Caption competition

Deirdre de Burca, Dublin MEP and Ireland South European Candidate Dan Boyle posed for a pre-Heineken Cup photograph, and to be honest, I don’t really know what to say. So, I will leave it to you

And as the Greens are likely to support the whole blasphemy laws being proposed, try not to make the Baby Jebus cry with your captions.

    Jeasus Deirdre, between us and Fianna Fail we have made a balls of the country.

    @Dan Boyle

    OK let us get this clarified, maybe a statement from Eamon Ryan is in order here. Will the greens support a defamation bill which includes a blasphemous libel ammendment?

    Personally, a referrendum ammending article 40.6.1.1 of the constitution, removing the crap about blasphemy is more in order.
  • After a hard day campaigning and - amongst other things - encouraging the people of South County Dublin to plant more in their gardens and open spaces, I was glad to see that so many people have been using their creative talents in writing captions.

    To help keep the creativity flowing, I am offering a prize of fifty Euro - €50 - for the funniest caption on the photograph on the Limerick Blogger site, or on the other Rugby photos on my Flikr - http://www.flickr.com/photos/32648543@N07/

    To keep a level playing field (pun intended), the caption must be of no more than 10 words, it should be creative and funny. All entries on the Limerick Blogger site by 1600 hrs on Thursday 7th May will be eligible. I'll be the one-person judge in this competition but can promise that all entries, whether from Munster or Leinster will be considered equally. Good Luck. Deirdre

    Please note, that if you are going to post a caption, include your email address in the e-mail field so that you can be contacted should you win.
  • Dan Boyle
    Actually no. This has been suggested as an amendment for committee stage. it has been voted on by anyone in The Green Party. If the amendment is mad it will have to come back and be voted on, but there are questions as to whether that will happen.

    Men's rugby bowing to women's rugby...finally!

    Deirdre: What Gaelic teams are these?
    Dan: Who cares, They said they'd give me chips and a burger
  • You shouldn't be assuming things. This is what I said in the Seanad ( yes I did do some work as well) on Blasphemous Libel when I was taking the order of business yesterday.

    Senator Dan Boyle: Senators Norris and Bacik spoke about the proposal to include a crime of blasphemous libel in new legislation. My understanding is that this was considered as an inclusion from a Cabinet decision in 2005. I am also informed, being a member of the Oireachtas Joint Committee on the Constitution, that the issue was examined recently. It was proposed to leave the reference to blasphemy in the Constitution but to suggest that it is impossible to legislate for it.
    Senator David Norris: Good.
    Senator Dan Boyle: I hope that recommendation by the committee will be considered when the legislation comes to both Houses.

    That is all well and good dan, but your boys in the Dail will vote in favour of this neanderthal legislation, and there is no point in denying it.

    Who is keeping a check on Fianna Fail, their junior coalition parthers, the Greens? or is it Opus Dei
  • Deburca and Boyle get used to the party colours for when the Greens dissolve after everyone steals their policies and screws them over.
  • Pat
    And these idiots run the country
  • They are both tyring to work out if the ball is pumped or stuffed
  • CD
    Good God (happy, Jebus?!). There is something seriously wrong with the world if they think this will get them into the papers. I do often get a sense of "not waving, but drowning" from political photo calls.
  • jack
    "If that Leinster mob win there really must be no god"
  • "The IRFU's plan to transport Saturday's match ball from Thomond Park to Croke Park by glueing it to the hands of two Green Party members backfires as Dan Boyle falls asleep before they even make it to Colbert Station"
  • law abider
    It was my idea to hide the smack in the rugby ball to get it out of the flats. Now give it back and go queue up for methadone on Pearse Street.

    (I love a chance to remind Dubs they live in the real shit hole in this country)
