Reilly does it again
I am out of circulation for one day and what happens?
That little sack of pus Reilly is at it again.
Ex-minister wants Dunnes, Tesco, Supervalu to stop selling cigarettes.
The cunt just can’t help himself, can he? He gets his name in the papers doing his “think of the cheeeldren act” and it goes straight to his head. He has to think up another wheeze to get his name in the papers again. There must be an election in the offing.
So what is his logic this time? Is it to protect the cheeeldren? Well no, because all tobacco has to be hidden anyway. Is it “for the sake of our health”? That can’t be it because we just go to the nearest shop that sells tobacco. No, it’s nothing logical or even vaguely so. It’s just a glimpse of his twisted view of the world and presumably to turn the screws still further on the smoker.
He said he would like to see Tesco, Supervalu, Dunnes Stores and other big retailers end the sale of tobacco products because they were “supposed to be providers of food and nourishment and nutritional goods”.
Who the fuck is he to say what supermarkets should sell? In fact who is he to determine what shops are “supposed” to do? It is none of his fucking business.
He said “they should take the lead and stop selling” cigarettes.
Here we go again. “Taking the lead”. “Sending a message”. Blah blah blah. He is an absolute goldmine of clichés and catch phrases.
Dr Reilly, a GP, said the issue was personal for him because his father had a stroke and was left blind for the last 14 years of his life due to smoking.
Ah yes. Using his father as a pathetic excuse for his tirades. As a supposed doctor he should know that non-smokers have strokes too, but why spoil a good story?
His brother was a public health doctor but was unable to quit the habit and died of lung cancer aged 60 and more recently his brother-in-law aged 62 also died of lung cancer.
Let’s bring the whole family into the crusade while we are at it. Of course it would never occur to the vile shit that there might be an element of genetics at play here? Let’s see now…. One was 60, the other was 62, and Reilly is 62. Of course if it were genetics he would be shitting himself by now so it is so much easier to blame smoking to calm his worries.
My contempt for that bag of shit knows no bounds.
James Reilly – a prime example of good health.

Reminiscent of fuckallinrockall a sadly missed site.
Hah! No, I hadn’t seen that before.
He lost his ministry under a cloud. He lost his deputy leadership. Then he lost his seat. He got the consolation prize of a Seanad seat just to shut him up [an unelected position].
Now he seems to be grasping at straws in the hopes of being re-elected again. The man is a creep, a bully and is power mad so he can continue to torment tobacco users.
I’m beginning to understand why Ireland has appointed a Minister of Loneliness or some such thing as you mentioned in a post some months back. Perhaps they need to appoint a Minister of Common Sense; but maybe, like here in the good ole US of A, it ain’t so common!
Welcome Rhonda! I would consider myself fairly typical of thousands of pensioners. I happen to be married but many aren’t. So where are we supposed to meet people and socialise? The pub is long gone unless we fancy sitting outside in the Naughty Area and the same goes for any club or meeting place. The local coffee shop is a favourite place during the daytime but Reilly wants to deny us that too. And as most pubs turned to providing food when the smoking ban hit them drastically, even their Naughty Areas will be out of bounds as well.
Here’s a tip for Dr Reilly; all human beings one day will die. You can eat only the most nutritious food, drink only water, run marathons every week and never smoke. You will still die. Bit of a boring life really. You can eat what you like, drink what you like, smoke what you like and be a couch potato. You will die. Probably younger than the bored guy. But much happier. Why do some people get their kicks by telling others, nay forcing others, to do things like this man Reilly? Power trip. UGH!
Do all the healthy things – live a miserable rest of your days drooling and dribbling in the corner of a nursing home and costing the state a fortune in care and pensions.
Personally I have only one ambition for the future – to outlive Cunt Reilly and dance on his grave.
As my wise old father used to say, “If you don’t drink, don’t smoke and don’t go with mucky women, you won’t live any longer, but it will just feel like it”.
And as the hotel night-porter allegedly said when delivering yet another chilled bottle of vintage champagne to George Best’s room, finding him lounging in bed with a naked Miss World, the bed littered with £50 notes, “Where did it all go wrong, George?”.
An Open Email To James Reilly
Dear Dr. Reilly, Thank you for all your sterling work ensuring the success of our business model and for your unwavering assistance in expanding our customer base. Truly we could have no better friend in your parliament. Of course we too look forward to a time when those wishing to continue to feed their filthy addiction no longer have easy access to their drug of choice. Especially those addicts residing in rural communities who depend on supermarket deliveries will then flock to our appointed agents. HOWEVER we feel we must make you aware that due to several bad harvests ,no doubt caused by global warming, we are AT PRESENT not easily able to service such an increase in demand. Also our accountants inform us that increasing regulation, world wide, is hampering our profits re-investment programmes. If you could please postpone the next phase of operations for a few years we would be eternally grateful. Yours Sincerely Dr. Eval Nick O’Teen. Chief Gasper & Lord High Hacker Of Her Majesty’s Worshipful Company Of Tobacco Blackmarketeers, Free traders, Counterfeiters and Smugglers.
PS.Grandad, i wrote that bit of non-grammatical nonsense before I had checked Simon’s site and seen your own letter.
his father had a stroke and was left blind for the last 14 years of his life due to smoking.
In that case smoking probably did him a favour, not having to see that cunt for the last few years of his life. Probably wished he’d gone deaf too.
My thoughts exactly.
I notice this guy, as with our own Stephen Williams, seem to have a typical “survivor complex” and must, in private at least, wonder if they were indeed the reason why Daddy and Mummy didn’t do the right thing and quit.
In both cases they didn’t and perhaps telegraphed that to their overbearing offspring.
However I have to say that Reilly is a perfect reason why the Irish should legalise abortion on demand, at the slightest whim, no reason required. And in his case, make it retrospective.
That’s a bit harsh? I confess to having a chuckle though…….
He does not look the fittest of men does he ?
Well overweight and with high blood pressure. Setting a fine example.
He is a general practitioner, holier than thou, doctor.
You might find this game of interest GD.

There’s a film in that. It’s an interesting thought though. Everyone [especially politicians and Jamie Oliver] would have to be extra nice to everyone just in case they get nominated?
I would have thought that the big supermarkets are the most careful about selling to underage people. Of course this would be only the start, next it would be sugar drinks, then beer, until all they sold was stuff passed by vegans.
