I could answer your question above, but you could too if you were trying to argue in good faith. You're not. No more than Varadkar does hen he introduces the.non sequitur of Sinn Fein every time his failure, incompetence, or corruption are pointed out.
Can we get a list please?

There’s no way I can be expected to make a decision unless it’s neatly compiled for me

The shinners are so afraid of Leo that they will accuse him of just about anything to get rid of him.
They can't back it up but sure so what any snide, disparaging remark will do.
The shinners are very good at personal attacks.
BTW Leo's PR machine doing Trojan work today announcing all those jobs at Intel.

Were you privately educated then?
Or are there other groups that fit your assumptions.

Sinn Fein/IRA getting a foothold on Babbling 'brook eh?
Nothing can stop them now!
You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,

Well there are plenty of them on the supposed left who were privately educated to chose from!

How did "Friday's Rave" move into the political leanings of Dublin's private schools and the pros and cons of the Shinners?

There are plenty of forums around that focus on the discussion of politics; babbling 'brook is not one of them.

In addition, the "Rave" in the topic title here refers to the word in the context of admiration or excitement, not in the context of "ranting and raving". Please keep discussion of politics for other more appropriate forums.

I'm going to do a Friday Rave on a Thursday because I don't give a f%~k about the rules.

Alex Turner's lyrics - Its actually difficult to pick a top 5, let alone a best song. Love is a Laserquest, maybe?

He's a very adaptable songwriter in terms of musical style too. There's not many that can shift gears so adeptly. He went from writing 'I Bet You Look Good On the Dancefloor' at some point in his teens to "Flourescent Adolescent' at 20 and a year later was putting out the first Last Shadow Puppets album which sounded like some 1960s musical score, but with brilliant songs like Standing Next to Me and My Mistakes Were Made for You.

Oh and his last album - which is entirely about a hotel on the moon - is class.

Trip to the Aviva planned on Monday for my first shot of vaccine.

Not sure if it's a Leinster Jersey day or an Ireland Jersey day.

Excellent! Why not both?

Make sure you have plenty of paracetamol to hand. I got the AZ jab on Monday and I was floored from mid-night and all day Tuesday. Arm still feels like someone is driving a nail into it with a hammer.

Yeah, I had the AZ jab a few months back and it took it out of me. My wife had the Pfzier jab and had no issues. But then my grandparents and parents have had the AZ jab and had no issues, so I think the younger you are the harder it hits.
