        Ah I’m only slagging. They’re still in with a great chance. Their reserves losing to the Belgian reserves is pretty meaningless.

      You’re right. We should wait until next week when they lose properly and exit the competition!

      That’s harsh. When, eventually, someone beats Dublin, the fans of the other 31 counties will be celebrating.

      No don’t because they got a better draw by losing to Belgium. Obviously you know nothing about the WC.

        I’d rather play Japan than Columbia. Last nights game told us nothing. No bite, no intensity.

      I had to look that up. I presume you’re talking about the wrestling stable?

    Star sez: No baths and only 4 minute shower to save water.

    What about sharing showers? Sure I have been doing that for years.

    ‘Varadkar warns’ May/UK etc.
    The same headline every couple of weeks. By the coverage in our own ‘press’ you’d swear that Varadkar was leading some sort of charge against the UK. Looking at any other non-Irish news channels yesterday, Varadkar didn’t even get a mention. Not a mention. Not even an image of him in TV reports even in the background.
    He is the ‘boy’.

          I am not sure how you think that Irish newspapers having more focus on the Irish premier, and newspapers from other countries having less of an interest on the Irish angle, is significant of anything.

          What do you mean by ‘boy’?

    Any chance ye could stop showing the Daily Express ?- there’s always something profoundly depressing about it

      Hey, that’s my favourite paper of all. It’s so consistently mad. When I’m old I plan on reading it and ranting about the good old days

    Bruton (front page Indo) who recently took a big job with AK47’s bro’s lobbying shop,Teneo of Clinton Foundation fame, has found himself in a spot of bother.

    Appears he was acting as a consigliere to yank carpetbaggers,but in a surprising and quite frankly unbelievable statement denies asking for or any receiving payment,he was simply acting in a unofficial capacity for Fáilte Ireland,welocme to Ireland vulture funds.

    Background/filling/commentary yesterday on Dan Boyles Chi-Raq post;)

    One heatwave and Ireland is almost in a water crisis! Seriously, its just crisis management one after the other in Ireland. Our Governments need to learn how to plan. This electioneering based system does not serve Irelands best interest for the future. I think 4 year terms are proving to be a failure all across the western world democracies, but especially Ireland. We should have 6 year terms, so some actual planning and changes happen and the politicians are not thinking about elections and think tanks so much.

      Why waste time & money building reservoirs that will only be used once every 20-40 years?

      What Ireland doesn’t need is wasting money to prevent some small problem that might happen every 20 years – and even if it does happen – you can’t wash the car!!! OMG first world problems.

      I’d agree that our politicians are poo at planning. but we currently have a 5-year max term for the Dáil, I’m not sure extending it to 6 would help much.

    Arlene had a warm hand on her entrance and a very cold one on her exit from da gays in Stormount last night.

    Just a guess but it might have had something to do with her demands that they respect her right to discriminate against them?

        1. SOQ

          That was only from the non binary security personnel and before you ask, searching WAS necessary. The LGBT community could nor risk a kamikaze attack. She could have been strapped with physical bibles.
