Democracy: By the people, for the people, of the people...

As I have often said the biggest problem with democracy is everyone gets a vote.

One commentator over the weekend noted that Beverly played the "poor me" card to highlight how no other NIB employee walked the plank over the tax evasion scam, and as usual she sounded very plausable too.

However, she neglected to tell us that SHE was by far the most successful saleswoman of this particular scheme in the bank. Nobody else came near her in terms of "money-in-the-bank" sales.

Her old man is as slippery as you'll get & she's a chip off the old block. Perfect pediggree for FF.

Her arrogance in suing for libel, her refusal to accept the consequences, should all find her guilty of bringing the (politics) game into disrepute. Instead she laughs all the way to Dail Eireann.

Pass me the bucket...

Oh and her total disregard for taxpayers money means she's ideal future Minister material

It also ignores the fact that the case, which she took herself, was about her denying she sold them. She has never been in court accused of selling them, or left out there by NIB. Indeed NIB coming out saying that all their employee's were selling them would hardly have helped her case, as it would essentially prove she had, wouldn't it?

She claimed she did not so you logic would assume no one else did it either.

She was a politician so it was in the publics interest. It would have served no purpose for RTE to do a report on an individual sales person.

The whole case proves her arrogance. All she had to do was say she did not realise that the products were illegal as she assumed the Bank would not instruct her to sell illegal products. Of course suggested this defence.She would have saved herself 1.2m political isolation as it would have been forgotten within weeks.

All she achieved has been to let the courts decide she sold products to evade tax.
