    Because, when mandated to represent his constituency, he didn't desert them in a hissy fit. Don't get me wrong, I have no time for Lowry and his ilk, but Lee's resignation is putting a positive spin on them.

    More accurate to say the VOTERS were naive. Anyone wondering what voter apathy is?

    Lee was a chancer anyway, let's be honest. He wasn't a visionary economist. He just liked moaning about things, that's all he was good for.

    Listening to Joe Duffy show there, my God do you hear that whingeing auld blueshirt crying on the radio, Margaret something or other. If FG want do damage limitation the first thing they should is get that whingeing auld wan off the radio, then of course they should sack Kenny. Mind you probably too late for that. How are FG in crisis when the govt. are in such difficulties?

    George Lee was used by FG - his own words.

    Can anyone say he was much of a loss now that he's gone or much of a gain when he joined. What did he do?
