Biffo's holiday plans- press blackout. Will it work?

[towny]

Is he for real?

[Corcaigh33]

Is he supposed to tell the press where is he off on holidays as Taoiseach?

Nah I didn't think so either so I'd say he is definitely for real.

I dont see a problem with this either, fair enough he's the Taoiseach, but he is allowed, like any other citizen to enjoy a bit of privacy on his holidays. As for the length of them etc., thats a completely different issue I'm afraid.

Is it not acceptable for him to have a few weeks privacy, or did he he give that up when he took the job??

IMO I think it's only fair that he got two weeks to himself with his family out of the public eye.

In a year when the Irish tourism business is bleeding, do need to know if he is staying in Ireland or going abroad?

Indeed, the nature of his annual family holiday is a private issue. For all his faults, I doubt he is skiving when the Dail isn't sitting.

Off to a fat farm for obese kids and a cure in case he turns gay after the Sarkozy kissses, he looked like he enjoyed it and do you honestly think one pair of Speedos would cover his ass, at least a pair for each cheek and some back-up.
The hair-cut though is a definite improvement.

Maybe he has taken precautions following Bertie Ahern's narrow-escape from 60's British pop-siren Lulu in Kerry last year ?

Apparently, she jumped out of bushes and made a run at him. Bertie is said to have remarked afterwards that after having dumped two blonde women already, "the last ting I need is a bluddy third!"


Given that Cowen, like Bertie, oozes roughly 20 stone of sex-appeal, maybe he is wise to take this precaution?

Yes, he did. We know where Bush is every minute of the day (alas) and as BC gets a stonk more than GB ....
