      I love the Healey-Raes.
      The true voice of Ireland.
      Not your skinny latte sandalistas living in a shoebox in Dumpland and thinking they’re at the epicentre of where it’s at.
      They’ve been putting manners on pompous politicians with ideas above their station for decades.
      The Dail needs a whiff of the farmyard to remind the TDs from whence they came.

        ‘not your skinny latte sandalistas living in a shoebox in Dumpland and thinking they’re at the epicentre of where it’s at.’
        yeah, cos those healey-raes are so urbane and cosmopolitan aren’t they?
        parish pump politcs is the very definition of ‘thinking they’re at the epicentre of where it’s at’.

          Someone doesn’t like to be reminded he used to be culchie …
          Admit it, you used to wear shoes with a shiny metal buckle on them.

        “The Dail needs a whiff of the farmyard to remind the TDs from whence they came.”

        indeed

        next thing we know they’ll be using words they don’t even understand

          Good lord, another bottom-sniffer is following me about today.
          It’s like a troop of red-bottomed monkeys.
          Have I upset you lovey ?

          1. Brother Barnabas

            it’d be funny if it turned out that english isnt charger’s first language – and he’s actually a polish roofer living in slough

          2. Charger Salmons

            Troupe.
            Facepalm.
            The troop of red-bottomed monkeys stalking me is growing.They’ll be wanting to pick each other’s nits soon.

          3. scottser

            ah don’t take it personally now charger, we’re just holding you up to the same high standards that you expect of others. how does it feel down there?

      3. Cian

        Michael Healy Rae eh?

        The second wealthiest TD [in the previous government] is Kerry TD Michael Healy-Rae, with an estimated value of €5.4m.

        Mr Healy-Rae is by far the biggest landlord in the Dail with 10 rental properties.

        Come on smarty pants
        Your vision of rural ireland is Michael from Ryan’s daughter
        Mine of you is fruity metcalf

    I love the Healy-Raes.
    The Dail needs a whiff of the farmyard to remind TDs of where they came from and who they represent.

      1. dav

        he really doesn’t care, just looking for an opportunity to vomit out the “PUNCH” characterisations of Ireland and the Irish, standard for the brexiteer in fairness

  2. some old queen

    In a way, I think it is in SF’s interests to play Cinderella and let the ugly sisters go into government because as a real left alternative they can pound the hell out of them and, if everything tanks because of Brexit- then FFG will have no one else to blame but themselves.

  3. class wario

    again, as i always say, the people who re-elected eoghan murphy cant be turning their noses up at the people who voted for the healy raes

  4. Hector Ramirez

    Remember when Mick Wallace got castigated for his Dail attire… it’s a slippery slope, all these clowns moving into the circus.
