Look at her face when Ben makes a mistake, like a stroppy teenager, then him on the right giggling away.
Well done Ben, keep it up.
Yeah exactly! The real face of privilege in Ireland. Like the Green Party and FG,Labour and Workers Party before them.
A bit of privilege among these three.
My thoughts exactly 😂
I love the Muppets.
Adult size toddlers.
They made Ben say his question knowing he got it wrong and then asked him to repeat it. And the worst answer ever. Unbelievable
Spotted that, Dirty Play... Now we know..
Who are these people
@@annhogge6501Nobody's who want to be somebody's for no other reason then its trendy .
@@annhogge6501 bunch of leftie losers.
Stupid smug little people.
She used her, I'm an idiot privilege to dodge that one.
Big time. She's an over privileged, spoiled, little brat.
She knew exactly what you were on about. Sliveen.
I'm so fed up with the term WHITE PRIVELAGE.
Thats the idea. destroy western culture.
Here in Britain White privilege, especially if you are a male working class kid means being sidelined for all the good stuff, second rate education, very hard to get help for further education, filtered out when applying for the best jobs, treated like a third class citizen in your own country, the whole system is stacked against you and the statistics bear that out.
There's not a damn thing wrong with being white
..wasn't a big fan of Vanilla Ice tbh
@@johnc3403…..MC Hammer wasn’t much better!😉
Its fantastic being white just like coloured people would think thats fantastic. No such thing as privilege being any colour
@@johnc3403 Was that because he's white (making you an evil racist), or because as an individual you couldn't appreciate this other individuals musical talents?
Tut tut
Millions of non whites would live to white but becasue they aren't they attack the race .The irony
There is a benefit of having these questions asked and recorded.
Heck I've even got photos of relatives going to school with no shoes... Yet they want to suggest we are privileged... It's such an insult
wearing no shoes is racist
Went to school shoeless also .....whom should I sue ?
@@tomgreene1843 In effect, they are training lions to turn a blind-eye as the hyenas drag their cubs away to be eaten. Eventually, lions will become extinct. And _that,_ my friends, is the plan. The difference between the Irish and lions is, lions wouldn't sit back as their offspring are being consumed.
Nothing wrong with being white and I owe nobody anything as.a.result
One can only shake their head in disbelief.
They look like 3 confused rabbits in the headlights. Another non-answer.
Look at the state of them.
It's OK o be White, Being Irish - really Irish - is indeed a privilege and one that should be protected and denied to so many who want to aquire the paper citizenship and ultimately erase the actual Irish people.
Very politically incorrect and most likely a thought crime if new "hate speech" law comes in, but well said and spot on.
That's exactly what they want to do, the cunning treacherous fools that they are, absolutely nothing social or democratic about them.
Great comment
As a non-Irish person, I highly approve what you're saying here.
Much appreciated . The sad part is that by giving away what should be such a valuable and precious thing (Citizenship) it demeans it so much and also, that, overall it is bad for even those, who although not deserving of such a privilege, over time, have been given something decreasing in value and meaning all the time
However, mostly it robs the Irish people of something very precious which they have by virtue of blood (one or more Irish parents) and basic history,heritage, culture. If I was Greek, Japanese or Nigerian I would feel the very same about the issue, from the perspective of being a Citizen of those countries.
As is now we have already blundered terribly by already granting Citizenship so easily to so many who just use it a very useful piece of paper / stamp to serve their own personal interests. Fault is not theirs for taking advantage of an opportunity presented by our state. Oe can not like or respect such people too much on this account but still the blame is on the Irish people. Government, politicians for allowing, encouraging this farce.
Immigration ad having a certain amour of “The Other” coming into and living in a country is fine and can even be good, but the key is the proportion, scale and quality of the people afforded this luxury.
How long or hard would it be for me to become Japanese or Nigerian? In the case of EU fellow citizens the gap could be smaller alright, but as a general rule it should be incredibly hard to obtain citizenship through “naturalization”, not insurmountable but just reflective of how much it is valued and cherished, if we were not such a dysfunctional, deluded, society, nation as we sadly are nowadays.Much appreciated .

It is a savage indictment of Irish politics, that such a political lightweight as Holly - well actually more like featherweight or even fluff weight - now has a national platform! When she has literally ZERO political achievements, usually embarrasses herself when she opens her mouth through either her total lack of experience, or knowledge of a subject, all while simultaneously striving to earn as many woke brownie points as possible. It's no wonder no one takes her seriously. And this has nothing to do with misogyny. I would direct the exact same criticism at a male politician. The difference being that he couldn't use the cover of his gender to deflect it.
She's nothing but a spoilt, petulant little brat.
The same way AOC in the US gets so much media attention....they are both very attractive, young, left wing females.
True. SD are a waste of time.
Yep - its true that the lowest forms of life from the outskirts of society seem to have bubbled to the surface in Irish politics: she's probably subsidised by money from one of those NGO's and promoted by the msms which probably also receiving subsidies from the same bodies.
Brilliant comment Martin, couldn't of hit the nail more on the head.
Their eyes, it's always in their eyes, these people are lost souls
I love the idea that this Party thinks they can build 50,000 homes per year when their leader can't even answer a simple yes or no question.
It seems to me that they are not bothered about building more homes because they know the extra houses will not be needed in the future. Same problems are running their courses in all Western countries.
It’s not just western countries
Asian countries
African countries
South America
they couldnt build 50 bags of chips a year
They are wasters. Far left wasters
It's absolutely possible if you. Change the definition of home to "shack in a shanty town"
Another establishment party I will pass
Can we trust any of these dirty snakes ?
Everyone one of them lie to get elected.
noone asked
That was entertaining. The faces on the three of them. 😂😂
The vacant stares seem to coincide with their minds..

🤣🤣🤣
,😆😆😆 ..I think she had a stroke around 1.01
Why don't you become a politician since you seem so sure and full of yourself
The Irish received such privilege worldwide throughout history. The privilege of being second class citizens in their own country for the vast majority of the last 1000 years. The privilege of being the victims of attempted genocide on more than one occasion. The privilege of being indentured servants in the new world.
And the privilege of actual genocide during The Great Famine.
Get over yourself, Gerry. No one harmed *you*. Ireland has been an independent country for 100 years, so stop blaming others.
@@Yieri-un6rjSo what? It's 2024 and a TD rambling on about White people being privileged in their own country is ridiculous. Class distinctions are by far more important. The empire is used to distract from the fact that some countries have failed to develop adequately in the post-colonial era.
@@iansaxon1987They've had sovereignty for 100 years. Still babbling on about oppression is embarrassing. If they chose not to enhance the use of their language, that's on them as a sovereign nation.
@jmccullough662 What are you talking about? *we* are being harmed now by yet again foreign positions of power dictating how to run things here from Brussels (again facilitated by traitors) and yet again another plantation to replace the Irish people themselves.
Bunch of 🤡
You actually listen to dj khaled 'music' tho yet you call someone else a klown 😮
Why do you listen to munk... E music?
If your a nationalistt yet listen to pretend gang sta munk.. E music.. That too me is also actions of a proper klown
These three as pro Grammed and all as they are.. They actually believe what they do is right because they pro Grammed.. But you actually listen to rap music and I guarantee those three don't even listen to it and you call them klowns 😮😮
Yep
Ms Murphy should step down or vote her out!
She's pro-abortion and anti-Zionist; a typical nasty lefty.
You can tell in their facial expressions & eyes that the quote they were hearing was horrifying. 'How could one of our own say such a thing...". BUT they also knew they couldn't give any other response than the deflection she gave....cause they can't break loyalty to the party system & its leaders, whether they be current or former. It would be great if the Gript Media would give her another chance to address the quote, now that she's had time to see the 'context' etc. What else could the 'context' be though? Murphy knew what she meant & said it openly.
@@gavfitzpatrickit's us they hate, not themselves. They think they're above us.
Catherine Murphy completely contradicted herself..she also forgets her Dublin West origins..
I misspoke and said "Catherine Martin" instead of "Catherine Murphy" because about 60 seconds before my question, another journalist had asked about RTÉ severance packages, so I had Media Minister Catherine Martin on the brain. Just a slip of the tongue.
no worries you did fine and always do a professional job thank you Ben
Keep it up Ben
as if she really didn't understand who you meant! This is still a go-to video - the Three Stooges live on.
Who in their right mind would vote for these people!!!!
Holly is from Cork and is a Complete Langer. She said in her Speech “Ireland is not full- it is broken.”
It certainly is completely broken by the shower of Langers in Government. Ireland is very full and many of our Irish Children have to leave because they cannot afford a home to live in now and for the rest of their lives, and this is because the Government has removed the Supply of homes.
Holly - Economics of homes is based on the law of Supply and Demand, and when either is interfered with it affects the Cost of the Homes.
E.g. there is a Demand for homes by the Irish BUT there is very little Supply because the Irish Government is purchasing most of the Homes to give to Non-Irish.
@@Hometruths29 Probably E!ectric Shock Treatment. 😂😂😂
@@Hometruths29 she has spent too much time making tea for block layers and has coppied thier language and dialect
What's with the D4 accent on her?
They're own TD said it and act so confused about the question.
The context is that she was talking about Irish people, who, even though we had been under British oppression for over 800 years, suffered mass emigration, prison, torture, death, attempted genocide, excuse me, _famine,_ Cromwell, the Black and Tans etc etc etc.. we were still privilege because we had white skin. In fairness, she could be getting us confused with a another class of Irish people, bless her ignorant little heart.
@jahson70 well said.
That's right. Catherine Murphy is so wrong on this, and there were a gaggle of other females from various parties joining in. Shame on them. Ashling Murphy's white privilege did not assist her. A closed border might have saved her life, we'll never know.
I don't even have a clue who these people are
Imagine voting for these clowns.
the problem in ireland is..... there is no one to vote for.... SF are traitors, FF/FG/Cabbage party trio are total WEF pupets, so only small nationalist parties but people wont vote for them under the guise of theil never get to power.
The face of fail
They are a JOKE.
GOOD MAN Ben... you're worth a THOUSAND of them @#££
When GRIPT ask direct questions the recipients look terrified, look at their faces of these three.
Empty vessels weasling, standing for the nothing they know for they know not what to stand for.
She knew what the question meant.
Who in the Dail represents Irish people
Few new independents, Matty McGrath and that’s all.
Rest are traitors.
Probably the cleaners
Irish, Christian and proud, Erin go Bragh
What a slap in the face for the brave men and women that fought and died that Ireland might be free. In their memory, I wish to distance myself from all of these mainstream politicians who stand up for everything but the indigenous Irish people.
I think a lot of people in government have forgotten the history of this country need to take a good look back.
This is the funniest video yet from Gript. When Ben asked a very basic question about the social Democrats position they all had faces on them like it was there first day out of Psych ward and the Doctor was screening them with questions to see if they were ready to reintegrate into society😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The potato famine......lots of white privilege....like us choosing to die with or without last rites from a priest.
All you have to do when someone asks you a question is... just dont answer it. Voila! a successful politician.
CAN'T even answer a BASIC QUESTION.
But sure, she did answer it. You can't expect her to remember everything said in the Dail ages ago.
@1.02 , the look-away of resignation of the guy on the left (no pun intended) is priceless. like he knows this'll get legs and they will be forever branded as traitors to the Suffering of the irish under 800 years of British oppression.
Did I understand this properly 🤔 The Irish people enjoyed white privileges whilst they were subjects under British law 😂😂
And soon to have the penal laws enacted again by their own traitor government.
These are the IQ levels we are dealing with 🤮
Who knew
" No irish need apply' - Murphy's law...
We are Irish, we dont have or never had "White privilege!" 🤦
White and proud.....us Irish Don’t owe anybody anything.🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
💚🍀🇮🇪🍀💚🇮🇪
I’m proud to be white. We are not privileged and never were.
What exactly are you proud about? Genuine question
If he was black and said i'm proud to be black would that be ok? Why shouldn't you be proud of your own race and identity? @@FlaminggMoe

SUPPORT GRIPT MEDIA 🇮🇪
Politicians always look so uncomfortable when Ben is asking questions. 😂
Gript are the only journalistic outfit with any semblance of credibility.
Holly is hopeless
How can these be trusted to lead a country when they can't even answer a basic question
"The Billionaires pay the millionaires, to convince the working class to blame the poor". And of course it is the poor that is the problem, as the poor have all the money and the power to change the world, and make it a better place for all. God help us all...
The Irish light
Real journalism
Not afraid to ask the serious questions
The peasants fleeing Ireland had a shorter life expectancy than slaves in the U.S., many of whom enjoyed healthier diets and better living quarters. Most slaves slept on mattresses, while most poor Irish peasants slept on piles of straw. The black scholar W.E.B. Du Bois wrote that freed slaves were poor by American standards, “but not as poor as the Irish peasants.”
It’s all so tiring.
She is the leader of a political party. My God.
It has come to this ....but she has been a victim of a brainwash .
I'm sick of these evil people. My ancestors left southern Ireland because the alternative was starvation. They worked in the Manchester cotton Mills, then the coal mines in Barnsley. They were treated like 💩 but still fought in both ww1 and 2. And still their politicians are putting their own people down. This treacherous attitude as to stop. It's an attitude only the politicians seem to be able to afford.
Good stuff Ben
What planet are they from?
Comrade Cairns is a muppet if ever I saw one 😂 the gormless facial expressions are hilarious. Image of three spoiled schoolchildren 😂
I'm proud to be white with Celtic red hair genetics.
amazing how politicians never actually answer a question
Ok next question what is a Woman ?
"Well, I'm a woman, eh, eh, eh.. Because I feel like a woman" 🤢
"Sorry, I'd have to check the context on that"
Let everyone accept their privilege over others, those who had parents that loved them over those with none, those who have a home over those who don’t, those who have shoes over those that don’t, those who can spend the time worrying about racial privilege over those too busy working so they can eat today, privilege exists not because of the colour of your skin but the circumstances of your existence, I bless the privilege of life I have everyday over the loved ones I’ve lost.
Proud to be Irish,White and from Ireland.
What a brainwash.
That face she makes at the end 😂😂😂
My family, Aunts Uncles, Parents left County Mayo in the 1930s they worked hard, harder than I ever did; harder than those bullshitting politicians ever did.
When they died the houses they bought and paid for was passed on to their children.
Among their grandchildren are two Doctors, a Barrister, a Chartered Surveyor, a Civil Engineer, a Nurse, aTeacher, a Mechanic, a Haidresser, a few clerical workers.
I never saw any Irish white privilege except among the ranks of elitist Irish politicians I saw in 1950s Ireland, indifferent to the disgraceful emigration that was tolerated by them.
I was born in England but grew up in Dun Laoghaire, returning to England in 1963 aged 16.
In spite of all the prejudice towards the UK at that time, they took better care of their citizens than Ireland.
Now we see the upper crust Liberal class, overstuffed with smug self righteousness ready to give the farm away.
Car crash. The body language says it all.
THE LATEST LEFTY STAND UP COMEDY SHOW FOLKS 😂😂😂
Okay, so basically great face pulling there. Cool.
Ben you should have asked the silly whowah "under what context would this EVER be acceptable for Irish people to have this belief in their privilege"??
This statement by that woman is appalling, it stands apart. There is no way native Irish people are ever going to accept the kind of carry on that has become the norm in US and UK. Those countries can argue their history justifies black supremacist ideas that is their business, it won't wash here. Disgraceful.
💯
The face of that!
Bad News for Holly. There is a chronic shortage of Irish Craftspersons.
RQ a Labour TD (2011-2014) commerced the dismantling of one of the best systems of Apprenticeship in the World- the removal of some of the Apprenticeship Teaching from Institutes of Technology- where the Apprentices were trained by the best highly skilled and very qualified Craftspersons. Many of these Institutes of Technology Lectures had competed and won medals in the WorldSkills Competitions.
(The 47th WorldSkills Competition will take place 10-15 September 2024 in Lyon).
The Dismantling of the Brilliant Apprenticeship system is being completed recently by Fine Gael TD Simon Harris when he transferred most Construction Apprentice Training to FÁS.
Construction Trade Apprenticeships is now in complete shambles. Ireland will probably never win any Medals in the WorldSkills Competitions again. What a disgrace. Don’t worry- Holly has your back and will sort all of this.
How smug and belittling she and her merry men came across...they knew full well who he meant.
They understood the question, no doubt. You can see their disdain
Look at that smirk. People were being starved and murdered but were still privileged, disgusting
Ginger Privilage!! I hope Gannon is out on his ear this time. #voteno and #voteindependents
