Fianna Fail are seemingly in trouble for playing a song that is about drugs at their ard feis speech. From Breaking News.ie
One of the feelgood tunes used to inspire delegates at the Fianna Fáil Ard Fheis contains references to illegal drug-taking, it emerged today.
The Chelsea Dagger track by Scottish band The Fratellis was blasted out at the Citywest Hotel as Minister for Finance Brian Cowen began his warm-up speech before the Taoiseach’s televised address.
Only the upbeat chorus was heard by delegates but verses in the song twice refer to a girl that “gave me gear” - common slang for drugs, particularly heroin.
Europe Against Drugs (Eurad) international president Grainne Kenny said it was extremely bad taste for the senior Government party to play the song in front of 5,000 delegates.
“It was wholly inappropriate and in very bad taste. And I would go further and say that the party owes an apology to the families that have been affected by drugs.
All I can say to that is ehh. Rock on .

Oh would they ever fuck off. Unless Cowen injected some horse on the podium I don’t see what the issue is. This is as bad as the crap over banning Coca-cola on college campuses.
I think the real story here is that breakingnews.ie might have reported a story that wasn’t a press release. That’ll be a fucking first. Unless, of course, Kenny’s comments were part of a press release.
Does this explain FF strong links with the horse industry? My God the implications!
lol
