    For the last 12 years FF have been saying FG and Labour are clueless idiots and now they're calling on them to pull their arses out of the fire.

    If the government are prepared to admit they can't govern they should step aside and let the opposition do the job.

    I think this sums up what I imagine is the real reason for the majority of Finna Fail(ure) members in favour of unity government;
    There is also an increasing realisation within Fianna Fail that entering a unity government is the best way of protecting the party from an electoral wipe-out at future elections, with particular focus on the pending local and European elections.

    For the good of the country and all that ... all shoulders to the wheel and all that ...

    Whilst I don't doubt that something akin to the tallaght strategy of the 80s may well be needed, but I dispair of self-serving agenda rather than genuine cause
