Cork. So much to answer for.

So Transport Minister Noel Dempsey took the good government jet (seven grand an hour) to Northern Ireland when he could have gone by road.
So what? We’re 100 billion in the red. Who gives a fuck?
And when he got to Northern Ireland. His driver was there to meet him.
That’s his job.
Having driven all the way from Dublin.
Oh.

Ker. Tish.
You have to love this guy. Basically asking for the headline: Lying King.
Wherever Ivor is – and we’re betting the Horse Show – he’s kept the Broadsheet political reporters on their toes this week. Could there be a trip to the continent for our team, a chance for them to wear shorts outside the office?

From RTE.ie five minutes ago:
“The new season was launched by the new Managing Director of Television, Glen Killane who confirmed RTÉ’s new afternoon schedule for the coming year. Two new programmes have been slated in with Maura Derrane anchoring the new ‘4 Daily’ which will be followed by ‘Daily Extra’ presented by new ‘Rose of Tralee’ host Daithi Ó Se and Claire Byrne.”

“Now, while it’s easy to criticise politicians, we must also reflect on our own behaviour as citizens. Why is there so much public tolerance for corruption? Why don’t we ask more questions or challenge authority? Why do we accept the consensus without demanding to know the agenda of those driving it?“
Oh dear, we think we know where this is going…
“The truth is that we have low expectations, and we are lazy.“
Gah. Busted.

But she was given some “dirty looking stones” from Liberian dingbat Charles Taylor.
Ms Campbell, was the dirt rhesus negative or rhesus positive?
