The term “pissing against the wind” comes to mind here, men and women.
Without closure of our ports, air and sea (the birthplace of the spread into Ireland) what are we really doing? Lockdown? No. Afraid not. @CMOIreland @rte @LeoVaradkar @PresidentIRL https://t.co/FNyK59dpr8— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 10, 2020
Hi Conor, you’ll notice Extra has changed the title of that article. People are adhering to gov’t reg’s on essential travel & this has been confirmed by RTE, The Irish Times, & by the Taoiseach at last night’s press conference. It is vital that we stick to the facts. Best, Simon

Thanks Simon. Starving for facts here. Can you give the actual number of people who came in this weekend by Stena line? Would not imagine Rte,times,or an Taoiseach to have an eye on your books. We are doing 3 weeks now the exact same as the last 2 yet hoping for different results https://t.co/KZElNWlpPX

Grateful for the transparency here!
Would love it a cool Zero on all non essential travel. I think all here in Ireland locked down would also.
Why not? Would be my question. Lock it fully for the next 3 and see where we land. Now is just way too similar to our previous 2weeks. https://t.co/I5XlhYCine— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 11, 2020
Apologies Simon. I didn’t mean it to feel in this way, like I am not in full respect and admiration for those working through this pandemic. I am in complete awe and admiration of them!
Thank you for your replies to me. Grateful!
God speed and stay safe brother, and all staff 🙏 https://t.co/xPUOyaWqrU— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 11, 2020
👏👊 Respect and thank you on behalf of all the ferry crews, dockers, engineers, onboard services, port staff, tug drivers, stevedores, contact centre teams and everyone working at Stena Line that is keeping the freight moving and countries supplied. Best, Simon

Oh my lord! I wish Simon from stena line would just write “Simon says, go ask my bollox” so i could just bounce out of this. I don’t want to be here guys. Truth be told I want to be where Simon is. Dun Laoghaire marina. My yacht’s there. I’m actually neighbours with this big boat

Hahaha thank you Simon. Remember, if you see a thousand pirates swimming towards your ship, just wave your jocks. Cos there won’t stand a chance 😂🙏

McGregor appeared to track down the aforementioned Simon’s personal account through some late-night Twitter trawling.
Well, well, well men and women.
I’ve found Simon of Stena Line. British native. Works for RTE Pulse. The rave station.
Simon you little egg with a Ronnie.
Campaigning for non essential travelling. Ludicrous!
Close the ports @LeoVaradkar! Ridiculous carry on now. No more. Hurry! pic.twitter.com/awMHYDAVFw— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 12, 2020
Morning Conor, it is important to reiterate that we are asking people to adhere to gov’t restrictions and ONLY travel for ESSENTIAL REASONS and NOT leisure. Happy Easter. Best wishes, The Little Egg with a Ronnie. pic.twitter.com/WbzJr6Ty8L

You cannot ask some, yet tell others. 100s came in for the Easter weekend festivities via plane/boat, while others got fined for walking their dog too far from home.
You see how that makes no sense?Anyway, off to Blackpool today. It’s essential travel, trust me 🏖🍻 https://t.co/dup0lQuybT— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 12, 2020
Conor has no Off switch.
Dude loves online sparring.
