So he's still lying? Anyone surprised?

Politicians in ireland rarely resign, we know this. And when they do it's usually at the end of a long drawn out "will he won't he" saga

However what really annoys me is that when shit like this happens it really seems to be a case of "he broke no rules" (think of Inky in SF) or there isn't power to remove him from the Dail (think of Mick Wallace, tax dodging, lying scum bag)

The 2nd point is probably the most depressing, how the fuck is there not power to kick someone who as a director of a company knowingly set out to fuck over revenue

Probably because if you were able to rake over the coals of past misdeeds, you would have no problem getting rid of all your political opponents. This country probably doesn't have enough power hungry but squeaky clean individuals to fill Leinster House. Tax and welfare fraud are the national pastimes, so we can at best hope that our politicians have had a change of heart in the public interest after taking office, not that they've never been low down cheatin' toe rags.

Wallace gets his car towed.

Not too worried about that to be honest.

What I annoyed about is him owing so much money but still carrying on as though he is a wealthy man flying out to Poland for a match. I don't care how long ago he booked it, that flight and accommodation in Poland wouldn't be cheap during the Euro2012 cup.

I know of another guy (up and coming in the FF movement) who bet big on commercial property on the outskirts of a midlands town and now supposedly hasn't two sous to rub together who is currently in Poland supporting the team.

Elsewhere I see evidence of people who I know to be poor men living the high life they had become accustomed too and wonder will they ever clear their debts if they continue to live beyond their means.

except that, it would appear, clare daly who is ex aer lingus got him the spot (at least that seems to be the inference from other articles).
There was a small article in the sunday times reporting that she verbally attacked a press photographer who was taking a picture of wallace as he left the dail last week.

I read that elsewhere. Didn't want to drag her in to it as reporting of her is making people jump to conclusions.

It does show his sense of entitlement. "Why should I have to pay for my parking like everyone else!"

I could lose my house over tax cheat Mick Wallace



What chance of him getting his money? Sweet F.A.!!!

How anyone can support this chancer anymore is beyond me. He pretends he is sorry with his puppy dog look and his Béal Bocht. Meanwhile he is creating a nice little nest egg out of the reach of his creditors.

He got in by promising to be different to what went before, for new, fair politics and the like. He is no different, he is worse - we've not seen neck like it since the thieving pillocks of the 80's, Haughey et al.

wallace resigns from technical group.

he did pay off some of his creditors....just ask his brother

Who is leaking all the Wallace stuff - is it Rabo, the Receiver, a Wexford enemy?
The papers are a little too well informed.

It would seem our Worzel Gummidge lookalike had made more than a few enemies.
His pontificating must be especially nauseating to those debtors, debtors whom, it would seem, know where the bodies are buried.

Meh, most is basic research.

Next week someone will point out that he funded the football pitch from company loans (to the Wexford Yutes FC LTd subsidiary) not his personal pocket.

Yeah, like many of those other endowments made by the great and good for personal aggrandisement.

I don't know whether Gene Kerrigan has lost his marbles, owes Mick Wallace money or lives in a parallel universe. He has written this absolute rubbish in support of Wallace in todays sindo.

http://www.independent.ie/opinion/analysis/one-man-can-stop-corruption-wallace-3147432.html

He supports Wallaces independent sartorial vision with gusto. He glosses over Wallaces recent chagrain at having his tax evasion having been discovered. He ignores Wallaces reported asset stripping of his company knowing it was trading at a loss. His 'enhanced' salary package, his 'sale' of company property to family members dispite his company trading at a loss. And he thinks Wallace is the 'man' to bring in an anti corruption bill?

Kerrigan is symptomatic of the useless journalists in Ireland, who have allowed dishonesty to thrive, because the 'rogue' is a colourful character. People will learn that colourful characters are usually colourful at other peoples expense.


Wake up Kerrigan!
