Don't be silly, you know, I know and everyone else knows that this will just fizzle out and forgotten about until the next one, last year it was rte, now this only much bigger, between over priced hospital, bike shed and indeed a security hut, what will next year bring??? God only knows!! What will come out of all this??? Nothing!!
@@Deadsmegma We wouldn't have the same fire power as the army. That said, there's less than 10k of them and less than 20k Gardai. They can't be everywhere at once lol
Great distraction this..although I welcome the scrutiny...but the civil service (permanent government ) answers to no one and has no legal obligation to the citizens
Absolutely the greatest question that anyone asked, a simple, straight-forward question, and yet!!!!, none of these ministers of state, representatives for us, Irish tax payers can give a simple answer to. WTF are they doing? Why are they still in power? , WHY are these muppet representing us?.
Who’s accountable for the children’s hospital because they should probably be in jail if they cant figure out this balls up imagine the incompetence with our tax payers money in that project
Nobody EVER held accountable, just spend the tax payers money however you choose and there will be no consequences. In what other profession would you get away with such gross incompetence?!?!
Doesn't the teaching "profession" in Ireland get paid regardless of incompetence? The "legal" profession also get away with similar incompetence, win or loose they get paid. Oh aye, traditionally aren't most TDs teachers or lawyers?
@@FunnyCardinal-po2wc True. But it is an Independent TD asking the questions, the more there are the more questions can be asked and brought to account. Thank you for your comment.👍.
Voting independents is not going to get this government out. Sure the majority of independents are former Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil tds and they usually support the government. The only way to get this government out is to support Sinn Féin, as they are the only party big enough to have any chance to form the next government.
@@paddyt4043 the WW11 orphan story was a way of discrediting the "Operation Shamrock ☘ 20,21,22,23,24 " narrative. The fools think everything is about money and power.

Look at them, it's a club that is paid for by the Taxpayer and they make up their own rules to suit their lifestyles. Just treading water until the state pension kicks in. Never thought about the COSTS.
Some chicken feed will be thrown around in the budget next week, and when the headless chickens try without success to pick it up, the story of Government and Civil Service incompetence will have moved on to, "nothing to see here."
@@annamariapurcell4454 yes, but it's a diamond encrusted gate and don't mention the most expensive building in the world, a children's hospital complete with outside polished marble surround water feature. A load more unnecessary vanity features on a kid's hospital which could've just been built on the outskirts of Dublin in one year with nature on it's doorstep to help kids recover. Instead they'll be put into the serpent's eye from the sky. No children in there yet though. They'll be adults by the time they get near finished and then will have to join the nightmare that's the other hospitals.
@@JonJon-en8szOMG, you guys are Clueless...he is part of the political establishment so he's no problem with fools, he gets votes from them. This is pure theatrics for silly people, he's just playing to the camera, so what? Nothing will change unless all these political Goons are removed.
😂😂😂 well well now that y’a mention, ye’swill have a further “40,000 alibabas” moving in next year and next next year etc, welcome to yer new downtown mogadishu life style Orish laddies and lassies 🎉 Just saying ….. 😎
McSharry has been decent for quite a while from what I can follow. He is a questioner and does not like BS. If FF put him in as leader instead of the slimebag Martin the country would be way better off. I'd probably still vote FF.
Marc McSharry. A sharp knife! Ray McSharry was his father I think. The best finance minister the country ever had by a mile. And he didn't even have a Leaving Cert: just an intelligent man of integrity.
...not to mention the New Children's Hospital - this is now an international embarrassment. I saw an article about it on RU-vid recently - the project is probably up there with the new Berlin Airport!
All these civil servants should be made pay 2000e each for this fiasco. Maybe if they had to pay up they would think twice about doing it again. But in Ireland the tax payer pays for everything, even bike sheds for the td's bikes!!!
Does ANY ONE of these people have the appropriate qualifications and relevant experience to be trusted to do their jobs ? That also goes for the ministers of state in their various positions in charge of departments.
Sure they all live in houses, so they know all about building. Fcuking amateurs being in charge is the problem. The OPW being a bloated, institutionalised waste of money is a secondary problem.
This is happening all over the country. Especially with Councils. This week a farmer in west Limerick is installing an underpass for his cattle. Road was closed at 9 am Monday morning. Council gave 5 days to have all works completed. Spoke with farmers neighbour today, and they expect to have the road reopened on Thursday evening all work completed. Congrats to all involved. Now recently the same Council put in underpasses on Limerick Greenway. A much smaller job took 6 weeks to complete . Also the same Council put an underpass on the N21 road at Barna, near Newcastle West, this work took 6 months to complete. Something seriously wrong here when the council gives a farmer 5 days to complete an underpass , then give carte blanche to contractors hired by them. Nobody knows the real cost of this work.Nor does any politician question it. Totally unacceptable.
Scratching my head 😮have seen the new bike lane through the city nearly 4 years still not finished but the children's hospital has to be investigated surly
O my goodness these guys seem to have no idea what’s going down with my money? Why don’t the guys who want these pay for it themselves, or ask the people who pay the tax do they want it. 😊
They seem to be quite happy to individualize matters if a taxpayer fails in their duty ...in fact I think I may have heard the phrase 'Name AND shame ' whoever thought of that ??
Now let's talk about how much its costing the tax payer for accommodation for all those illegal immigrants. Or let's not talk about that one shall we. God give me the strength 🙄🙏
You don’t want the answer to how much we spend on fakeugees accommodation. Mosney alone is costing 200 million, they are all working. Simon wants to charge them 15 euro a week. As you know, this is the price of own door accommodation , Wi-Fi, heating, food inclusive in Dublin. Michael D is in a 5 star hotel in New York. He said fakeugees, working or not, should NOT be charged any rent. Michael D has free own door accommodation in the Park, so I can see where he is coming from.
That cost is running into the billions. There's rumours of a recession hitting. It's on its way in Germany and France. So what happens if and when it happens here?
We don’t seem to be able to build anything on time for a reasonable price anymore. More worryingly I can’t see anything being suggested that will fix it.
A useless government backed by a completely incompetent civil service. €380k for a bike rack and we find out today that we spent €1.5m for a security cabin. I used to do shop fit outs and openings and we had to account for any additional euro spent and every single cost. These flutes havent got a clue where money is going. Joke of a country.
@captain007x The list is endless, I am certain we do not know the half of it. Another genius purchase was the giant printer which wouldn't fit in the government building and which eventually cost €1.8m for itself and associated construction works. Also worthy of mention is the €54m spent on useless voting machines which were eventually sold on for scrap for €70k.
The last time I saw this room it was for the RTÉ scandal and they got a lovely bonus in the end. If history is anything to go by there will probably be bikes sheds everywhere after this.
People need to be held accountable now instead of skirting around it.The hospital is another problem when the budget was 660m & now is costing 2.2billion
This country is hemorrhaging cash......spending way to much on way to little. A few people are getting very rich on the tax payers backs. You couldn't run a private business the way some people are running this country. Shocking. The things that matter don't get funding but things like bike sheds get 300k, disgraceful.
When the Children's hospital is finished over budget and God knows when , it will still have to be fitted out and and specialist Doctors and Nurces to work there, Don't be surprised if half the Hospital is left vacant because the HSE have not planned to have the staff to work there when they are cutting the ribbon...
You and your parties hire them but you never fire them, window dressing for the public, nothing more nothing less, disingenuous out right,keep the club intact
Ask them about the disgraceful lax of strategy re. the sale of the land around Castletown House in Celbridge. How on earth can a developer outbid the Government. Banana Republic Inc...
Absolutely nothing is a disciplinery process no mater who does what. These people are clueless, they are getting the highest pay but know nothing. When you think back over the years and some of the gross neglegence, i.e. The childrens hospital, The bike shed, The millennium clock, The printer that was to big to to get it into the dail, The equine arena that's to small to hold international horse shows in, The luis that also ran way over budget. If a company was run in the same way, it wouldn't last p...ing time.
