All is not well these days in “Leo is a ledge” land. The woke messiah’s halo has well and truly lost its sparkle. The new emerging global independent media seem to have picked up on just how bad he is too, in terms of his disgusting, disgraceful treatment of the Irish people, his banal mediocrity and just his overall buffoonery, repugnance and incompetence. Everyone from Tucker Carlson to Steve Bannon to the Lotus Eaters, GB News and Sky News Australia, have all been alerted to his shenanigans and his mismanagement of the ever deepening crises on this island. Crises he of course helped create.
They are all unanimously aghast at his flagrant disregard for the Irish people and their opposition to the trajectory he has put this nation on. The much maligned hate speech bill and his bizarre decision to berate Irish men in the aftermath of crimes committed by non-Irish men, have brought the eyes of the world upon him and made him a figure of ridicule on the global stage. The Irish media, all the while do their best ‘three wise monkeys’ impression and remain steadfastly blind, deaf and dumb to any misgivings.
The emperor needs a trip to Louis Copeland, because everyone is beginning to see for themselves that he hasn’t a stitch. This is a man with no popular mandate remember. A man who only became Taoiseach due to Enda Kenny stepping down and edging out Simon Coveney in the race for party leadership and only retaining his Dáil seat on the fifth count at the last election. A man who has remarkably dominated Irish politics for close to a decade, despite never winning a popular vote, thanks largely to his own personal public relations team, RTÉ, who have never to my memory, remotely criticised him on anything. And there’s so much, boys and girls, so so much. This graduate of the World Economic Forum’s Young Global Leaders program managed to slip under the radar unfortunately. His rise to prominence came before the advent of social media and before the alternative media had become the force it now is.
His placement in a Questions & Answers audience, where he seemed to be planted to question (ironically) the then health minister, Micheál Martin regarding the dubious practices of the pharmaceutical industry. It was a carbon copy of what the Irish propaganda machine recently tried with Labour Party member, Linda O’Sullivan - who deserves a special mention due to the similarities - after the recent referendum trouncing. Handpicked audience members seem to be the order of the day. A little test perhaps, before moving on up the chain to bigger things. It seems to be a rite of passage, a box to tick along the way in their internship. Quite possibly a practice run at political discourse in the public arena with the eyes of the nation upon them, to see do they cut the mustard.
