Reading the other thread about Arse-la Handagain's report about soon-to-be ex-Ministers buying new private cars reminded me of these true stories ....

1. RTE reporter Seán O'Rourke outside the Dáil as the defeated FG Junior Minster, Mary Flaherty, prepares to head for her Finglas home ... 'Mary Flaherty how does it feel to be facing your last ride in a State car ?...

2. FG's Paul Connaughton (East Galway) upon hearing the names of some right latchykos appointed as Junior Ministers by Charvet Haughey back in 1981 ... 'Jays, there'll be fellas drivin' home tonight in State cars with their trousers round their ankles so's they can feel the leather against their bare arsses....'
