    No way FG will give them Finance. Although they might get a special appointment into the Dept of Finance.

    It would be foolish for FG to give that away to Labour, considering the cuts that need to be made

    They will demand it, they better not get it. Give them Education, Health, Defence, Arts and Sports,

    Ruairi Quinn done a very good job last time, IMO. But for Gods sake keep that Burton one away from the petty cash jar.

    They're in no position to be making demands.

    Oh sweet jebus I hope not. The thought of Joan "mooaning" Burton in charge of the petty cash makes me sick!

    Indeed, if labour demand too much then FG may opt to go the minority government route.
