Mary Hanafin defends giving away €750m to bondholders

[optionsupdate]

i would guess the bond holders have bribed these people to hand over the irish money to them

[martinbyrne68]

Career politicans are born liars, theres burton agreeing with vincent about not paying the unsecured bond holfers, now she's on the side of hanifan, and wants to pay the bondholders. Its our own fault for allowing these 2nd rate people to run our country.

[Burncourtable]

Go away and fuck off with yourself you ol bitch

[SeanOBriain]

Fine Gael are about to hand out more money... The joke never stops.

[wikidburke]

@SeanOBriain and do you know what the worst thing is buddy ? we have to pay for all this

[Leinster4life13]

what happened in anglo is none of her business,its called private enterprise,the government should keep their nose and taxpayers money out of private enterprise.Typical idiotic career politician from a "political dynasty".

[krugerfuchs]

mary hanifan supported and covered up child abuse in the cottage home dun laoghaire and sion hill blackrock

[pinkyb81]

My god this woman is such a waffling gombeen..couldnt give a straight answer!

[limerick22]

Mary must of watched this herself (see 1 dislike above lol)

[1stCondi]

Vincent Browne is an absolute legend!

[kcirish]

The really awful thing is, she and most of her party might be out of government now but they good a great golden handshake goodbye, paid for once again by us, the taxpayer. Its sad to see that her kind can wreck Ireland and still be paid millions

[hiline2009]

don`t look at how awful hanafin is---look at how brilliant browne is

[monoke25]

Scum

[LarryFogarty]

good riddance to the budgie hanafin

[simon44]

I think i've finally hit my breaking point. I'm actually teary eyed watching this. If I was in government I would never have allowed this. I am sick looking at this. How can people be such idiots?

[oldirtymick]

I hope her and her family die a horrible death, yeah i said it.

[SINKNINE]

RETIREMENT FOR THE CLUELESS HANAFIN.LOL LOL.

[40ny]

Hasta la vista, Baby.

[LeighLeighAdelaide]

@40ny haha Fact!!!!

[mcgarrya1]

unbelieveable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The markets couldnt give a crap...........they must be laughing at the stupid irish from london to brussels to New york

[Bluebuthappy182]

A few nights ago I saw a small clip on TV about the elections and an independent who was going for election was speaking to a small gathering of people and he said something that I thought rang quite true. "Success in Ireland means getting to a point where the law doesn't apply to you." Sadly i think that is very true

[dunnefan]

Bye bye Mary you bitch

[jamesnewaccount]

brought up in england to irish parents and lived here in ireland the past few years. a country that thinks its a big laugh to have a leader who gets pissed out of his face and then gets shocked when the country falls apart. If this B.S. was allowed to happen in any other country the streets would be on fire. What ever happened to the famous Irish fighting sprit as Ive seen no signs of it here. Did all the good irish emmigrate years ago? Every day it gets to be a bigger joke, that isnt funny.

[LeighLeighAdelaide]

@jamesnewaccount You're so right! I will never understand why people won't get together in numbers and protest. The government is making an absolute circus of Ireland and everyone accepts it...

[ph1lp0tt0]

Vincent Browne is a legend. Love the way he gives those knobs a hard time because they deserve it :D

[111squire]

Hoora The Bitch Is Gone, At Last The Irish have Woken Up.

[IanMacEoin]

If she gets back in the fuck you dun laoghaire!

[irishforfecksake]

She looks set to lose her seat ,,,,,,, I wonder why yeeeehaaaa goodbye to you why did your mother get a sneaky settlement for slipping in the Dail , two faced fianna fail sent to the dustbin of Irish history we rioted in the ballot box suck on that you rats

[jewel31781]

the truth is government working for the bondholder cause they have commitment with them even government members are elected by the ordinary citizen....my question is where is the fucking democracy ..........democracy means gay rights, lesbian rights, legalisation of drugs and voting rights?????????????

[LeighLeighAdelaide]

@jewel31781 The whole political system needs to change! There is no real democracy, what say do we really have?!

[jewel31781]

@LeighLeighAdelaide u can change entire political system from democracy to socialism to monarchy......will not be effective until u change ur financial system from interest based banking...and there will be war one after another.........

[hargohargo2]

anyone who thinks ireland is an equally democratic country i ask you this. why has the solicoter michael lynn who ripped off his clients to the tune of millions not in jail awaiting trial? so far the dpp has refused to serve an extradition warrent on this man and bring him back to ireland like they done with john gilligan, the dpp has refused to comment on this case, the reason he is not brought back is because he would start to talk and lots of fianna fail people would be implicated.

[ScottM83]

@hargohargo2 Ireland's justice system is prehistoric seems like it was set up help the white collar. the bad guy in Irish law still looks something to the tune of the hamburglar.

[longgoodbyeIreland]

useless Cunt should be strung up with the rest of them .

ALL HEIL ENDA

[voicemad]

@longgoodbyeIreland I agree but, the rest of them haven't been strung up

[engineer90210]

This is sickening, but I am glad Vincent brought this to my attention, but why don't we have more journalists out there willing to whistle blow on the politicians in Ireland?

[CautiousDiffusion]

The 1 dislike is either a bondholder or Mary Hanafin.

[40ny]

For once, even Joan Burton was struck dumb! But Trevor Sargeant is wrong to dismiss this as just 'rabbit in the headlights' syndrome. This Government took 750 million of our money - i.e. 170 euro from every person in the country - and gave it to people who, it appears, were not legally entitled to it. If I take 170 euro from one person I get a criminal record and may go to jail, so this should be looked at on legal grounds and if what these people did was illegal they too should go to jail.

[hargohargo2]

@40ny jail time are you mad? this is ireland and the prisons in this country are only there to lock up the working class people, 3 years into the banking investigation and not 1 banker has seen the inside of a courtroom, they need to start arresting politicians and bankers and when faced with serious jail time then they would start to rat on each other and only then will we find out the truth of what went on, finna fail ministers took millions in backhanders since 1997 litteraly millions.

[rakenrolstar1]

so sad...I feel sorry for the Irish.

[Yupitsbrandon00]

DIRTY WHORE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HERSELF FUCKING HOLE LICKER FUCKING PEICE OF SHIT AND BRIAN COWEN THE BIG WHORE OF A THING.

VINNY IS NO.1

[coadyd]

cunt

[micksul67]

Good man Vincent. She should be shot with a shovel that wan.

[joeoblogs]

How in the name of God can an ex-school teacher be able to handle the complexities of the financial system. No wonder this country is fcuked

[VEVOphile]

Glasses, she-mullet-like haircut, dodging questions without a hint of suaveness, generic successful woman clothes, aspirations for power beyond her capability, probable menstrual problems as a young adult. What a vile woman. Safe home all

-VEVOphile.

[noele10]

vincent browne is a politicians nightmare this fuckin hanafin cant tell the truth

[beggo321]

You can say what you want about Vincent Browne but he sure can keep a politican on his/her feet.

[seangibbs6]

Jesus mary!

[TheTentClub]

She's bound to get in. She is in essence a true FF candidate. People will vote for her because she's helps out her locality/constituency A LOT.

[TheSpinner111]

@TheTentClub

I sent her two e-mails and rang her twice regarding an inquiry I had over a matter in education....no reply.

I also went to two of her regular sittings....and she didn't show up......

[noele10]

shes a fuckin no good for nothing useles bitch and fuckin liar

[EKEN27]

Dirty rotten bitch , and the same goes for the rest of ye FF cunts . This country is fucked for the next 20 years because of the whole lot of ye , this country is heading for morgage melt down I know loads of people that have lost their jobs that depend on welfare to pay the morgage keep cutting ye fucks and c where it's gets the banks , everybody should fuck the keys back at them what are they goin to do about it!! Fuck all

[tkshots]

[mickstakes]

I smell major corruption !

[Binjuice]

Mary Hanafin dislikes this.

[TheEuropeanAgenda]

By the way; if you want to piss them off vote Sinn Féin!!!

[TheEuropeanAgenda]

Vincent Browne has to be the best Irish interviewer. He makes the slippery politicians answer the question he asked and not let them use the typical snake oil salesman politician trick of changing the topic and answering a different question.

[Kerryman81]

This clown Hannafin hopefully wont see the inside of the dail for a long long time,obligation to the bondholders my hole,what about to the obligation to irish people?? 

[Murphyismydog]

Fucking cunts. You steal from the poor, the old and the disabled. I hope there's a hell that all you FF cunts cant spend eternity roaring in!

[Murphyismydog]

Hanafin was a cunt... Because the agreement that was reached.... Fuck you. I hope you die roaring you thief!

[SH3RIFF187]

Bitch

[UTubeGameTrailers]

suck my cock .... mary u ugly waste of space :)

[mrjohnmccarthy]

Depressing

Listening to FF

[keithf7975]

Everyone in her and Andrews const shud be made watch this b4 voting. Fucking arseholes. All fianna Fail. She shud just say we bailed out our buddies. At least she wud b honest.

[atoast2toastdotcom]

thanks for uploading

[ambaiste]

Cunts. Should be taken out on the streets and shot.

[Ecobawn]

They have me cursing the lot of them, should be a referendum on the bank bailouts.

Its just sick that we the people never got the opportunity to accept or reject bailing them out

[TheAna6871]

unreal....i wonder who the bondholders are who got the money robbed from the ordinary irish people who are actually suffering due to those f.. politicians...oh jaysus...makes me mad angry!

[liver9100]

anglo bondholders one of them are the Rothschild family the richest family in the world have over 70 percent of the worlds money and they FF give 750million euro they should be hung

[Ecobawn]

Fair play to Vincent the only man to ask the hard questions and show this lot what a bunch of wasters they are. Makes my blood boil

who are the bondholders????

Make u wonder

[kevbun]

@Ecobawn search for "order-order anglo bondholders"

[shanek25]

Spoofer. The whole goddamn Dail is full of them.

[PGTipps100]

What an idiot. She clearly hadn't a clue what she was talking about. She's a bluffer - even tried to deflect to talking about social welfare cuts so she wouldn't have to respond to the question. A lot of other interviewers would have let it go but fair play to Vincent, he didn't. 3.14-3.18 is priceless! She just wouldn't admit she didn't know. When you are in a hole Mary....

[Dualtha]

Traitors the bloody lot of them. Lying cow

[RadioOgnir]

Her lips were moving, enuf said

[shoutinbob]

sad thing is there is a real possibility this woman will get reelected!!

[steofairc]

Typical FF muppet not living in reality

[karlh2001]

They really don't care once they get paid and have a sniff of a job in Europe. FF became completely drunk with power and see the people as nothing more than an inconvenience. If you vote FF this Friday you don't like your country.

[coolhandfinn]

Mary you gobshite you have an obligation to the people of ireland you fucking traitor

[ourdaywillcome85]

Fucking liar and traitor.

[jonnyfingers]

Make no mistake. Fianna Gael and Labour will pay these same bondholders. Irish politics is broken. Only Sinn Féin will pay no more money to these bondholders but unfortunately I don't think they'll get enough votes to to so.

[thebard20]

'Absolutely disgraceful' but not disgraceful enough for them to try and put anyone in jail for it. FF are in this to give everything they possibly can to the banks.

[brennan1979]

Oh dear. Required viewing for anyone who wants to know why this country is in the state it's in.

[TheRapidoEduardo]

This should be required viewing for every voter in the country

[darcor56]

@TheRapidoEduardo this video should be played before every general election for the next 100 yrs least people forget and vote these crooks back in!
