Account dated from February 2009. Cosgraveâs goon squad donât take kindly to questions.
Cosgrave called Muslims âsand n*****sâ and âtowel headsâ while editor of Piranha magazine at Trinity. Could be tricky for him to explain given heâs going to Qatar next year.
Then again, probably not, itâs not as if the Qataris give a fuck about racism if youâre on their team.
Paddyâs pirates made that tweet disappear like the Mary Celeste.
Paddyâs coming for all the centrist dads. You better throw away the log book of your Audi and hide the Coldplay CDs.

Gas the way the chaps so rattled at Paddyâs anti-government stance arenât able to play the ball but are instead steaming in with two footed challenges on the man.
Itâs almost as if they canât tackle the reasonable and substantiated criticisms he has made on the govt parties and their inexhaustible list of corruption and cronyism.
Paddy makes some good points but heâs a complete cunt.
He might be.
But these same chaps lining up the two footed challenges wouldnât be here only for he made valid criticisms of FFG. They canât refute those so steam in on Cosgrave himself.
Donât know the man at all but I think the work he (and others) do on exposing the depths and extent of political corruption in Ireland is vital for a functioning democracy. We have many established media news outlets who consistently bury and fail to report on govt corruptions and scandals, that does not auger well for a civilised democracy.

Maybe they are going in two footed after those tweets about the guards.
Or the tweets about all the dead nurses

Odd that those same people have very little issue with the govt making thousands of families homeless so landlords and vulture funds can profiteer.
The point Iâm making is that those people outraged by Cosgrave seem to be more so on the basis of their political agenda and how it differs to Cosgraves, rather than a moral standpoint.
Nope. Iâd imagine itâs to do more with political agendas. Are those same people outraged by tweets about dead nurses as outraged by govt still not paying over healthcare workers their bonuses?
Iâd be morally against Cosgrave because heâs a fucking cunt. He doesnât pay people he owes money to. He gets people to do shit for âexposureâ and âexperienceâ. Itâs exploitation. He tried to hold ireland to ransom. He lied about a heap of nurses dying to further his own agenda.
Having said that, he is uncovering a fine bit of cronyism and old corruption in ireland. I hope he continues that. Even the fact that it comes out years later will cause the current cunts some discomfort and make them think twice.
So, just like McGregor sending PPR to nursing homes during the pandemic, even an absolute arsehole of a cunt can inadvertently do a bit of good every now and then.

I have no issue with you thinking he is a cunt for valid reasons but the work he is doing on exposing corruption and cronyism is hugely positive from a societal viewpoint and somewhat redeemable.
In terms of cuntishness, Cosgrave is nowhere near a person like Micheal Martin and itâs the same people who defend the likes of Martin who are so vocal in their outrage at Cosgrave. The people so vocal about their dislike and mistrust of Cosgrave are the ones who will be defending or justifying the corruption and nastiness of the people Cosgrave is exposing.
Whatâs redeemable on Micheal Martin squandering millions of tax payers money to enrich himself and his family?
Whatâs redeemable about Micheal Martin lying at the Mahon tribunal and pocketing bungs from property developers?
Whatâs redeemable about Micheal Martin sending knowingly sending thousands of families to homelessness so he can protect the interests of landlords and property owners?
Whatâs redeemable about Micheal Martin politicising and exploiting victims of The Troubles with a shred of sincerity to those who lived in it and suffered from it, only to further his political agenda?
Whatâs redeemable about Micheal Martin and his Trump politics of attacking the opposition rather than addressing his own failures?
Whatâs redeemable about a man who gives a six figure salary (paid for by taxpayers) to a former editor of a right wing newspaper, with disgusting and highly racist takes, as his PR man?
Are you morally against Micheal Martin? Are you vocal about that?
The point Iâm making is heâs a complete cunt. I donât care who he votes for left, right or upside down.

The point Iâm making is that most people so vocal against Cosgrave are only so on the basis that he is exposing the bigger cunts they are completely silent on.
Ah so itâs clear who the freaks are in his comments with their Palestine and Celtic Park avatars thinking theyâre his mate.
All his good work is ruined by those tweets.
I see you arenât able to contend any of the stories The Ditch have ran.
All you can do is play the man and call people freaks. Not really an arbitrar of decency are you?
Projection is a terrible thing.
