Default Should the Late Late Show be renamed the FF/PD Show?

Willie O Dea and Nicky Byrne appeared on the Late Late recently. The Minister For Justice and Excuses appears tonight. Presumably the Opposition will get the right of reply. Otherwise The Late Late Show will become part of the Government's election campaign.

Well was Nicky Byrne talking about politics, hardly!!! Im sure it was all about Westlife and whatnot and perhaps the reason RTE has so many Government guests is because the rest (i.e Inda and co.)are the equal to a wet dish rag when it comes to charisma.

If they had any good or remotly interesting ideas on the major issues Im sure they'd be invited on, but they don't.

Since when were FG the 'Opposition'?

Presumably, the LLS show takes the view that there isn't much point in having any one from FG on because they support all the same policies that the Government do.

No he had invented some kind of road safety system, which means he had an idea of an important policy area, which means he couldn't have been in FG.

Can people please save their witty one-liners for the body of posts rather than making unclear thread titles

9/10.... a new humble Tanaiste
'I want Ireland to be great'..... there's a controversial one if ever i heard it

the public opinion of judges just went from hero to zero

you mean like the PD's have in education, FG do have policies on transport/road safety, unlike the PD's who are just a bunch of morons.

Just on tonights LLS, I thought it was quite interesting the amount of texts that were sent in lambasting the minister.
