Dublin TD asks locals to ‘bring your willies’ to community event

A spokesperson has confirmed that it is definitely a typo. Phew.

THERE WERE RED faces at Labour TD Eamonn Moloney’s office this morning as it emerged that a leaflet circulated at the weekend contained an awkward typo.

The flyer, advertising the official opening of a community garden, reminds locals to “bring your willies”.

A spokesperson for the TD confirmed that the leaflet had been issued at the weekend and it is “most definitely a typo”.

Major hat tip to the Ray D’Arcy Show, their listener Alan Reid and @willhanafin for spotting it.

    Typo? Surely this is proper order to remind the TDs to bring their willies and act like real men, if it wasn’t circulated in the flyer most would forget or stay home running around their fancy homes doing the helicopter with their willies.
