Enda Kenny and Joan Burton

It is fascinating too see All political parties, but especially the government ones, reduce this [Irish Water crisis] down to people’s ability to pay. The Irish Water protests are not just about money….I took part in Saturday’s march in Blessington [Co Wicklow] on a matter of principle [as I can afford a charge] as did many of those walking alongside. That Enda Kenny, Joan Burton and others of their ilk don’t see this is not surprising. It’s called projection. But I have a feeling they have underestimated us for the last time…

FIGHT!

Fianna Fáil finance spokesman Michael McGrath

“[Fianna Fáil finance spokesman, Michael] McGrath said the number of Civil Ejectment Bills or repossession cases coming before Cork Circuit Court had increased dramatically since the beginning of last year.”

“He said that in the first six months of 2013 there were 44 repossession bills, which rose to 246 in the second half of the year and in the first six months of this year that had grown to 335 civil ejectment bills.”

There you go now.

Tony Hawk, in Dublin for the Websummit, did an impromptu demo in Bushy Park Skatepark [Terenure, Dublin 6] and skated with the locals – the crowd loved it. We tried this last year but it got rained out – this time we got the perfect day for it – he skated great and finished with a front flip at the end (last pic)…

Forty six, dude.
