I think you are attributing far too much intelligence to people that are simply not very intelligent. The majority of politicians are as thick as shit, their ability to yap is like lipstick on a pig. Remember these effectively are the same lads who were telling us in 2006/7 that there was no housing bubble, prices would just rise forever, and then were caught by surprise when the market collapsed.

Very unfair on Leitrim
what figures you expecting this evening Copper? 800?

I believe we’ll be in Level 4 nationwide by close of play on Friday.
I’m expecting 743 cases today. The powers that bears spooked.
