I’m not in Carlow / Kilkenny so I don’t have to deal with him, thank christ.
Joe cool
How can he be so Catholic friendly being gay n all???
ReproBertie
Was he also “Angry Gay fella who doesn’t want the gays getting married” on numerous TV debates?
MoyestWithExcitement
I couldn’t watch those. So many idiots I can’t shout at. That’s what makes BS so fun. :)

He has also appeared on Vincent Browne to review the papers, usually as part of a weird double act with Colette Browne.
Inopera
well at least he can get married now, shudde r
ahjayzis
Maybe because he doesn’t have a little woman at home to oppress and subdue (due to being intrinsically disordered) he hopes to curry favour with Himself by putting extra effort into oppressing every other ladything?
DubLoony
I have a pet theory that that holds true.
Many of the leading lights of the conservative pro-family/life groups don’t exactly have what they would define as a normal family life themselves.
Its like they can’t manage their own perceived personal failures and so they need to project out to the world on how things should be. Cognitive dissonance how are ya.
MoyestWithExcitement
Yep. People are conservative because they are naturally fearful of the unknown. It’s not like they read The Book of Conservatism and decided that was the socio-political philosophy for them. Everything you do and think is an extrapolation of a base instinct/emotion.

Quinn has a son who says he is gay apparently
Dave
Ooh, curry. Great idea.
Nicolas Roche
Is just an excuse to take a few swipes at this lad – and he’s done enough with the nonsense he’s spewed in the past to earn a few? So the man wants to run for election, fair play to him. He may well lose his deposit and he’ll rightly be taken to task by some of the C/K electorate for his guff. But, like every other candidate, no matter how deluded they are, he’s spending time and money putting himself at the mercy of the electorate. No great harm in that, in so far as I can tell. Also, no great harm in pointing out that he’s guilty of uttering balderdash when it comes to issues of personal morality if he comes looking for a vote.
All the good ones fly south for winter
That is just the spider venom talking Nicolas.

A fair mind. An even temper. A steady hand on the tiller. Could you be persuaded to run yourself, Nicolas?

I may to move to whatever godforsaken bog this guy lives in just to vote for him and whatever crackpot ideology he subscribes to just to annoy the consensus of comments on this post.

‘Oh noes. Some anonymous chap on a message board is going to vote for someone I think is a plank.’ Utterly delusional.

Man exercises democratic right in election night shocker
Here, have a prayer
In fact, no brotherman – here, have two
The happy abortogeists are coming to get him !
If I convert to Catholicism and say an Novena will Paddy Manning allow me to have autonomy over my own uterus and womb and reproductive organs?
Didn’t think so…
As far as Paddy and the rest of them are concerned, god doesn’t listen to the prayers of women, because of the sin of eve and all dat jazz
*jizz
If you convert you’ll be giving up all rights to your womb to Jebus !
Allah be praised!

He would be dangerous if he wasn’t so ridiculous.
I dunno. Does anyone know him as anything other than ‘That gay fella from the Iona ads on Youtube?’
He almost makes Keith Mills likeable
Easy now Fluffy.
No.
