- TWO Independent TDs have clashed in the Dáil, with one resorting to a foul-mouthed tirade against the other.
Thomas Pringle of Donegal had just begun to speak on the report of the consultative forum on security when Danny Healy-Rae of Kerry began raising a matter relating to his constituents’ .
Mr Pringle had just begun saying: “It’s no secret -” when Mr Healy Rae began to shout.
He was heard interrupting, referring to the “people of Kerry” who were not being listened to, either “today, tomorrow or any other day.”
An irritated Mr Pringle turned in his direction and said: “Well it’s obvious you don’t f-----g listen to anything anybody says.
“So if next time you open your f---ing ears instead of your mouth, you might understand what people are saying.”
Mr Healy-Rae had earlier spoken about people being relocated to Killarney, Co Kerry, “and we don’t know where they are coming from.”
Mr Pringle said he wished to be “totally disassociated” from those comments, which he thought “an absolute disgrace.”
It appears it was this rebuke that prompted Mr Healy Rae to interrupt Mr Pringle’s speech to continue arguing his case.
Mr Healy Rae reacted with bad grace when asked for his reaction by the Irish Independent last night.
He said: “All I’ll say is that all I ever expected from a pig is a grunt.
“I am entitled to my views.” Mr Pringle was not immediately available for comment in response.
Mr Healy Rae later called to say that his comment on the pig’s grunt was “off the record,” when it had not been.
He said he had been irritated and provoked, and that maybe it would not now be best to print the remark. He was told it was on the record, but his efforts to walk it back to some degree would also be recorded.
The F-bomb has hardly been used in the Dáil since the infamous case of former Green Party TD Paul Gogarty.
At this same time of year, shortly before Christmas in 2009, a needled Gogarty turned on former Labour Party TD and said “F--- you, Deputy Stagg.”
The exchange - in a debate on a Social Welfare Bill began with Mr Stagg questioning Mr Gogarty’s sincerity.
Mr Gogarty calmly and deliberately responded: "With all due respect, in the most unparliamentary language, f--- you Deputy Stagg. F--- you."
He immediately withdrew the remarks and apologised, while acting Ceann Comhairle Michael Kennedy was nonplussed as to what to do.
The incident lives on through social media and handicapped subsequent attempts by Mr Gogarty to return to frontline politics.
Deputy Stagg has since retired.
Yet the Healy Rae's have no issues with letting out multiple properties, to be used to house immigrants 🙄
Very true,all full of shit,people of kerry,think he cares
Disroying the west name game,
Well done 👍
Thomas pringle an angel woke
Father. Ted
Man speaks thw TRUTH
I thought Danny believed in God.
These are what we call in Irish parlance "Cute Hoors" pretending to stand up for the little man espousing platitudes while all the time getting kick backs and profits from the numerous enterprises (or rackets) they've got going on in Kerry.
Nothing compares to the biggest racket in the Dail.
Bullshit 😊
The Dail practically empty as usual, absolute joke!
Absentee landlords!
Most parliaments are fairly empty during debates. Only the people who want to speak show up for those. Anyone else there without a task would just be twiddling their thumbs.
The place is packed out whenever there's a vote held.
Now this is Entertainment at its Best
No decorum in our national parliament. It's become like a town county council 😔
I'm sure Mr pringles constituents will be very interested to hear he wants no halt to the refugees and vote accordingly!
I'd swap 500,000 right-wing nutcases for 500,000 Syrian refugees any day of the week.
Did everyone miss the f-bomb from Pringle? Not sure what his actual rebuttal was.. didn't deal with the issue at all
They can say fuck*** in parlement ?
It's a national disgrace, no respect for our national parliament.
I wish we had him in our constituency
Classic Donegal response 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Can you elaborate on what that means
The thing about Pringle is once he pops, he just can't stop.
Will done Danny
Is Thomas Pringle actually Brendan Grace
Very low talk out of pringle in the dail-not the street hes on,its he whos a disgrace
It has reached the point in Irish politics, that Danny Healy Rae is the only telling truth.
Catherine Connolly is also very good. She's an Independent.
WELL SAID. PEOPLE HAVE TO BE VETTED
Pringles father, 😮😮
IRISH LIVES MATTER
Well done Danny about time yous stood up for the Irish people
100% right Danny
Quite right Danny. Oh Danny boy the pipes the pips are calling.,.... From glen to Glen and down the"smiling" valley wall ...... The valet as American cinematography teaches us does not take long at all to live the American dream. Mighty Italian, Irish, Greek, etc did indeed live the dream and As Kennedy proved....grandparents founding Irish immigrants and Irish eyes were smiling when the family did well for themselves in their new homeland.
Wasbt he right we have got it in the neck a school teacher killed , a baby girl stabbed and three babies stabbed and a child worker attacked
I don’t know what he said SUBTITLES PLEASE H RAes speak their own language but understands the wink and the nod 😉 brown envelope ✉️
Up Kerry. As for Donegal i dont know , if their political representatives are anything to go by.
Good man healy ray
Healy ray is right
Stirring the sh*t and making a few quid.
Irish politics just like British politics is now just a bunch of outlandish agendas.
Good man Danny 👏👏👏
😂😂😂😂
what is going on someone can tell me
@@SemharEriSome released lunatic espousing guff which sounds like ledgeable English but really sounds like a crowd of words put through a shredder.
Healy is right
And the Dail was empty of course. Well said Danny
Thomas Pringle ,who he , never heard of the guy before is this his clame to fame.
If there was any MP caught swearing (especially an F Bomb) in the UK House of Commons, he'd be removed on the spot by the speaker, later suspended, and maybe more later
We’re not in the UK thankfully
In Ireland,if a politician told people they could only have 12 people attend a relatives funeral
with social distancing for public health reasons
and then himself had a party a bloody party with drinking and no social distancing,breaking all his own enforced restrictions,he would be
expelled from his party,forced to resign his seat and be criminally charged
Pringle,shag off fella
Healy Rea a total amadan
Are you sure?
He has a dam sight more money than me, or than you I ll bet.
For an amadàin
Pringles makes a better impression of a clown if you asked me!
He probably has a horse load of money too though!
😂😂😂😂😂
