  1. One of those times where you safely guess how it sounds without needing the volume turned up.

    Sad thing is these types genuinely think is funny. We all the know the type: grown men who’s intellect and humour never evolved since they hit 13 years old.

  2. Should he not have some security with him? Certainly around the city centre?
    Didn’t he have some young one throw a drink over him last year?

  3. Scumbags. Leave the man alone when he’s going for a jog ffs. Whatever your feeling are about the guy or his parties policies, hurling abuse at him on the street from a car is not the brave and hilarious feat you think. They’re so unaware of themselves it’s not even funny.

    I remember when Bertie could safely go and have a pint in peace in Fagans in Drumcondra no matter what shenanigans he’d gotten up to that day.

  4. I had this same argument with my brother when the woman threw the coffee on him. He said fair play and fuck him. My point was simple, you don’t have to respect the man, but respect the position. He was duly elected and he is the Tánaiste of this country wether you like it or not and there has to be a minimum amount of respect because of that.

    Also the man is a person, leave the man in peace.

  5. Maybe they frequent here because it’s exactly the kind of stuff that gets said about him every hour of every day on this sub, these mouth-breathers just happened across him in person.

  6. He walks on the street all the time, I’m sure he is used to the abuse but please don’t. He is just a person with a job, you can disagree with his politics or his job performance but abusing anyone on the street is fucked up.

  7. Would I do this personally no ….. Do I feel bad for him in the slightest? Not one bit.

    He’s a public figure who has over seen the public being screwed at every turn while pocketing big money for himself. Not to mention the criminal investigation on him at the moment.

    Maybe if more people hurled abuse at the man while he was out he might start to act in the public interest more often.

    Everyone here who is defending him needs to get a grip, his legacy in generation rent for the lucky ones and homelessness for the rest. Fuck Leo

  8. I don’t like Leo v much but I like that in Ireland our (former) Taoiseach/Táiniste can go out for a jog and not worry or attend the gym (I’ve bumped into him a few times in TCD gym) without security. Arseholes like this threaten that ability and it’d be a shame for us to lose our “local” feeling because of it

  9. I always wonder how politicians can screw over the country that elected them but id say a lot of their interactions with the public in dublin is with clowns like this.. probably makes it all a lot easier

  10. from the title i thought it was going to be someone giving dogs abuse to him. such melodrama in this thread

    he called him a prick and laughed, given the impact he has had on the nation i would say a great many people have far worse to say to him.

  11. Leo has cheated an entire generation out of home ownership and has sold off any profitable public businesses and resources to international entities all while giving himself multiple pay rises each year. But don’t mind that because “welfare cheats cheat us all!”

  12. The wanker is the one who recorded saying it. I’m not a fan of Leo but this is just childish men thinking they big men calling people names. They need to grow up.

  13. I know the types; tradies who think their brand of humour is hilarious and if you don’t you’re just a bit thick. Fucking cunts.
