Ferocious Rows on Gay Byrne's Late Late Show

The legend that is Gay Byrne. No one like him, no one can come close to him today he truly was a gifted interviewer and host. He was a national treasure.

[@dhalsim-1]

Speak for yourself

[@TheAvarusAnimus]

I found him to be egotistical. He talked down to people unless they were of the same socio-economic background. Just look at the reels. That doesn't mean I didn't enjoy many of his interviews but he spoke to certain people in very different and patronising ways. Women, men and people he saw as lesser or a threat to the status quo.

[@davidryan7613]

He was an arrogant West Brit who looked down on poorer and less privileged people than himself. His open disgust for those suffering under the apartheid regime in Northern Ireland and his use of his platform to brand it's leaders as terrorists coupled with his vocal pride in his father's participation in the British Army tells us all we need to know about him, a wannabe member of the Protestant Ascendancy and an embarrassment to modern Ireland.

[@coolmacatrain9434]

He was awful! Always condescending, invariably ill-informed, patronising, smug et al But compared to what came after (Pat Kenny & Ryan Tubridy) he wasn't that bad really ha ha! I don't like kielty's bending the knee to all the woke b*llshit, either.

[@maureengoller3213]

I agree absolutely Kevin ! My two daughters here in Germany, started school with 6,5 years, which is normal outside of the British Isles(I use this term geographically). They were at exactly the same level as their Irish cousins at 9 yrs. old. Great income-based childcare over here, which is sadly lacking in Ireland.

[@garyodriscoll7988]

being of the premise that no questions is a stupid one, does large German cities have a migrant crisis? i.e. has rape and crime sky rocketed?

[@maureengoller3213]

Gary O'Driscoll , no, absolutely not ! The wast majority of crime is still committed by German citizens. I have been living in Germany for 27 years and I know this country well. I also have met and gotten to know lots of Syrian refugees and am struck by how quickly they learn the language here, a thing which took longer in my case. They just want to get on with their schooling, uni education, jobs, daily lives, as they were before the war there. This is no migrant crisis, either from economic migrants like myself or any other type. The gutter press tabloid media and the far right would have you believe otherwise, but most people can think and see for themselves here, thank God.

[@maureengoller3213]

Cathal Ó Braonáin , I could of course, but it’s just a traditional thing to use the former, as the British did control all the islands for a very long time, unfortunately. Anyone with any intelligence and an ounce of education, knows that Ireland is not British.

[@user-yp3oj5se1i]

@@maureengoller3213 The roman religious cult/holy roman empire paid off upper class to allow them into society. They did this slowly over time with no combat, no invasions of roman armies. They didn't know that one day DNA would be discovered and we find only 2% or less of this old roman dna in 'britain'. Being factually correct Britain isn't even British. The anglo invasion story is also made up. The church replaced upper and middle class over time and renamed/changed Irish places/names wtf is that? "but it’s just a traditional thing to use the former, as the British did control all the islands for a very long time"? 67,000 britzi troops were used to remove the food at gunpoint in the mid 1800's.
