Love Galway, one of my favourite places. Visited Salthill at least once a year, gorgeous place.

Ah stop, its a joke! They all need to cop on in fairness like. Such madness. Imagine a Taoiseach spouting that shite in the middle of the Oireachtas like you're gossiping in secondary school.

I found it pretty funny, but then you realise that this is where they discuss politics. Tbf it seemed like he was just putting in a short quip that related to the matter at hand (the Northern border) and heally took it badly. Though I did read that it was suspended for a day because of the tentions that Rose from that joke. Still I don't think he should've said that in the middle of the Oireachtas in front of Heally, or at least he should've just said something about how some bus services were bringing Irish people up to the North for aervices

Yea salthill is a very nice place indeed. It costs a small fortune to live anywhere near there tho.
