No ownership of wine bars or a vineyard was declared in the declaration of financial interests that the TD made when he joined the European Parliament in 2019

However, in a revised declaration of financial interests submitted to the European Parliament this week, Mr Wallace states that “during the three-year period” before taking up office as an MEP in 2019 he earned between €1 and €499 a month in a position of “adviser” to Wallace Calcio Ltd, alongside his salary as a TD.

The leadership of Mr Wallace’s Left group in the parliament are set to meet the Wexford politician to hear his explanation for the apparent omission in his initial declaration of financial interests, which is politically sensitive at a time when the Left group is calling for high standards of transparency in the wake of theMr Wallace is a member of the parliament’s Environment, Public Health and Food Safety committee, which deals with legislation affecting the catering and hospitality industry.

Oz Clarke eat your heart out. Tom Doorley get to Strasbourg.

So what

'Ah, so that's how you get the cork out of the bottle.....jeez, thanks mick for the help'.

Mixer the wine expert!!! What next? Clare Daly the influencer.

I’m unconvinced that Mick Wallace does not actually own the wine bars.

I am so deeply shocked......

The pure greed of politicians is a sad reflection of their values and the reason who Irish Politics at every level is a souless example to young people, empty of values with no respect. This is a typical example, 125 euro a week on top of the TD/MEP wages and expenses. Sad lot.

Saved a lot of money on haircuts -

So who got to see his tax returns ? another smoke screen if you ask me

What were they selling, Buckfast?

Avoidance or evasion mr taxman come and take another look at his google books

If there are any 'Wine Bars' out there looking for an adviser please consider me for the position. I have extensive experience of screw tops and corks and am confident I could get up to speed on wine boxes. Hic! MickWallace TheUnelectables

I take it the wine bars are owned by a family member such as his kid ....This man has a wonderfully large neck and a very guilable and stupid band of supporteres

Chase that money all the way back to Russia!

Must be about to report truth if best effort can come up with compared to The Ditch actually on Dáil members who effect reality Irish citizens here ?

See, you can't defend anyone, how can they not see these as problems, they say 'just say no to drugs' to kids. About time the kids say to those in power 'say no to bribes' and to the media 'no to extortion'

It's always the eegits piping up the loudest who are found out. Christy Moore banging on about ireland housing the world and simultaneously objecting to housing developments from his plush gaff in dun laoghaire. Some shower of gombeens in this country.

He earned 6k a year as an adviser - Is this really worthy of a story? Or perhaps Naomi O’Leary is targeting Mick Wallace and Clare Daly because they don’t conform to pro-Brussels thinking?

Welfare cheater cheat us all 😂

Now this is creative

Are we the tax payers still funding his tax repayments from his TD/MEP salary?

And i'm sure this is nothing a way to detract from the FG members that were caught with thousands of undeclared donations, and dozens of properties.

He looks more like a Beamish drinker

One cowboy out ,, an ego in 😉

RuSSia's useful amadán

That thing should be in prison

Here's the declaration itself:

Always been a cowboy. A dim and dangerous one at that.

Some going for a fella who went bankrupt and knowingly made false declarations to the taxman.

He’s taking the piss

If he were an 'advisor' to a barber he might get a haircut!?

I’d say it’s not all he’s “undeclared”

A business he Alledgedly doesn't own anymore 🤣🤣🤣
