Ok gimme a sec. more than a hint of the flann o'brian letters fiascos about em

Sir, – Perhaps not many of your readers are great users of public transport. Let me therefore point out a rather disconcerting phenomenon now frequently observed on Dublin buses, namely the application of make-up (by ladies). We hear much of health and safety. Is there not a danger that an errant mascara wand could deliver a nasty poke in the eye were a bus to brake suddenly. Then there’s the question of propriety. What next? Nail clipping on the 15B? A little light depilation on the 46A. — Yours, etc,
FRANK BYRNE,

Sir, – I couldn’t agree more with Frank Byrne (Letters, April 1st) regarding women applying make-up on the bus. I had the misfortune recently to be seated beside a young lady who had the audacity to embellish her eyelashes with mascara while I was eating a box of chips and chicken nuggets. Mascara doesn’t go too well with salt and vinegar, or indeed sweet and sour sauce! There was a time when such behaviour wouldn’t have been tolerated. Yours, etc,
PAUL DELANEY,

Sir, – I strongly disagree with Frank Byrne’s views (Letters, April 1st) on the practice of women applying their makeup on public transport.
The application of makeup is an intimate and private moment for women in which they construct their daily mask. The public application of makeup is fascinating, and very modern. To watch a woman apply makeup is profoundly erotic (in the post-Freudian sense).
To suffer these small darts of Eros at a time of day when one is moving into the profoundly mundane space of most white collar work is a privilege. Yours, etc,
LEON SHARKEY,

The United Kingdom Independence Party has rejected as "nonsense" criticism of the party using an Irish actor in a poster about the impact of immigration on British jobs.

The poster was published last week as the party launched its campaign ahead of elections on 22 May.

It features a builder in hi-viz vest and a hard hat begging on the street next to the slogans "EU policy at work" and "British workers are hit hard by unlimited cheap labour".

But it has emerged the man featured on the poster is Irish actor Dave O'Rourke, prompting Conservative MP Bob Neill to criticise the party.

"British actors are hit hard by unlimited cheap luvvies".

a friend put this up on his FB of an independent Offaly candidate in the '11 election

i am currently reading a fb thread slagging this guy and his everythings that he happened across it is something

at least he put a tie on for his picture, sort of

i'd be the first one to decry shallow image-based politics but if you knew you was having a photo took that was gonna be turned into big posters that wd be asking people to vote for you who didn't know you then surely

if he spruced himself up a bit he could have a Paul Dano thing going on

reminds me more of Catherine Tate tbh

lolll

Linda Ervine's soft voice and gentle manner bely a formidable passion for the Irish language - and for why Northern Ireland's Protestant community should take it up.

"There is every reason why Protestants should be learning Irish," she said. "Ninety-five percent of our place names come from Gaelic… We are using words in our language every day that come from the Gaelic language. We are steeped in it."

compelling case
