    Apparently, there was a 're-enactment' at the Green Conference at the weekend (Jeebus, what have I unleashed?), according to Miriam Lord anyway...
    It was gone midnight, as the Young Greens amused themselves by re-enacting last week’s knuckledraggers-of-Cowen episode at the Fianna Fáil ardfheis, by the time word of Go-Go’s latest dark hour of the soul reached the ears of the press. The aforementioned dramatic exercise involved a flash mob of Young Greens rushing RTÉ’s David Davin-Power and forming a “doughnut” of zombies around him. This recreated that now famous tableau of the unblinking FF delegates, who stood around the political correspondent as he did a live broadcast from the conference hall. Many photographs were taken, and Davin-Power was such a good sport that the Young Greens bought him a bottle of champagne.

    But then there was the second piece of speech-related suspense. But the man at the centre of it wasn't the Green leader, but RTE's David Davin Power. The unflappable broadcaster's post-address report from the Fianna Fail Ard Fheis while surrounded by what appeared to be extras from Michael Jackson's Thriller video, has become the toast of YouTube, racking up 18,000 hits.

    Plucked

    Would the Green Party members be able to emulate this feat? Alas, it seemed as if the fun police in Montrose had other ideas. Much to everyone's chagrin, David was plucked from traditional ard fheis broadcast position in the middle of party delegates, and was secreted behind a wall of screens with two security people to keep wannabe zombies at bay.

    But then, a few hours later while David was having a quiet post-conference beer, he was surrounded by a giggling bunch of Young Greens. "Can we do the zombie thing with you, pleeeeaase?" they chorused.

    The redoubtable David stepped up to the plate. A bottle of beer doubled up as a microphone as the gaggle of Greens struck poses all around him. And these being well-brought up young Greens, they politely presented their hero with a bottle of champers.

    Ive never seen so a collection of slack jawed hillbilly hicks in my life.
    This is real Fianna Fail, and the reason the world is laughing at us.

    Interesting that so many are from Offaly which must be the home of FF hillbilly hicks.

    I'd set the dog on them only they would probably bite back.
