Pet Rabbit flip flops on hooking up with Bertie

[madisona]

Did anybody see Pat Rabbitte on TV3s political show on Sunday. He was asked whether Labour would go into government with FF. He gave some meaningless answer so Ursula Hannigan asked him the question again and again and he gave increasingly opaque and irrelevant answers. She then asked him several times whether he would remain leader of the Labour party if it went into coalation with FF. Again he dodged the question. It reminded me of the Jeremy Paxman interview with Michael Howard where he refused to answer a question 28 times. was kinda sorry when she eventually said "ok we'll leave it there" seems like the Mullingar accord is being ditched.

Is seems the Labour party have insisted that poor Pat has to live in the real world for a while...

I thought she let him away with it too easily, although time was against her.

She should've done a George Hook "I'm a patient woman Deputy Rabbitt, but I've asked the question now 3 times...."
