The sins of the father eh
Charlie doesnât really strike me as âhis fatherâs sonâ in that sense
Not great to be worse than the Royals
Just when FF and FG had turned things around this comes out. Never ending with these fuckers.
Wouldnât serve them solpadeine. Although it was ironic when the pharmacist said she was âjust asking questionsâ
Thatâs actually a mental story. How itâs not leading to more coverage is beyond me
A slow burner this one. Opposition looking for time to discuss this in the DĂ il. Both Martin and Varadkar are playing dumb on this and said they were not aware of this.
Another cover up and lessons will be learned while the taxpayer will no doubt pick up the tab and not one cunt will be held accountable.But GDP etc etc

Cat is out of the bag now though. It seems like a fucking disgraceful shitshow.

Is it? It seems like a standard legal tactic to me in an effort to minimise costs. Not particularly nice but sometimes hard decisions are hard and the choices either way were fairly unpalatable from a brief scan of the article.
Did we want the Gov opening up the financial floodgates in 2011 (loads of cash around then iirc) to something which they reckoned could be the equivalent of the cost of several childrenâs hospitals?

The HSE have operated this way for years in negligence cases. Leo promised to put an end to it years ago but itâs still going on.

I donât know what the right answer is but Iâm not sure there are any easy solutions to this kind of stuff
