I've left people right after a first date. I'd say most men don't even get 1 date of 2 hours. I love the comments of toxic men, saying that after 1 day with her, they would run away. It's better to be alone, than being in a toxic relationship. Of course we are trying to do the right things, but women need their independence as well. Every relationship will influence the next one. But you have to be careful with who you date. I love the song, because if a man does that to women he is seen like "alpha", but when a woman leaves them, they get confused. Slytherin Girl from ItalyIt's a song about why men get dropped, so stop being cynical about her body.Zodeus BloombergWho are the men from the video.On Monday, Mr McDade’s partner, nursing assistant Rhonda Shiels, appeared in a case challenging the decision by the Southern Health and Social Care Trust to dismiss her after she liked and shared the Facebook Live recording. The hearing is set to resume on Wednesday morning for final submissions. “This was going global, it was going viral, and the negative exposure for the company was startling,” he said. Mr Jordan said while the GAA is an important customer, he said that was not the sole reason for the decision to dismiss Mr McDade. He described a cross-community business which employs from both denominations and was built on good relations. Mr Bryson said the clip was taken of the video by an SDLP representative and “deliberately edited and put online for political gain”.Įarlier in the day, Norman Emerson Group business development director Conor Jordan, who conducted the investigation into Mr McDade, gave evidence. Under questioning by his own representative, Mr Bryson, Mr McDade said if he had been aware of the offensive chanting he would have removed the video earlier. Mr O’Donoghue, however, put to Mr McDade that he had “removed the evidence”. Mr McDade said he removed the video because he had been getting threats, and also deleted his Facebook profile for his own safety. The video was removed in the early hours of June 3. “You knew exactly what you were posting, and it’s an insult to everyone’s intelligence to suggest you didn’t,” Mr O’Donoghue stated. The barrister also put to Mr McDade he had meant to broadcast to just his friends on Facebook but as the live stream was public, the video went viral and he was “found out”. Mr O’Donoghue noted the video ended as the song ended, and put to Mr McDade it is “plain as the nose on your face that you were videoing that song”, to which Mr McDade replied: “No”, adding that the clip was taken from a longer video. The shorter clip of the full video was shown to the hearing room. Under questioning, Mr McDade contended the full four-minute video had included him moving around the hall taking in Orange bannerettes on display. Mr O’Donoghue described the Emerson family and their firm as non-sectarian, and that managing director George Emerson, who is a friend of the Harte family, phoned them to apologise for the actions of one of his employees. Mr McDade said he had had two cans of beer, but was not drunk. It was pointed out to him that his apology statement last year referred to “actions fuelled by alcohol”. ![]() Mr O’Donoghue also asked Mr McDade if he had been drunk when he took the video, to which the claimant responded: “Definitely not.” Mr McDade said he had not done those things personally, but believed his representative Jamie Bryson had written on his behalf.

He did not appeal his dismissal last year.ĭuring the industrial tribunal hearing in Belfast, representatives from Norman Emerson Group said they feared reputational damage to their firm, which included the GAA among its customers, after the clip went viral. Mr McDade was suspended on June 3, while an investigation was carried out, and then dismissed. His employer became linked with the video because Mr McDade’s Facebook profile description included their name. However Mr McDade contends he was not aware of the offensive chanting and had simply been streaming to “show the atmosphere of the day” at an event to mark Northern Ireland’s centenary, adding he could not be responsible for the actions of others during a live stream.
