firmly at the trough. one of the worst and most exposed independents.
Maybe it’s more appropriate to refer to him as “Non-Party” rather than Independent, cause like he isn’t really strictly unbiased free from influence Independent

ROSS, Shane – The Constituency of One Party
That works too
Little known fact, I made the glass clock face in the Seanad dining room. Now for ya.
That’s nothing to be proud off
Why Ron?
Is it because you can’t blame the filthy Irish electorate? I’m proud of all the things I made.
Including all of your comments here I take it?
Yes, giggles, can you say the same?
Nice! I’ll have to wangle a lunch invite to take a look at it. I got a glossy update from Lynn Rusne in the post today about her Seanad work. What a bloody waste of paper. Hasn’t she heard of email?
* Ruane
You ruaned it for the rest of us.
Well done Papi, that’s a nice claim to fame.
Thanks, pal!
Papi, your TIME was not wasted, with that amount of visitors! Nice work.
Cheers, Hoop.
très cool Papi
Merci, J., I did the doors for the GAA headquarters too, don’t know if they are still there. Sandblasted glass, with all the options, camogie, hurling, Gaelic football, the lot.
I’ll be checking that out, love a bit of glass work :)
always knew there was something special to you, papi
He’s a cockroach that lad
In every way a cockroach
& he built his whole political career by calling out others at the trough in the Sindo. The lowest of the low
Apart from that he’s grand though
The preaching alcoholic who brought unnecessary anxiety to rural Ireland.
Right. I’m on for a free lunch under the guise of “research”.
In fairness to Father Jospeha (sic) Madigan, all she needed for the 95 guests was two bread rolls and a packet of fish fingers. God bless her. Miracle worker.
The Road Less Travellers, etc..
The road with less travellers ya mean?
