Well, It IS Ireland, maybe they dom't bother over there if the cause of death is so blindingly obvious...
A seven-year-old boy is among four seriously injured people in hospital after a crash in County Kildare in which five teenagers were killed while driving the wrong way down a motorway. Two women are in a critical condition, while another woman and the boy are in a serious condition after the head-on crash. It's believed the injured family - two women aged in their 30s and one in her 20s, and the young boy - were travelling to the airport to go on holiday.
And this wasn't a case of teenagers driving like that because they got confused as some elderly drivers do, or were being cgased by police - it was deliberate.
The five teenagers have been named locally as Joe Carthy from Athy, County Kildare, Alex McCarthy from Carlow, Kamil Pustkowski from Limerick, Jeremy O'Brien and Jack Kennedy, according to Irish broadcaster RTÉ News.
Taoiseach (Irish Prime Minister) Micheál Martin said his thoughts and prayers were with the injured and the death of the five teenage boys brought untold grief.
Social media immediatly gave the lie to that, wirh many people quite happy that these hooligans had deleted themselves from the world, being notorious as thorough nuisances in their town, and the sympathy went to the innocent victims who were just trying to get away on holiday.
Garda Commissioner Justin Kelly described it as a "horrific incident" and "irresponsible and dangerous driving". "What makes this reckless behaviour even more appalling is that in some cases it is being done for social media likes regardless of the potentially devastating impact it might have on innocent people and themselves."
Ireland's Minister for Justice Jim O'Callaghan said on Monday that he condemned "in the strongest possible terms" the "reckless criminal behaviour". "I also want to emphasise that anyone who makes the decision to drive a vehicle deliberately the wrong way down a motorway is engaged in lethally dangerous behaviour and it must stop," O'Callaghan said.
But why would they stop, whrn the police are powerless - or unwilling - to stop them, and they lack the brainpower to realise the consequences of a crash ayyspeed?
I assumed the PMs were to confirm if it was booze, drugs or both.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading of their background, I don't suppose the parents of the five toerags can be prosecuted for failing to drown their offspring at birth?

Twitter is going berserk over these scumbags. There's obviously a lot of hatred for pikeys over there and no wonder the Irish celebrate when they land on our shores to do their thieving.

The reason for the post mortems is to establish the existence of even a single cell of brain-matter. A futile quest, as any of that will have been evolved out by centuries of in-breeding.
ReplyDeleteTalking about Pikeys. It seems that London's Mayor wants to impose more Pikeys on outer London boroughs. Muncii92 over at the Harry's Place blog said: "our esteemed London Mayor continues to destroy the once great city : he has proudly announced plans to set up hundreds more 'traveller sites' across the city, which, according to a proposed map, seem to show he intends to site them in the outer London Boroughs. Which don't tend to vote Labour.
ReplyDeleteI suppose, apropos the Prime Minister, the leafy suburbs and their wrong thinking voters must take their fair share of the 'disadvantaged'.
But what about the homeless veterans , Sadiq?"
I would suggest that Khan hates this country though, like a good muslim, is happy to take advantage of it, so improving the lives of those who served and fought for this country is way down his list. The installation of more travellers in non Muslim areas is just another of his plans to turn this country into an unrecogniseable wasteland. Big Boats Burnham, of course, won't do anything to stop it.
