Mr. John Gormley T.D. - The Man From Del Monte?

[MacEHaVelly]

The Greens are not even in government, and yet I AM sick of them!

Why is it any time they are interviewed or photographed by the media they appear either A, on a bike-usually the fold-up ones?

B, Surrounded by shrubbery( even if on a train?),

C, Having coffee(fair trade only) with Duncan Stewart talking about how their new Toilet washes their clothes and doubles up as voga lava lamp or pressure cooker?-All powered by the solar panel that's attached to their golden retriever.

D, Swimming in Sandymount- haven't these people heard of Spain?

E, Walking in Dublin bay( noticeably, not on Dublin Bay-just yet) wearing ridiculous white suits straight from the set of 'My Fair Lady'.

And what was that silly umbrella seance for? : Fearing a techni-colour yawn from the Gods for stomach turning creeping jaaaaaysusness? Methinks so.

Time for Action!!!!!!!!! :idea:

As i type, my midget slave is undoing the catalytic converter from my Humvee (plus cleaning it of sand and the odd stray umbrella...?), My 7th holiday home in the Burren has been rented to the Ward and Mcdonough Families- have a ball, lads!

I dumped a very dead sheep into the neighbouring local water scheme, and you thought Cryptosperidium was nasty? :twisted:

I just bought the Hill of Knowth and leased it to Tacobell 8) ; please, please John Gormley, The Man from Del Monte- say No!!!!!!!!!!!!

Regards,
A Citizen.


p.s Am I alone? :

no

But as recent negotiations show, the Man from Del Monte doesn't always say yes...

(Predictable, I know.)

Just the Greens mimicing Jack Vettriano - someone (possibly every Green) has one of his posters on the bedroom wall. Believe it or not, this painting is titled "Mad Dogs" - apt or what?

Imitation may be the sincerest form of flattery - but this really is "Art Lite".

“The Man In The White Suit” a 1951 Ealing Comedy starring Alec Guinness.

Guinness plays Stratton, a researcher working in a textile mill who invents an incredibly strong fibre which repels dirt and never wears out. From this fabric he makes a suit which is brilliant white because it cannot absorb dye. Stratton is hailed as a genius until both management and the trade union realise the consequence of his invention - consumers will only need to purchase once (how many permanently clean white suits would you need?), then demand will drop and put the textile industry out of business. The business owners try to trick Stratton into signing away the rights to his invention but he refuses. Managers and workers try to shut him up, but he escapes.
The climax sees Stratton running through the streets at night in his white suit, chased by both managers and employees. As they close in, the suit begins to fall apart as the chemical structure of the fibre breaks down over time. The mob, realizing that his yarn has a flaw, rips off his suit and he’s left standing in his underwear.

In the current political scenario, John Gormley plays the man in the White Suit. Will history repeat itself? Or has he already signed away his rights to the magic formula? :

[mollox]

Or is John Gormley modelling himself on former BBC man Martin Bell, “the man in the white suit”, who ousted disgraced Conservative MP Neil Hamilton in the 1997 UK General election?

Is it an omen that Bell was defeated in the 2001 election (albeit in a different constituency)?

How hard will it be to keep the white suit clean when you’re sitting and supping with the devil?

Yes, evidently very alone. There are a number of websites that may be able to help. Might I recommend this?

And for the record, that event was absolutely nothing to do with the Green Party, it was organised by the Stop Climate Chaos Coalition, an organisation set up by environmental and development NGOs to promote a Climate Bill for Ireland and to inform people about the adverse affect the developed world's carbon dioxide emissions will have on the developing world. John was just there as a participant

So many/most of the participants would not be members of the Green Party or have voted for the party last month? Fair enough.
