People Who Died (13 Viewers)


What's the consensus on Bruton? I suppose I was young when he was in power so never developed really strong opinions on him, much like Reynolds who'd have been a contemporary. Just some guy who was Taoiseach in my lifetime and then "did well" in Europe. I'm sure he was probably a wanker but he doesn't seem important enough in the long run.

Was there for the bulk of the peace process, that's a thing. Divorce came in under him too, probably more a condition of getting Labour and DL into government with him.

Haughey I knew was a prick and I'd opinions on him because he was such a crook, Bertie I think I'll always despise.
 
I think he was in the fine gael tradition of landing in to half cobble together an economy post some fianna fail binge, only for fianna fail to wake up hungover and start hazing the country into thinking bertie was a good idea.

Stomach cancer at 62 eh.

'Merica.


Very hypocritical of me to say that, but I ain't no helicopter flying music star.
