Wow , those people really want to serve the irish people , or have I go something mixed up ?
Members of the European parliament are paid €8,611.31 (£7,705) a month in gross salary, plus pension. On leaving the parliament they receive a golden parachute, a transition allowance worth up to €206,664, depending on length of service. €4,416 monthly “general expenditure allowance” is also awarded to MEPs to fund their constituency office. MEPs are also refunded first-class travel expenses and get a €313 daily allowance for hotel and living costs when working in Brussels and Strasbourg.
A lot of posters there hung well below the minimum height of 2.3m. You’d think aspiring and current city politicians would know their own bye-laws.
Saw a heap of people on the canal at 10pm lashing up the posters. Illegal, no?
What a waste of plastic….
Why would someone vote on the basis of someones face anyway?
Remind us again what the law is on defacing election posters? Is it true it’s a civil matter, not a criminal matter and the maximum damages would be the cost of the poster? And that there’s never been a legal case involving defaced posters?
if you put your smiling face out in public – what do you expect…
what you have done to frilly keane ?
Ah cheezus Brudder
Don’t tell me this is annuder one
I would imagine that a poster not adhering to the poster rules can be removed without sanction, so posters not high enough, posters on road signs, posters in junctions, posters without printers name and address . . .
Barry Andrews for example would appear to be flouting 3 rules with 1 poster in that last picture, this does not surprise me in his case, either he or one of his minions was blatantly late through a red light in his liveried SUV on Patrick St last week.
the type of plastic used in those corrugated posterboards reacts in a very interesting way to the presence of certain specific solvents like Acetone some fella told me
Does anyone else think that Barry Andrews photograph looks like the image of Colm Cooper?
