DO NONE OF YOU ACTUALLY READ ... "we are sacrificing a basic human right to safely access the street for some and a major benefit to smaller businesses to facilitate one luxury business".SINCE WHEN IS IT A HUMAN RIGHT TO ACCESS A ROADWAY THAY WAS DESIGNED FOR TRAFFIC .Look at the attitude twords big employers who employ thousands of people ..Seems if you sell Vibrators or Clit rings from a Shop on South William Street you get prefrence over Brown Thomas who employ hundreds in the shop plus many more delivery staff .Fucking laughable A HUMAN RIGHT might extend to decent housing but wasting coin on blocking streets and bike lanes is more important .You wonder why I warn against a Political meltdown in this Country just like the UK and USA .Wake the fuck up .

It won't make any difference what we think Erm.This stuff is above our pay grade.Currently 250 a week for me.The only ones who give a fuk are a few journalists and people who should be watching Eastenders instead of the news.

In every fukkin thread yis are personalising issues when Leo or Eamon's successor will do the exact same thing with the same powers.Same with lads giving out about Kathleen Doyle.The person who replaced her did the exact same job in the same way.Something not right with yis.

Leos Successor will do nothing as FG wont be in Power Look at Britain or the USA Politics is changing our next Government will be Socialist SF/Lad /the 2 Green TDs and a few Social democrats .It will be a Monumental change in Irish Politics where neither FF/FG are in Government .What we have thought was the Norm will be looked back on as the Good times .The Lefties will destroy the Economy but so have the old Stagers .While your considering the Voltage of your new Electric Car some of us are considering the Caliber of our Weapons .Tomorrow never comes but Tomorrow will be tomorrow .Tanaista and Trump will effect your 250 euro a week lifestyle for a long time into the future y.You will learn all about it as you watch Emmerdale and Eastenders or whatever other stimulus you enjoy .

I dont think the shinners will need any help if the last election results are anything to go by.they would have walked in if they had of run more candidate's

Did ya see Meehawl spluttering and stammering on the 6 1 news when they were quizzing him. The fuckin hypocrisy of politicians never fails to amuse. If he was in opposition, he'd be baying for Leo's blood. Where the fuck is Mary Lou this last while? She's sending her minions out to do her bidding every day. I mentioned this over a week ago that she was conspicuous by her absence.

 It's a mole hill. He was the Taoiseach i.e. The Boss. He can do whatever he likes without telling anyone as long as he's not breaking the law.

The GP union at the centre of the Leo Varadkar leak controversy threatened to campaign against Fine Gael in local and general elections two months before he leaked the organisation a confidential pay deal for doctors.

The National Association of General Practitioners (NAGP) issued the stark warning to Fine Gael TDs on February 11, 2019 - three months before the local and European elections.

However, in April 2019, Mr Varadkar, who was then Taoiseach, leaked a copy of a contract the Government agreed with the Irish Medical Organisation (IMO) to the then NAGP president Dr Maitiú Ó’Tuathail, who was also a personal friend.

In the NAGP letter, which was signed by the union’s chief executive Chris Goodey, TDs were told that GPs intended to campaign against their local Fine Gael TDs, senators and councillors unless they were included in pay negotiations with the IMO on a new GP contract.


DID HE LEAK TO STOP THEM CAMPAIGNING AGAINST FG?  If this is true then he will have to Resign or be sacked .

AOIFE MOORE AND PAUL HOSFORD, POLITICAL CORRESPONDENTS
The union which received a copy of a confidential document from then Taoiseach Leo Varadkar threatened to tell its members to campaign against Fine Gael, just two months beforehand.

Chris Goodey, then Chief Executive of the NAGP wrote to TDs including the former chairman of the Fine Gael parliamentary party and current junior ministerm Martin Heydon, in February 2019, issuing the warning.

In the letter, Mr Goodey said that members could be told to put posters in waiting rooms ahead of last year's local and European elections due to the union being locked out of the negotiation of the new contract, which Mr Varadkar sent to NAGP President Dr Maitiú Ó Tuathail the following April, after it had been agreed with the rival Irish Medical Organisation (IMO).

"At the request of our members, the National Council of the NAGP met this weekend.

"Our members have advised us that they intend to individually commence campaigning against their local Fine Gael TDs, Senators and Councillors, unless the current situation is corrected.


"This activity could involve up to 2,100 individual GPs informing their patients personally about the health policies of Fine Gael TDs and councillors in the upcoming local and general elections, and the detrimental effect that these policies are having on patient services in the community.

"Our members advise us that they will inform their patients of the failings in the health service and the role of Fine Gael in the demise of community and GP services.

"This problem of proper GP representation will not go away unless the NAGP becomes an equal party to the process of change."

Mr Varadkar provided Dr Ó Tuathail with the document between April 11 and 16, a move the now Tánaiste accepts was "not best practice".

Mr Varadkar will address the Dáil on the matter on Tuesday but has received the backing of Taoiseach Mícheál Martin, who on Monday said he has confidence in the Fine Gael leader.


A COPY of the letter is up on the net .Leo now looks like he was blackmailed and gave in .2/1 he is gone by December 1st as Tanaiste .This letter is a Gamechanger .I think he could be gone before the Dail Bar opens for Breakfast Pints tomorrow .Dont discount he goes on Morning Ireland and announces he is retiring from Politics and returning to Medicine .

[john m]

The Smell of Silence makes you think the Knives are being sharpened just in case Leo cant wriggle off the Hook this afternoon .Village Mag say they have more shit on the Good Doc .Watch Harris his best buddy was Franny Fitz who Leo shafted twice he didnt even give her a Nomination for Big Phils Gig after he shafted Big Phil .Makes you wonder who in FG ratted on Leo? Nothing on RTE or the printed press explaining about the Docs Union threatening to campaign against FG?

[watty]

Indo seems to disagree with you:

Fianna Fáil rides to Varadkar’s rescue in row over leak but Tánaiste warned to back Government

Varadkar may be too big to fail or Fianna Fáil too low in polls but Tánaiste looks set to fight another day

If Vlad (& the Govt) go, that could mean a Sinn Fein Govt.  That'll cause a lot of people to pause with the knives?

[john m]

Watty that Paper was put to bed last night before the Blackmail story broke .NOBODY has appeared on media today backing the Good Doctor .If FF/Greens/Sf /all other TDs think that Leo gave out the info for Political Gain for his Party then I can see the Greens saying we cannot support LEO in Government that then lets Harris or Paggo or Covney place the noose around his neck and que up to kick the stool .LEO might be faced with Quit as in Resign from the Dail or force a collapse of the Government .His Career is finished anyway .He was the biggest losing Party leader in the last Local elections and General Elections .The shine has worn of his shite .I still know a few in FG who were discusted they could not get rid of him after the General election as there were discussions to form a government going on .I would bet a small amount the information about Leo and the letter came from a FG insider .Big Phil and Francis Fitz and Enda have a lot of friends in FG and Leo shafted the three of them .Your biggest enemy is your own team mates not the opposition .Add in his attack on Holouhan two weeks before lockdown .The Good Doctor seems to have a lot of enemies .

[john m]

Who lobbs the Hand Grenade Brid Smith or Boyd Barrett ? They are very Quiet looks like one of them might have the other Emails or Tweets and will let rip later in the Dail .Cant Remember the last time Boyd Barrett was so Quiet .

[john m]

WHERE IS LEO SUPPOSED TO ADDRESS THE DAIL @ 4.20 Not 1 FG TD in the Dail .

[john m]

Dogherty could Knee Cap you with a remark Brilliantly kicking Leo all over the Dail .

[john m]

Now Aidon O Reardon is kicking the poor cunt all over the place .Leo says he and the other Doctor never used Tongues they were not that sort of friends .

[john m]

His position in untenable cant see how the Cabinet can support him .Looking at Harris bet he wishes he was allowed to stab the cunt in the back .Mc Sharry .Baby Dev and Mc Guinness are going to have a Fun Day with this .
