‘It’s Been A Big Day For You’

at

Malfunctioning Renua Ireland TD Terence Flanagan sets out his party’s stall on RTÉ’s Drivetime this evening.

A tactful Mary Wilson attempts gentle rebooting.

Thanks Bongobo

    He does not sound alright. I’m not a fan of this party or anything it stands for but that gentleman is in need of a rest I reckon.

    Fair play to Mary Wilson, she could’ve gone to town on him. Absolute train wreck of an interview.

    Actually the mistake Flanagan made was not having something at hand to plagarise.

    “A Fine Gael backbencher has said he should have credited Labour’s Joan Burton with passages of a speech he made in the Dáil.Three passages of Terence Flanagan’s speech in the debate on the Finance Bill were identical to the contribution made by the Labour Deputy leader the previous evening.
    The Dublin North-East TD initially said it was all his own work and that he had nothing to apologise for, when confronted by a journalist.”

      When I listened to it first I was cringeing and thinking ‘Ahh no, the poor petal’.

      But thanks for providing that link PaddyJoe, for context.

      Now I can listen to the clip while roaring laughing and relishing in his discomfort, all traces of sympathy I had for him long gone.

      He sounded a bit like a six year old at the front of the classroom telling everyone about his holiday. He gets flustered around 1:25 and 2:10 but teacher encourages him and helps him through those difficulties, but then he suddenly widdles himself around 3:20 and teacher wisely puts him out of his misery.

      Wow. He regrets “not crediting her “! ?
      Surely he should regret not having enough original thought to spur him into plagiarism in the first place !

      A foul slander.

      You shall be hearing from my solicitor-dentist*

      Darren, a junkie who used to kip in kings inn the odd night. He honed his dentistry skills by pulling his own teeth out to sell for gear.

    Ah man what a disaster interview. The worst part is that he’s a really nice fellow and really wants to do well but that was a disaster.

    this is very easy to diagnose & understand
    it’s simply what happens when they forget to attach their strings and end up having to speak about stuff on their own (without d’oul spinmeister being in control)

    This is the problem, were going to seriously consider putting gobsh1tes like these in charge of the country, the only advantage inda or the other ones have is better diction.
    Bunch of overgrown county councilors the lot of them.
    We need to run this country like a corporation, forget the past, the brits, the ra, the civil war, those people are all dead now and we are living with the legacy of their poor decisions, well fupp that.
    The political systems is dysfunctional, so bin it.
    Someone once said, and i’m paraphrasing here, “anyone who seeks power or high office, should on no account be allowed to have it”
