Bono: ‘Would people prefer if I die broke?’ Mostly, they’d prefer if you put a sock in it and refrain from telling them how to spend their money. Some tax would be nice too.

you can be a practicing barrister at 25?
Yep
I have never in my life bought the Daily Mail but I feel I must know more about that story before the film is released.
Martco
cmere…
what’s the age of consent exactly in this country? 17 y?
Yep
I think so. Not sure I want to read the story now.
Lilly
Indeed. So badly paid it seems, she stole bikes to supplement her income. Although the teen lover bit suggests the bike theft might have been his gig and she was just along for the ride.

I spotted that also – no chance. 3 years for a degree, 2 years for Articles, LLB, 5 years as junior solicitor, 2-3 years as a student barrister. Average 12/13 years of work needs to be demonstrated before being presented before the bar. A 25 year old – quickly doing the maths (yes, maths – I’m not American) would have need to have begun their law degree @age 11?
There’s that scene in “Rake”, where Richard Roxburgh’s character – a barrister in Sydney, makes the paper and is quoted as being – a barrista?
It does seem unlikely, is all. I seem to have taken the long-winded route to arrive at a point – welcome to my world.
Listrade
Damn autocorrect! We meant barista!
Cian
Best typo/autocorrect ever!
Listrade
She’s listed as a Junior Counsel on the Four Courts website, so it checks out.
Cian
While ‘devilling’ are you considered a barrister? Have you already been called to the bar?
Frilly Keane
Yes.
Shayna has plugged in about 15 yrs there
Law Degree – doesn’t have to be tho
Kings Inns
Junior C
Super Junior
Senior C
And lemme tell ye going from JC ta SC is no guarantee
And is more about pals in high places than experience or skill
Brother Barnabas
so long as you’re a Dub, you’re grand
Cian
So is it doable in 4 years:
3 years – Legal Studies degree
+1 year “Degree of Barrister-at-Law ” (full time)
+ and then you start devilling?
or is there apprenticeship first? another 4 years? = 8 total;
leave school at 17 + 8 years = 25
Andyourpointiswhatexactly?
Three years college, 4 if you go to Trinity. Then you go to King’s Inns to study (full-time for a year, or I think you can do it over two on a modular basis). Then you start to devil for another barrister. Sometimes for one year, sometimes two. Then you’re on your own.
Sheik Yahbouti
Yes.
petey
“(yes, maths – I’m not American)”
indeed
Sheik Yahbouti
What are you talking about? Become ‘a Junior Solicitor ‘ and then progress to being ‘a Junior Barrister ‘?? Ah, I actually can’t be bothered.
Sheik Yahbouti
Total nonsense.
GiggidyGoo
As the Bank Holiday weekend is upon us, I wonder what kind of government announcements will be made at 5pm this evening.
Lilly
I can tell you what it won’t be: ‘Dail to sit on Monday in urgent bid to address CervicalCheck crisis.’
GiggidyGoo
It’ll probably be the April homeless figures. Murphy likes long bank holiday weekends to try bury news.
Cian
What, exactly, could the Daíl do on Monday to address the CervicalCheck crisis? Is there some legislation that needs to be passed?
Lilly
Same as they do any other day, sit there and generate lots of hot air :) Don’t take everything so literally Cian.
david
A few days I posted about the screening and mentioned that same company had been awarded the contract for bowl screening
Which prompted the usual abuse of me
Even one said what’s a bowl screen
I stated that it will not be just women now its anyone male or female that could of had a false negative
I had the procedure done three years ago
And Harris is still minister as all this very disturbing things are being drip
Its time the whole lot of them are gone
I reckon possibly the worst health scandal in the world is about to break
Sheik Yahbouti
You had your bowl screened three years ago. What happened next?;-)
Lilly
Nicholas Mosse demanded a royalty fee, that’s what happened next.
david
Sheik ya booties
I stated days ago about the possible disaster of the same scandal from bowl screening as now we hear about the smear tests
Imagine if the same horror story emerges as tests done three years ago read wrongly then covered up like the smear tests resulting in many just finding out they have cancer when they are screened again
What then
A good dose of smart bottom replies from the likes of ye Nigel starina soq papi
And not forgetting Bertie
As for what happened next
Well what will happen next is I will go abroad and pay for one next year when I go on holiday
And get the sample if positive dated
david
They should be forced to do this over the bank holiday
Lilly
‘Rents rise by 70% and are now 23% above Celtic Tiger peak.’ Uh oh. Should we be selling, Marmaduke?
Dhaughton99
So she’s the one who nicked my fixie.
filly buster
i know for fact that that polish dude didn’t murder his wife. this is lazy from the guards, pinning it on the only guy they know was in the vacinity. which was their home.
Cian
I hope you bring (or have brought) this fact to the Guards.
jusayinlike
Will do Enda..
filly buster
i tried, but ive no evidence so they dont wanna know. they have this guy and wanna get it done and outta the way. nothing changes in the force. this kind of stuff came to light already, but no change.
Andyourpointiswhatexactly?
Yeah. Having no evidence might be the issue there for them, I’d say.
filly buster
i know her husband and her a few years and there’s no way he did it. absolutely no way. she left a party and was killed at 6.30 am(ish) very near their home. He didn’t get up and murder her. someone from that party did, im sure of it. but the only person they can place in the area is her husband. but he was in bed asleep. its awful theyre blaming him. i cant beleive it, and they wont listen.
david
Some marriage then when he dose not go to a party with his wife
Maybe filly buster might now be interview by the garda
Remember anyone could of killed her and maybe it was someone who knows her( ish)
Cian
“i know for fact that that polish dude didn’t murder his wife”.
Do you actually mean:
“I’ve know her husband for a few years and I really don’t think he would do it.”
ReproBertie (SCU)
“Some marriage then when he dose not go to a party with his wife”
What a stupid comment which says more about you than him. Perhaps he went home early to let the babysitter leave. Perhaps he had work the next morning. Perhaps he trusts his wife to be in the company of others when he is not around.
Lilly
Her family clearly don’t think the husband did it either.
Remember Jill Meagher murdered in Australia. The police suspected the husband at first but at least they maintained an open mind and managed to nab the killer.
david
Wow bet you know who murdered that pint in bruxels last night
Statistics prove the majority of murders of a spouse has impute from wife or husband
Some people are just plain scumbags
david
Now we finally know the EU strategy regarding brexit
Use the republic to do the dirty work
Well its going to all end in tears
The GFA finished
A massive hard border
Then the EU will use the new EU fleet to patrol our waters regarding fishery grounds
Its going to get very dirty and nasty
ReproBertie (SCU)
Backwards as usual. We are the EU david and on our behalf the EU negotiators are pushing for no hard border as part of protecting the GFA.
As the British Taoiseach’s Sasamach negotiators have not yet figured out what their plan is, the UK will probably be staying in the customs union until 2023. By then there’ll have been a general election and the DUP will no longer have any hold over the new British government. That will mean either the UK entirely stays within the EU, or within the EU Customs and Regulatory Union or the EU/UK border is in the Irish Sea with the entire island of Ireland in either the EU or the EU Customs and Regulatory Union.
It must be very frustrating when the EU refuse to live up to your undemocratic fantasies.
david
No Bertie we are a little country that has 85%ofvthe EU fishing grounds and 5% of the quota
We also were screwed for the debt run up by delinquent banks
We have little say and do what we are told
The British do not have a teashock
So if you want to use Gaelic to post at lease post your whole post t in Irish
A border is at the border of a nation and where the border between northern Ireland and the republic is two different jurisdiction’s
Which is between the republic ,and the northern Irish member of the united kingdom
Wishful thinking is not reality
And if negotiations are built on wishful thinking there lies the problem and until varadka gets that into his thick head nothing will result but talk talk and the clock is ticking
ReproBertie (SCU)
Ceart go leor david.
