The Fine Gael thread

[foxcommander]

What's next for the current government?

Phil Hogan denying he signed off on water charge startup costs of 40 million then has to backtrack.

Then we have Frank Feighan elbowing a elderly man in the stomach about 5 times because he tries to ask the taoiseach a question.

god forbid enda kenny has to think on his feet.

If this isn't enough to show the irish public what their government and elected officials really thinks of them then nothing will. This is the same way as Fianna Fail behaved last time around. There is no difference and certainly no accountability.

The "elderly man" is a By Election candidate and former Co goalkeeper.

Either way no older gentleman deserves to get a few chops the ribs in such a manner. I hope Feighan gets done for assault.

Jobs for the boys...Transparency is key at FG?

Fianna Fáil's Barry Cowen also said this afternoon that it is time for Mr Quinlan to "get out of the car or get off the board". LOL

What I can't fathom is mghu's 'disappearance' since before the local elections in May. He was good craic trying to defend his party's ways. What would he make of the mess they're currently in?

[Rossfan]

Maybe he got elected to Mayo County Council 

[Farrandeelin]

Maybe he got elected to Mayo County Council 

Or else he got a job by being Enda's crony!!!

Did anyone find it ironic when Enda Kenny complained about Sinn Fein trying to cover up a rape? Some would say he's doing the same. Some would say he's been covering up the financial rape of this country's citizens for the last 3 years.

If you were born in the last 3 years, this would be fair comment.

I'd say you're the only one who thinks it's ironic.
We were told what it would cost the Citizens of this State back at the time of the bail out in 2010 when FF had to take the blinkers off ( remember Brian Lenihan's comment in late 08 about the "cheapest bank bail out in history" of around €2.8Bn )

At least Fianna Fail tried to charm and used some lubricant.

Indeed, makes you wonder about the promises being made by those currently in opposition, doesn't it?

[manfromdelmonte]

Convenient FG and FF are pushing this issue right now.
To deflect problems with Irish Water? Poor by election results?

Yes of course, sexual abuse stories linking heads of parties are non-events really.

Imagine the Shinners if Kenny or Martin were involved.
