SPENDING ALL YOUR time telling people to vote Yes in the Seanad referendum can be a bit tiresome so Fine Gael Minister Richard Bruton and TD Eoghan Murphy chatted about television instead today.
Just kidding, there was a bit of chat about the referendum as Fine Gael unveiled a placard outside the Norwegian embassy on Dublin’s Molesworth Street to highlight how Ireland is apparently overrepresented when it comes to politicians.
Later as they carried the placard back to Leinster House (or at least to end of Molesworth Street before they passed it off to handlers) the Minister wanted to know if Murphy had seen Breaking Bad.
Murphy not only admitted that he hadn’t seen the Emmy-award winning series, he also hadn’t seen The Sopranos or The Wire.
Surely that is more troubling than Ireland having a third more national poiticians than any other European country of our size?

Breaking Bad is great tho
Gobsh**es.
No wonder people are voting no they don’t want to be associated with the muppets running the yes camp.
You don’t abolish an organ of state based on numbers, I guess they are meant to clap like seals and smile and nod for those insulting ”less politicians” posters? Treating the electorate like dribbling morons that’s a great strategy to get them to see your point of view.
Idiots.
Wonder if he has a tv licence or is he watching an illegal download
Jesus could you imagine Murphy at a party.
“Well Murph, did you see the game on the telly last night?”
“Nooo – its too popular!”
The dry shite.
As a Galway man once said to me ‘he’s so dry he’d fart flour’.
Vote yes despite these Muppets not No to spite them, Seanad =elitism
Have yuou read the info that came throgh the door they want the power to decide on future referendums as well VOTE NO
The substance of the argument is wrong. They ignore that nordic countries have large amounts of powerful local politicians. 1% of adult population in Sweden are politicians. In Ireland it’ll be 0.035% (after this government’s changes).
No need to let facts get in the way of a good photo op, tough.
The only BIG C is the one in front carrying the stupid photo op cardboard cut out!
Shouldn’t this trollbait be in the Daily Edge?
The government says vote yes so I’m definitely voting NO. Dont waste taxpayers money by putting literature thru my door cos I ain’t wasting my time reading it.
The Irish people should be breaking bad ,
Wonder was Susie there?
Faced with a long afternoon trapped in the house with her five children last Saturday, Mrs Walton decided on a quick excursion – a trip to Nairobi’s popular mall.
It’s the only place I can post an opinion.
What’s wrong with journalists are they drunk or stupid?? It’s Kenya !! Educate yourself’s , and help educate the population. Baa baa.
WHAT!
???
I think we’ve found Random Comment of The Week
Baa baa? So how does a person go about becoming a Shepherd? Is it a skill that you’re just born with?
Did I hear that right breaking bad was likened to big c….. That would scare me in a govt minister!
have your say
