances paid to the Gardai or the scale of their pension entitlement?

Shure dey haven’t an arse in dere trousers.
Vauxhall VX or Ventora or Victor.
As featured to good effect in that TV drama of the time, The Burke Enigma, starring John Kavanagh..
The intelligence file on Clare Daly is especially beautifully presented. All calligraphy and sh1t.
haha
What? there isn’t a stuffed Gerry McCabe there?
That’s a pretty disgusting comment.
You must be a Shinner.
Or someone trying to smear them.
That’s well out of order. Your post should be banned.
Gerry McCabe was a highly respected member of the Gardai and the people of Limerick and Kerry.
“The Garda Síochána will succeed not by force of arms or numbers, but on their moral authority as servants of the people” was their motto in the days when they were bringing piece to a country still full of guns and gunmen after a devastating civil war… seems to be slipping a bit.
I wouldn’t say the Gardaí had fascist roots just because its second Commissioner later had a dalliance with right wing politics. Its a bit of a stretch.
have they got any models of the crates of beer they got from Shell?
