Jim Higgins MEP - Irelands own idiot in Brussels

[Verhofstadt]

I attended in Brussels this evening the "Ireland in Europe" St Patricks Day reception.

Drink (supplied free by Guinness, Baileys and Bushmills.. many thanks to all!) was had and Martin Mansergh spoke some dronesome ********************e and some trad band (rossa?) played a few tunes, all was fine and well among us Euro elites.

The evening ended with the Gillian Van Turnout (nee Hassett of NYCI) calling our finest MEPS to the stage to lead the assembled masses in a rendition of our National Anthem.

Sadly Marian Harkin and Jim Higgins were the only two MEPs in attendance.

Jim Higgins in a fit of pique or humour perhaps connected to the generousity of the sponsors (I'm trying to be careful here) decided than from the stage, in front of the mic to bastardise the anthem by replacing the Fail with a big shout of "GAEL" and then proceeded to murder the rest of the admitted poor tune that is our anthem.

This was not a Fine Gael event, it wasn't even an Irish only event.. it was our big day in Brussels and this gombeen comes out with I'm sure he'll term as 'only a bit of craic"

The man is an embarrassment to Fine Gael, Ireland and the European Parliament.

Small stuff in deed compared to the wider issues facing us but an example of how these gob********************es represent us in Brussels.

Joe Higgins?

No, Jim, what a gob********************e, but sure that's how they behave with a few free drinks.

Did you say this to him or just run off to the internet to voice your unhappiness?

Not ideal, but at least the other Crack heads weren't there.

Joe Higgins?

No, Joe Higgins is hardly going to stick Fine Gael into our anthem now was he?

Jim Higgins of Ireland North West was our man in Europe tonight.

Now I detest Fianna Fail, but our anthem is our anthem until that is we adopt Neil Hannon's fine tune.

Very true.

It's my party and I'll cry it out if I want to.

Jim needs to get a major kick up his ass.
