Mary Lou destroys Joan

Yes I do. A graduate of a fee paying school would be embarrassed to admit he worked in the Service.

but do they not fill ranks in the legal and financial sectors? and then transfer over when some higher profile job comes up. no way do i think theyd go in and sit the civil service exams with all the other plebs and work their way up.

No they don’t.

oh ok then. i heard otherwise.

@maroonandwhite[/USER] must be concussed after the battering he has just received from [USER=706]@Fagan ODowd

Politicians are different. Usually coffin surfing teachers.

I think @maroonandwhite has completely underestimated the effect of golf on the state of the country.

ah that’s ok so.

Cowen went to Roscrea College

Fee paying schools, golf and rugby supporters (prior to the Newstalk generation) filled the banks, other financial houses/brokers, solicitors and any institute or organisation with royal such as the likes of ‘Royal society of chartered surveyors’ etc etc and this led to a old boys club of money grabbing west brits cunts.

The civil service is full of dense muldoons whose parents knew or canvassed for the local T.D at the time and so were sent to Dublin with a slap and the promise of a start.

What chance had Ireland?

Sinn Fein as a party both north and south is full of highly intelligent and educated young people with social conscience and republican beliefs that means something. At last we may have a chance.

that list is fine but nobody on it was there pre 2010 - we need the list from 2000 to 2009 but I suspect very few went to private schools

Main issue in public service is that people are rewarded for not making a decision rather than making a decision - no decision is therefore a decision.

We also end up with too many teachers as politicians because of how the system is set up to allow for career breaks etc which a person in private sector cannot avail of to same extent if at all.

Are these the same foreigners who took the grass from our mouths as the potatoes went rotting in the ditches?
Ah the English are gone, Bull!!
Gone - cos I drove them out. Me and my kind. Gone - but not forgotten, Flanagan.

source?

O’Snodaigh is a teacher

Dessie Ellis is a TV repair man

Jonathan O’Brien - director of Cork City FC

Pearse Doherty seems to have dropped out of engineering in college

Not seeing any difference from other parties. I suspect if you are ambitious and see a career in politics then SF as party on the rise is the one to join at the moment.
