The Daily PollANDERS BEHRING BREIVIK – the man who has admitted killing 77 people in Norway last summer – is giving evidence on the second day of his trial in Oslo.
Breivik, who is accused and has admitted to the worst atrocity in Norway since World War II, has been giving a statement to the court and will also give further evidence over the coming the days as will witnesses for his defence. Unlike other court proceedings, all of this will NOT be televised.
The reason given is that authorities do not wish to offer the 33-year-old a platform to air his views which he said led him to carry out the attacks on Oslo and the island of Utoya out of “necessity”.
Is the court right to do this or, given that other proceedings have been televised, should Brevik’s testimony be broadcast live?

Its very simple to see tell the difference….the southern Mr Tayto had an amusement park for all to enjoy….the Mr Tayto up north just says no to everything
@Dave Ryan: Also,Southern Mr.Tayto says “Top of the mornin!” whilst Northern Mr.Tayto says “What about ya!”
White bread, slice of cheese, bag of Tayto perfect
@Ronan Lawler: kerry gold butter
@joe celtic 1888: Barrys tea and Avonmore milk to wash it down.
@Ronan Lawler: No cheese! Fresh white bread, proper butter and Tayto Cheese & Onion!
@Ronan Lawler: Fresh white bread, mayonnaise and Tayto Chesse & Onion, lovely!!
No comparison. The real tayto is in the Republic. No comparison with the foreign brand. Of course when there is a United Ireland a new protocol will have to be signed. Let’s see what the dup will do. Boycott I think would be the best option.
@John Flanagan: only one of them is Irish
Could they not just put a bowler hat and sash on the northern Mr Tayto so we can tell them apart.
@Fr. Fintan Stack: Maybe only serve Coca Cola with Southern Tayto and Fanta Orange with Northen Iron Tayto
There is no such place as The Republic of Ireland
@Larry Ryan: …..sorry about this…but…..”Geopolitically, Ireland is divided between the Republic of Ireland (officially named Ireland), an independent state covering five-sixths of the island, and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom”
There has to be a way to work in both ‘King’ crisps, and Red Hugh O’Donnell’s crisps into this conversation #taytogato
@Phil O’ Meara: That would be fantastic if it could happen,Phil. Hopefully it’ll all be Hunky Dory in the end
@Larry Betts: wouldn’t that be the real McCoys?
Well played Tom.
“The Irish brand is currently owned by German food company Intersnack”… lol, not suprised.
Technically Tom is right..
Nordi Tayto has a ‘gone off’ taste yuck
have your say
