Green Party TD Paul Gogarty may have dodged a bullet for his infamous ‘F**k You’ outburst in the Dail - but he isn’t off the hook in the eyes of bookie Paddy Power.
Power has installed the colourful politician as their red hot favourite to be the next TD to swear during Dail proceedings.
Gogarty, whose controversial exchange with Labour’s Emmet Stagg hit the headlines before Christmas, is the 7/4 favourite to be responsible for the next outburst.
He is followed by the mild-mannered Fine Gael TD James Bannon at 7/2 and Sinn Fein’s headshop-eliminating Aengus O Snodaigh at 4/1.
Other names in the mix include Fianna Fail’s highly-strung gent Martin Mansergh at 5/1 and Cork rebel Ned O’Keeffe at 8/1.
“Gogarty has proven form in this particular race and is a very strong favourite. I guess the only question is who is likely to be at the receiving end of his next tongue lashing?” Power said.
When it comes to who will be the next offender, I know who my money will be on - Go-Go Gogarty!
