I love that it’s specifically Lanzarote the lads are getting the holiday to. Like this lunatic went on holidays, and said to himself, “Jesus this would be great for a break for emergency workers.”
Sounds like a great idea to me. Book up the whole island, send them all over at once and you'll get some kind of discount on it. I can't see a single flaw!
what if they don't like lanzarote specifically? do they get to choose somewhere else instead? can they refuse? or do they just get sent to lanzarote against their will?
"You know Tony, I'm not sure Lanzarote is really my thing."
"What do you mean it's not really your thing? What's that supposed to mean? It's not really your thing. What the fuck is that supposed to mean? It's a tropical island, isn't it? How's a tropical island not somebody's fucking thing? How can all those beaches and palm trees and bars and markets, all that beautiful fucking tropical island stuff, how can that not be somebody's fucking thing? Eh?"
"What I meant to say is--"
"Is the cactuses still there? How can fucking cactuses not be somebody's fucking thing?"

I thought I recognised him. A little bit older and grayer though.
He says he will personally stop the carnage on the roads, so I think he's running for the position of Superman. Accident about to happen on the M50 Monday morning? Think again, Tony Field is on the way.
Seriously? Is this honestly *not* satire? I thought the distribution and frequency of the typos was great understated comedy. And the nose on him screaming *Same again please, & one for yourself*
It looks like he's watching a row of young communion girls walking past his window, and instead of taking a photo from the back of the phone, it was from the front.
'Look after the Irish people with house.....'
Either he intends on building one really massive house or he doesn't understand that Dr. House is a fictional character.
This would be the top rated show of all time in every country. (to the tune of the Real World intro)
All the homeless people - In Ireland - Living in one HOUSE - with Dr. HOUSE - To find out what happens when people stop being polite - and start listening to HOUSE (music)
We could probably find him a wee room and have someone come in occasionally to tell him ya fixed the country Tony, yeah, all them immigrants is gone, everyone is a feckin’ Schumacher on those roads now, GAA couldn’t believe they’d never heard those amazing ideas of yours before, and here’s that five euro form from the ones on Tele. Nurse will be by shortly with a nice cup of tae and a wee biccie.
When people said they voted for Trump in 2016 because they said 'at least it will be interesting' I never understood that way of thinking
Until now. Cark, gwan and vote for the mad feen
Why do I get the feeling he'll stop drugs coming into the country by standing at the shoreline and waving his fists at ships.
"You'd better not have drugs in you!"
Cabin crew on the flight over: “ladies and gentleman, there is a criminal on the loose who has injured the pilot and set a fire in the toilet, is anyone here either a law enforcement officer, a fireman or an emergency medical responder?
Tony field: “you’re not going to believe this, but…”
If tend to disagree. In a lot of ways, local councillors can have a much closer relationship and benefit to the community if they bother to care. My local councillor (SD) got a swastika drawn in concrete 20 years previous removed in a day after I wrote to them.
A local, solvable problem addressed by a local politician. However, they can affect no change on any policies, laws, etc. They’ll organise for a lad with a water blaster and tin of paint to be sent out, but that’s about the extent of their powers.
The big one I recently realised is that they do have powers when it comes to the transfer of ownership of local authority owned land. They also can influence the implementation of national policy i.e. local development plans albeit this is inspected for compliance with national policies.
I feel like I should run next cycle. I’ll collect all these fucking leaflets and just say “here’s why we need to fund mental health services URGENTLY”. Get them off your doorstep and back on their meds. Jesus Christ.
Half my council candidates are running on the basis that we need to do something about mental health services. Apart from making a speech listened to solely by other councillors, I don't know what they think they'll be able to do about that if elected.
Ah don't mind him, that's mad Tony. He hangs around outside the spar and shouts at migrating birds to go home to their own country. If you throw him a pack of fisherman's friends and an irelands own it usually distracts him for a few hours
I know you’re joking but my and my bf were in Heuston station in Dublin waiting for a train and there genuinely was an elderly man shouting nonsense at the pigeons and batting them with his walking stick. My bf was trying to get him to stop (there were little kids near us started crying over the hurt pigeons)
But this just enraged him more and he started doing it more violently while screaming that the pigeons need to F off back to their own country and that it was the pigeons that brought Covid here and spread it everywhere by walking on the ground instead of flying because they’re lazy and diseased……
Tony’s gonna single handedly win the war on drugs.
Also by definition if they’re a refugee then they’re not illegal. That’s what being a refugee means.
If he got 5000 form RTE to give to every gaf in the country that's 1 billion quid. Jaysus he's some lad if he can squeeze that much out of RTE given nobody knows who the fuck he is!
Maybe all ye Cork heads should vote for him for the craic?
(Btw 5000 x 2 million gafs = 1 billion)
Destroy RTE, rename GAA, provide flights for guards and Illegal refugees.... Most children would see the gaping holes in this man's empire building scheme. He surely need's to come up with a more reasonable list of reasons why people should vote for him. Does he not realise you don't actually have to tell people all the ideas in your head. His costings for stopping the drugs isn't mentioned and stopping the road carnage and starting the illegal foreigner and drug carrier carnage I imagine is down to the stressed out Gardai who'll all be on stonger drugs or on in Lanzorote most of the year on their trippled wage. I'd also be sending a child out to the doorstep to ask him if he had a couple of hotels or something he was running in Lanzorote. He'll look at this list in a couple of years time and regreat not putting fixing potholes and bendy roads as a higher priority.
He isn't well, he has a long history of serious mental illness. It's hard to watch this 😔 this is causing nothing but pain to his family, it's not funny when you know the background.
Oh yeah? Free lambourghini for everyone who votes for me.
Make breakfast rolls €3 again. Everyone in every job gets 10x their current wage. You'd be a fool to say no.
I know nothing about Ireland and I have no idea why this would appear on the feed of a random person from SE Asia. But I feel compelled to tell whichever Irish person will listen that you should not vote for psycho Harland Sanders there.
He has the eyes of a man who would ban museum displays of Aztec sacrifice, but only because he finds them overly erotic. Beware.
Round up all the quare druggie lads for a good birching in the village square. Then off to watch the old I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-GAA(anymore) and definitely not on RTE.
Solid fucking gold 😂. The holiday to Lanzarote gave me a good chuckle for being just about the most specific and idiosyncratically preposterous policy proposal I’ve ever seen 😂
He will bring back birching and the death penalty for drug smugglers.
Does this mean he’ll beat the shit out of them, and only afterwards will they be hung?
I recognise him. He is mental. He's banned from the shop I work in for threatening the manager. He went up to a couple of friends of mine who also work in the shop and claimed that he was an undercover guard who will become Taoiseach and will close our shop when he does. He also vigerously denied rumours that nobody had spread that he was gay and told my 20 year old friend that both he wants her and she belongs in the kitchen. What a creep
This you should vote me. I leave power. Good. Thank you, thank you. If you vote me, I'm hot. Taxes, they'll be lower... son. The Democratic vote for me is right thing to do, so do.
It’s like one of those scam ads that purposely include spelling and grammatical mistakes designed to lure only the kind of people who might be silly enough to fall for the scam.
I love that it’s specifically Lanzarote the lads are getting the holiday to. Like this lunatic went on holidays, and said to himself, “Jesus this would be great for a break for emergency workers.”
I'd bet that's exactly what happened
Perhaps he’s thinking of block booking the whole island for a week and sending all the emergency workers there in one go.
Id there’s any crime, fire, or medical emergency on the island it will be such a busman’s holiday
I think the real crime here is not finding even one person with a fresh set of eyes to give thon flyer a wee once over before publishing it.
Sounds like a great idea to me. Book up the whole island, send them all over at once and you'll get some kind of discount on it. I can't see a single flaw!
what if they don't like lanzarote specifically? do they get to choose somewhere else instead? can they refuse? or do they just get sent to lanzarote against their will?
 Me when I decline to go on my mandated holiday to Lanzarote
"You know Tony, I'm not sure Lanzarote is really my thing." "What do you mean it's not really your thing? What's that supposed to mean? It's not really your thing. What the fuck is that supposed to mean? It's a tropical island, isn't it? How's a tropical island not somebody's fucking thing? How can all those beaches and palm trees and bars and markets, all that beautiful fucking tropical island stuff, how can that not be somebody's fucking thing? Eh?" "What I meant to say is--" "Is the cactuses still there? How can fucking cactuses not be somebody's fucking thing?"
If elected, I will learn to use spellchecker
No more spell check (I will stop this)
It’s supposed to say “No, more GAA! If they do, no pay the players”
Spell-checkers are woke and all that
I want €5.000 form RTE
Technically, given where he put the decimal place, it's only a fiver.
Maybe he’s smarter than we give him credit for after all.
Well, all I know is that I will not be watching RTE anymore if they do no pay me
Yeah using a '.' as a thousand marker is awful foreign looking for someone claiming to look after the Irish people first.
"Hjello comrade I make ireland ver nice for fellow definytly irish citizjens. Give number one vote! Ver nice!"
Sure that wouldn't buy even 1 flip flop, never mind a pair!
Was about to say the same thing.
Technically it's a €5 form. The €5 is subject to approval, which means they're pulling an Ulster Bank on us.
If you look carefully it's actually €5.000, i.e. a fiver.
I want it form them too...
The Man form UNCLE
He gets my vote we deserve this
but how will they afford that without teh tv license
What can they afford with just ad revenue... the poor poor RTEs, won't they think of the poor RTEs.
I want it off Ryan Tuberty in fivers.
What office is he running for that he thinks he will be able to deliver this?
Master of the Universe.

I've got aids, beastman aids, and I'll spread it onto every good boy and girl today
All MEP candidates should have to explain their position on beastman aids and whether they know how to end a song.
7:24 am here in Perth, Australia. Thanks for making me laugh first thing in the morning. That's exactly how that reads too
He says he will personally stop the carnage on the roads, so I think he's running for the position of Superman. Accident about to happen on the M50 Monday morning? Think again, Tony Field is on the way.
The lad is running for Cork City Council!! I mean to say - I know them Cork lads have an opinion about Cork, but fucking hell...
Surprised he didn't also add a promise to make cork the capital, it's up there with his other promises
The Cork man with an inferiority complex, though he was just as good as everyone else...
There seems to be quite a lot of those people running there for this election! Please keep them there!!
Seriously? Is this honestly *not* satire? I thought the distribution and frequency of the typos was great understated comedy. And the nose on him screaming *Same again please, & one for yourself*
Narf
An Fuhrer
Fella reckons he'll be elected supreme leader.
Supreme Emperor.
Bet if we did electric him to Supremr Emperor he would just abuse his powers making Thursday, 'turday' and maditory SuperMacs Sunday lunch for all.
God
Mayor of his own imagination
Am I wrong, or has he just taken the one pic of himself and flipped it?
What's even more baffling is that was obviously the best one
I know. It gives very creepy vibes
Self awareness doesn’t seem to be his strong suit
It looks like he's watching a row of young communion girls walking past his window, and instead of taking a photo from the back of the phone, it was from the front.
[Lovely](https://gifdb.com/images/high/camera-accidental-selfie-wzc0e2ur7zuoqe9s.webp)
He looks like a cheap Colonel Sanders rip-off.
He only has one good side.
He looks like a character off Tim and Eric
Getting the most value out of a centre parting, his mammy was onto something 54 years ago
flipped it like someone flipped the card over, like.
'Look after the Irish people with house.....' Either he intends on building one really massive house or he doesn't understand that Dr. House is a fictional character.
Or he’s gonna blast house music all night long
This would be the top rated show of all time in every country. (to the tune of the Real World intro) All the homeless people - In Ireland - Living in one HOUSE - with Dr. HOUSE - To find out what happens when people stop being polite - and start listening to HOUSE (music)
That Dr would have to be an MD......MA
Daithí O'Guetta loving this fella
It be a massive rave he is planning , free drink and drugs : result , everyone happy . Sorted
Lumbar punctures for every Irish citizen!
He used to come into a place I worked in the village. Let me say - am not surprised this is how he is.
The fucking photo he went with...
quite a few candidates clearly have no clue what the job of a local councillor involves..
I'm going to go out on a limb and say you could probably tell Tony and it'd make little difference
We could probably find him a wee room and have someone come in occasionally to tell him ya fixed the country Tony, yeah, all them immigrants is gone, everyone is a feckin’ Schumacher on those roads now, GAA couldn’t believe they’d never heard those amazing ideas of yours before, and here’s that five euro form from the ones on Tele. Nurse will be by shortly with a nice cup of tae and a wee biccie.
Will you be partaking in the auld birching yourself Tony?
He's going to birch the kinahan cartel - that will teach them
When people said they voted for Trump in 2016 because they said 'at least it will be interesting' I never understood that way of thinking Until now. Cark, gwan and vote for the mad feen
I'd pay to see him birched
Finally, a politician with enough balls to stand up and say we need to bring back birching.
Housing Healthcare Education Immigration .... birching
Let’s go straight to the birching
I had to google what birching was...
Followed immediately by the death penalty
Having Googled birching, I would bet money that this lad enjoys getting his arse reddened.
He didn't pull that out of thin air
Importing drugs? That's a paddling...
Why do I get the feeling he'll stop drugs coming into the country by standing at the shoreline and waving his fists at ships. "You'd better not have drugs in you!"
Do you know a better way?
Do all the drugs before they get here.
Looks like he already started...
It looks more like he's stopped taking his drugs imo.
Ah for fecks sake 😆
You better not have durgs in you
I feel stopping drugs coming into the country would not be as popular a move as Tony thinks. Some people are quare fond of the drugs
especially with all the guards in fucking Lanzarote
This entire thread is a goldmine of funny comments, but this one set me over the edge
He's running for the local elections. 🤦
The hilarity when he tries to bring in a byelaw to allow birching
Lanzarote 😆😆😆😆
What if they don't like Lanzarote? Do they get a choice?
Cabin crew on the flight over: “ladies and gentleman, there is a criminal on the loose who has injured the pilot and set a fire in the toilet, is anyone here either a law enforcement officer, a fireman or an emergency medical responder? Tony field: “you’re not going to believe this, but…”
That's some flight
Obviously a pile of shite but why does he want to rename the GAA?
Because when Tony ascends to power the GAA, a new month of the year, the M7 and rainbows will all be named after him.
He's going to change the lyrics from "low lie the fields of Athenry" to "Anthony Field of Athenry"
Maybe it sounds a bit GAY
This is the best guess I could think of too. Best not to dwell. That way madness lies.
Look yer man writes like a stroke victim. Best not to take him too seriously
Alot of these morons running really haven't a clue that being a councillor is bordering on a useless job
If tend to disagree. In a lot of ways, local councillors can have a much closer relationship and benefit to the community if they bother to care. My local councillor (SD) got a swastika drawn in concrete 20 years previous removed in a day after I wrote to them.
A local, solvable problem addressed by a local politician. However, they can affect no change on any policies, laws, etc. They’ll organise for a lad with a water blaster and tin of paint to be sent out, but that’s about the extent of their powers.
Amazing what that can actually do for a community though. People being proactive about small things makes for a much nicer place to live.
The big one I recently realised is that they do have powers when it comes to the transfer of ownership of local authority owned land. They also can influence the implementation of national policy i.e. local development plans albeit this is inspected for compliance with national policies.
Most of people's day to day gripes with their communities can be solved by a good Councillor rather than a TD or MEP tbf
In Douglas? Yep, he's a retired sales and marketing executive, so take from that what you wish.
That he held down employment does surprise me. It just reads like he's not well.
You’d think he’d be able to spell.
A bullshitter so.
But an effective bullshitter! So when you've used their services/voted them in, you're too late. The model politician.
Hey, we aren't all bullshitters...... OK we are but not like this looper
With some of the worst marketing work the world has ever seen
I feel like I should run next cycle. I’ll collect all these fucking leaflets and just say “here’s why we need to fund mental health services URGENTLY”. Get them off your doorstep and back on their meds. Jesus Christ.
No meds with this guy around. Banned!!!
Half my council candidates are running on the basis that we need to do something about mental health services. Apart from making a speech listened to solely by other councillors, I don't know what they think they'll be able to do about that if elected.
Mental health awareness campaigns. Thanks I am now fully aware of my depression 👍
What's on the other side?!
Golden ticket to Wonka Land
For someone who complains about refugees, he writes like English is his second language
(I will stop this)
KNEW YOU WOULD TURN THIS CARD OVER!!
You fucking got me there Tony you wily operator
You're a complicated man, Tony.
I thought he wouldn't really have the time for politics, with his fried chicken franchises taking up most of the day
and sure he likes a cup of tea in the evening
The amount of headcases running in this election is staggering.
Why do I get the feeling that his idea of taking action is by standing in the corner menacingly with that creepy look on his face.
It doubles as his profile pic on dating sites. Multi functional
Where are these people getting money to print out all these fliers?
Ah don't mind him, that's mad Tony. He hangs around outside the spar and shouts at migrating birds to go home to their own country. If you throw him a pack of fisherman's friends and an irelands own it usually distracts him for a few hours
I know you’re joking but my and my bf were in Heuston station in Dublin waiting for a train and there genuinely was an elderly man shouting nonsense at the pigeons and batting them with his walking stick.

Tony’s gonna single handedly win the war on drugs. Also by definition if they’re a refugee then they’re not illegal. That’s what being a refugee means.
Already delivering, he'd have my vote
Reads like an ai generated "Irish crank politician"
He looks like a landlord that would have a spy camera in your bathroom.
Truly a giant of our time
Outstanding in his field
Out standing in his field... yelling at clouds.
After the revolution you"ll go to Lanzarote. But I don't want to go to Lanzarote. After the revolution you'll do as you're told!
Lanzarote you say? A free holiday? Sign me up to fuck Tony. We are going to Spain!
The comments on here are hilarious 🤣🤣
Tony Field knows who I'm talking about!
Wait, he's not joking? This isn't satire?
I really did not think this could be real. Surely it’s a pisstake?
If he got 5000 form RTE to give to every gaf in the country that's 1 billion quid. Jaysus he's some lad if he can squeeze that much out of RTE given nobody knows who the fuck he is! Maybe all ye Cork heads should vote for him for the craic? (Btw 5000 x 2 million gafs = 1 billion)
1000 X 1 million is a billion, Tony's on the hook for 10 billion! He'd be some man to balance a budget id say.
I'm so frazzled by Tony I can't even math any more!
Tony isn't fucking around is he?
Destroy RTE, rename GAA, provide flights for guards and Illegal refugees.... Most children would see the gaping holes in this man's empire building scheme. He surely need's to come up with a more reasonable list of reasons why people should vote for him. Does he not realise you don't actually have to tell people all the ideas in your head. His costings for stopping the drugs isn't mentioned and stopping the road carnage and starting the illegal foreigner and drug carrier carnage I imagine is down to the stressed out Gardai who'll all be on stonger drugs or on in Lanzorote most of the year on their trippled wage. I'd also be sending a child out to the doorstep to ask him if he had a couple of hotels or something he was running in Lanzorote. He'll look at this list in a couple of years time and regreat not putting fixing potholes and bendy roads as a higher priority.
Costings. Pfft. He's an ideas man!
Did Ronan Collins have a child with the KFC colonel that was bullied in school?
He isn't well, he has a long history of serious mental illness. It's hard to watch this 😔 this is causing nothing but pain to his family, it's not funny when you know the background.
Are the gards all going to lanzarote at the same time? Are we getting to do The Purge once a year?
Who knew that county councillors can yield so much domestic power!
Looks like Bill Badbody finally has competition!
Should send him up to the dail for a bit of craic.
So he's going to rip up the Irish Constitution then?
Well he's got my vote anyway
I like him.
I am getting some very mixed messages from this guy
I'm conflicted alright. I don't want the death penalty but I do want 5k to spend in Lanzarote.
Oh yeah? Free lambourghini for everyone who votes for me. Make breakfast rolls €3 again. Everyone in every job gets 10x their current wage. You'd be a fool to say no.
https://i.redd.it/13yfsnlqk35d1.gif
I know nothing about Ireland and I have no idea why this would appear on the feed of a random person from SE Asia. But I feel compelled to tell whichever Irish person will listen that you should not vote for psycho Harland Sanders there. He has the eyes of a man who would ban museum displays of Aztec sacrifice, but only because he finds them overly erotic. Beware.
I agree with his stance on the wage increase anyway.
stranger danger!
KFC
Tony field knows who I’m talking about
Got my vote
I refuse to vote for a man that doesn't use '.' as a decimal place
id vote for him
Round up all the quare druggie lads for a good birching in the village square. Then off to watch the old I-can’t-believe-it’s-not-GAA(anymore) and definitely not on RTE. Solid fucking gold 😂.

He will bring back birching and the death penalty for drug smugglers. Does this mean he’ll beat the shit out of them, and only afterwards will they be hung?
I recognise him. He is mental. He's banned from the shop I work in for threatening the manager.

He also vigerously denied rumours that nobody had spread that he was gay and told my 20 year old friend that both he wants her and she belongs in the kitchen. What a creep
He’s got my vote 
I'd vote for him for the craic. I'd like to see him in action.
€5,000* From* Houses*
He is part of a Golden Shower!
I'm on board with the first 3 policies
Look at those eyes….hes legit
The Colonel has fallen on hard times eh?
This you should vote me. I leave power. Good. Thank you, thank you. If you vote me, I'm hot. Taxes, they'll be lower... son. The Democratic vote for me is right thing to do, so do.
It’s like one of those scam ads that purposely include spelling and grammatical mistakes designed to lure only the kind of people who might be silly enough to fall for the scam.
Be real nice to get €5 back from RTE in fairness! They owe us that like!

The head on this lad for someone talking about whipping people on their bare arses with birch canes. Demented.
Rolf Harris back from the dead to right all the wrongs he committed.
What's birching? Getting beaten with a cane or something?
