Irish and US officials are currently working out how best to mark the day, a spokesperson for the Taoiseach said. Martin previously stated that “the virus will dictate” whether a trip to Washington DC was possible. The chances of the trip happening had decreased after the White House confirmed that it has not been holding public events due to coronavirus concerns.
Delighted... good dent in his ego.
Not by choice the muppet..he was being told by his own people not to go..but someone with cop on(Biden),made his mind up for him!
Biden has shown the Irish vote is not insoortant any more th this Ireland is no longer relevant to the Democrats
No duty free for him 😂😂
Oops 🙊🙊🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh, dear he must be gutted. He may never get another chance.
Good and why should he
You can just picture him stomping round the house like a spoiled child
Right decision by Biden's team.
lol that went out the window as soon as he heard he would have to take the vaccine.
😂 😂 Shot down
So sad the only way they could get an answer was to ask his press secretary 🤦♂️ So much for 'loving ireland' Biden won't even return our phone calls.
*Taoiseach planned to go but wasn't invited.
Saved on the 2k fine , worked out well.
Good.
Delighted
Headline suggests he's still going to Georgetown/Washington DC, only not for St Patrick's day. Or that he's going for St Patrick's day, only somewhere else?
Micheal is an inspiration to us all, I hope people can learn from Micheal. We will go up in the polls now.
That's the end of that discussion, then. But remember he did say if he was invited he would go! Bualadh Bos Biden
What sinn feinn say blame biden
MichealMartinTD “amused” by the debate.... are you for fucking real... are you that detached from the hardship you are imposing on the people of Ireland.... I look forward to you getting slaughtered in the next general election, you won’t be so amused by that
Good. Going would only have allowed those who want 2 weeks in Shagaluf this summer to point to him and reckon if it’s good enough for MM to travel it’s good enough for them.
Good. Let's move on. The Taoiseach's office could commission a great video greeting / promotional snapshot of Ireland for the online meeting with President Biden. So much creative video talent available. creativeireland StPatricksDay 🇮🇪🇺🇸
Only because JoeBiden has said that he's not available because he's busy tring to sort the COVID19 pandemic and vaccinate his fellow Americans. Pity MichealMartinTD didnt put his felliw citizens fìrst !!
So no invite then,,,,
The best news in a while. Probably still claim travel expenses
Honest man. Michael Martin. Best ever politician.
Incoming FF/FG bots
No surprise. He hadn't been invited to visit anyway.
Any chance PhelanVicky could represent us given that she represents all that is great about our nation? I think the entire country would be given a huge boost by that.
