Jump To Comment: 1 2Glad to see Joseph Gannon is doing so well in Dublin. Makes a change from kicking people out of his way while he clung on to the front of a JCB bucket in Mayo I suppose.
Great use of Garda logic there about the fast food joints not having the capacity to deal with people so they go home instead as they are frustrated. Wonderful words from a sagely man.
"...Ireland has an alcohol problem ..."
Perhaps, maybe, but whose? The fat greasy profiteers who rake in the dosh from its sale?
The government, which sees the answer to any 'problem' as simply banning it as if this will eradicate it from existence?
Perhaps the real problem is the state education system - for all these thick sh**s had to pass through it.
