CALLER 1: Sweat and toil. Paid his taxes. Handsome and hardworking. He was entitled. So was I and so are our children. To health. His country let him down. We want justice. Why did he take the step of self-euthenasia? It's the big word the government have forgotten about. It's "suicide". We have a mental health service in this country that closes at five o'clock. The GPs and Mental Health hospitals are not doing their job because they're not accountable. People have to stand up for their human rights. If this happened in any other country, the streets would be lined. There would be pickets everywhere. Never turn your back on each other. You go running to your brother who's in need of help. Hold you head up high. Never be ashamed.
CALLER 2: Just listening to what she's saying there. Brings back memories. Very tough trying to get her the help she needed.
JOE: They've ads on saying "look after your mental health"
CALLER 2: I feel like pullin' the telly off the wall. It's almost impossible to get help in this country.
14:33
CALLER 3: We need a militant approach immediately. The health system has failed. What good is all this money if we don't have a health system. Our health is our wealth.

CALLER 4: In the most awful dirty untidy hospital. A worse prison you wouldn't find anywhere. He came out and said "I've tried everything" and he killed himself.
14:49
CALLER 5: They wouldn't admit him in as he tried to get himself committed. He went outside and started throwing rocks at the hospital. They called the cops and got a barring order keeping him from coming any where near the place. He went on to commit suicide. That advertisement on TV is a joke.

Sirens, diggers, drivers, radio callers, an absolute racket of noise and negativity.

Yes, we've been trying to get a data linked interlink centre harmonised for car registrations for the past four years.
- Known to the world as "a database". For numbers. Four fucking years.
17:57
We don't want to replicate the mistakes made elsewhere, so we're doing nothing, like. That'd be stupid. I'm speaking in a calm voice to patronise thee.
- Yeah it's a virtual knowledge system that queries the data from a central location.
Database, mother fucker. It's called a "databse". I can set one up from my laptop in five minutes. I can hire a student to do it.

Transparency sucks, if you're the government and you have testified that you provide it when you don't.

FFFuck! It was the Guinness lorry that caught fire in the Port Tunnel. Let me in - I'll ferry the water personally.

"We gived out a million leaflets when we opened so it's people's fault if they don't know what to do when we suddenly decide to close the tunnel. They should keep our press releases in their glove box."

Puzzling:
The weather may have been predictable as a baby's bottom on the first day of the festival.
