The man is as innocent as yourself.

I needed a good laugh!

Ferris and innocent in the same sentence!

In advance of two general elections in a row the same candidate has been arrested. In neither case has he been charged but has suffered a lot of adverse publicity

Is this

a) A coincidence?
b) Political policing?

Just look at some of the antics by Finna Fial members over recent years, an absolute disgrace!

I hope that spelling is a pun i'm not getting!

I was referring to the topic of this thread, which you seem to have difficulty with or are you seizing on the opportunity to have a pop off of Ferris. Why don't you start a thread and have a pop?

why not Riadach.. he admitted having one glass of wine, and two pints of beer over a 7 hour period if my memory serves me correct. Given the bodys ability to dispense of alcohol, its highly likely that he proved negative.

There seems to be some issue around the fact that he was arrested at the time, which some people believes confers guilt, but again IIRC he wasn't, he merely went to the station with the Gardai as he was unable to provide a breath sample due to his asthma

He shouldn't have been drinking three alcoholic drinks and then driving home anyway, however spread out they were. I've no sympathy at all. Would it have killed him to have a pint of water instead?

No difficulty at all with the topic, thanks. I suppose you are right, I was having a pop at Ferris.... a what? A pop - bang! bang!

[Riadach]

a likely story. yet all the english is miraculously spelt correctly. Divine intervention i'd bed. Don't worry, if you are, as your posts suggest, an sf supporter, you can be comfortable in the thought that your leader does little better.

Unless of course by 'ba mhaith liom ceapann francie molloy' he really did mean 'i would like he appoints francie molloy' rather than 'ba mhaith liom francie molloy a cheapadh'. Almost sounds like a filipino hooker.
