To understand politics in this banana republic listen to Humphreys trowelling on the regional accent, there's no such thing as national politics just hillbillies gorging on the parish pump parochial trough 🐽... Utterly depressing
Only biased RTE could turn a discussion on the horrors inflicted in Ukraine into a shinner bashing exercise.. Dreadful shite again 💩
Best show on RTE either Radio or TV... What we have in Katie is akin to "Hens Teeth" a unbiased investigate RTE presenter... Please send a copy of this to Joe Duffy & Claire Byrne...
durkin is such a windbag
that priest loves to talk
fg rep was a real turn off. Came across very ignorant and rude.
19:20 durkan thinks other hospitals that came in under 2 billion are Mickey mouse hospitals?
y'know. if you have a couple of shows where brexit isn't discussed, we won't be mad. Every other show is discussing it in the same way. rise of the right in Europe, wealth inequality, the continuing yellow vest protests - all valid issues. but no, let's play brexit bingo again....off the top....it's 'back-stop'
brexit - again. zzzzz
