    Basically we are screwed. We have FF, FG and LAB to choose from. Either way all three are going to take seats. All three need to be routed from government.

    FG is as bad as FF, see my other posts/rants on this, but Michael O'Flynn transferred over a billion euro of worthless assest into NAMA the same day he was playing golf with all the top FG TDs.

    Add that to the fact the plan for economic recovery FG is selling is privatising everything (readin: no more free healthcare or other government services) and you can see they are not an alternative, but more of the same, even worse.

    Labour talks the talk, but vote after vote they have fallen in line with FF/FG. Gilmore makes some impressive speeches and points out many flaws, yet continually follows down the same path and votes for the flawed issues he rants about.

    Some might point out we do have a few 'independents' here in Clare, but lets be real - they are just rejects from FF/FG who didn't get a nomination and decided to run anyway. They still have the exact same political views, they just didn't win the local popularity contest. They will be voting alongside whichever party it was they attended the AGM for and didn't get nominated. Look at Tipperary North TD Michael Lowry and Kerry South's Jackie Healy-Rae - they are shining examples of this very thing.

    So basically as I said above, we are screwed.

    This will be tricky for you, seeing as only one of that group is in government.

    What evidence do you have for this assertion? Last time FG/Lab were in government they laid the foundations for the boom. It's not their fault that Fianna Failure poured the boom down the jacks.

    I don't think they are going to privatise everything, but then I'm not opposed to privatisation in principle as long as it does not harm the national interest. It's hard to see how our giant debts can be addressed without raising cash from somewhere - what is your solution?

    We are all screwed, but that was due to Cowen and Fianna Failure. I won't accept that the alternative are as bad without seeing them in action. The evidence is they couldn't possibly be as bad as the guys who had the bloody IMF in.

    Labour didn't get above 1k first preference votes the last time out, and have a brand new candidate running this time. Unless Bhamjee is pulled outta the bag, they won't be getting a seat in Clare.

    They will still be my first preference though. The gombeen/dullard culture of the Clare branches of FF/FG respectively has to be gotten rid of, and voting Ind. (Breen, former FF) isn't the way to go for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 520 ✭✭✭5h4mr0(k


    We need a strong willed independent, along the lines of David McWilliams or Shane Ross, that will fight for the things that have to be done for the sake of the nation. If we don't default on the bank bailout, then everything else is a waste of time.

    Is there anyone in the county that would fit the bill?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,620 ✭✭✭✭dr.fuzzenstein


    If there was an Irish section of the Monster Raving Loony party, they'd get my vote.
    They seem to have the most sensible policies...

    Mneh.. I'm just going to vote FG. Not very encouraged by the party at the moment but hopefully they'll buckle down and do a good job like they did the last time they were in.

    Whoever gets in next is going to have to make a load of unpopular cuts, so I fully expect FF to waltz back in 5 or 10 years down the line because they won't be around to take the flak over the mess they created. Happened in the 90's.. happened in the 80's. It'll happen again this decade.

    Parties are all the same argument is getting tedious. 63 of the 89 years the country has been around the same party has been in. Just vote whoever you dislike the least instead.

    We're going to default on the bank bailout wether we choose to or not. I assume Labour/FG will change their tune shortly. Interesting times ahead.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,936 ✭✭✭golfball37


    Will there be a Sinn Fein candidate? Thats who I'll be voting for. Default on the debt and half ministers pay and pensions.

    The dirty scummy war is long over and its about we all moved on imo. Unless another party or candidate call for default and political reform I'll be voting for SF. [Never thought I'd say that]


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 533 ✭✭✭Claregirl


    ABFF!!!

    That doesn't leave me with much choice tho! I have an aversion to Enda Kenny and Gilmore though!! Just a word of warning to anyone who compulsively gives everyone a score on the ballot though..... Don't do it! You'll end up getting the likes of Dooley back in by default! :eek:

    So it looks like 2 fianna fail, 4 fine gael and 1 labour (Michael Mc Namara)

    http://newswhip.ie/national-2/fine-gael-hq-adds-five-candidates-to-election-lists

    EDIT..Clare councillor Tony Mulcahy, who joins outgoing Deputies Pat Breen and Joe Carey

    HAVE I THEM ALL NOW??

    I would assume that James Breen won't run the next time around, he'll be well in his 60s this year I'd imagine.

    I seem to remember FG running 4 candidates last time around, they got 2 in, but it split their vote a lot and almost allowed James B. in, I would imagine that they will run a lot smarter campaign and run their 2 sitting TDs with perhaps 1 more, Madeline Taylor Quinn polled very strongly in the European elections I seem to remember.

    My guess for the next time around would be for Dr. Hillary to top the poll, mainly because of the FF support in the county along with the nostalgia effect his name will carry. Pat Breen seems popular, he may come second in the poll, I would imagine it would be between him and Timmy Dooley for the second spot. The forth spot I would imagine will go to Joe Carey. So 2 FF and 2 FG.

    Saying all of the above, Clare does have a history of throwing up some strange results, James Breen & Bhamjee, so I would be surprised if Michael Mac for Labour could come in, that would depend on the East Clare vote I would imagine that would be split between him and Dooley and he will rely on a lot of transfers and Dooley getting in early, although that could be the other way around for the 2 of them though

    God I hate Taylor Quinn - Years ago when I was a teen I remember Garret Fitzgerald coming to town - back then nothing of note ever happend in Ennis and the likes of the Taoiseach coming to visit would be today's equivalent of Mohammed Ali's visit.

    I remember getting to shake his hand and yer wan beside him shoved me out of the way I fell off the steps of the height and scraped my poor knee:mad:

    So remember!! Yesterday's annyoing child is today's voter:D

    Could you also take out the SF option since they're not running a candidate here?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 533 ✭✭✭Claregirl


    Forgive a stupid question but are there any candidates from the Ennis area?

    I know Joe Carey is from Clarecastle but that doesn't count;)

    If James Breen runs he will be the nearest to an Ennis candidate you'll get. He is currently a member of Clare County Council, he stood in Ennis West in that election.

    Well I suppose we all know by now theres no SF candidate.

    I really wanted to meet Mc Namara as I know nothing about him really. He called to our estate yesterday and just threw a leaflet in the door! No knock..They literally ran around and were gone by the time I looked out (within 2 minutes). Not a good sign me thinks. :(

    chucken1 - Was he physically in your estate? or was it just his people doing a leaflet drop. I notice that some candidates are just doing leaflet drops but are appearing in estates themselves.

    I dont know if he was actually with them! Men in coats..it was raining :o.

    Do you mean they might call properly soon??

    Yes, we received a leaflet drop and within the week the candidate called in person. You could always email Michael McNamara. I have attached a link. Must admit I'm not usually a labour voter but I like the look of him on paper, he does seem to have a brain. Like you I would like to know about him too. I reckon Clare FM and Champion are bound to do profiles on each of the candidates in the near future.

    Clare FM's Morning Focus programme held an election debate amongst the Clare candidates last week. Here is the link

    I've deliberately stayed away from Boards for the last 10 days because I needed to!! Talk about being overwhelmed..
    Ta MrsD007 for the link..but I didnt listen..yet..I will though.

    I've had ONE candidate at my door..ONE! Oh loads of c*ap posted at your and mine expense(well not mine cos Im on social welfare..therefore a scurge, according to lots of posters on Boards.ie)

    Anyway..when I just thought I'll vote for the best of a seriously bad lot..Last night I got the most disgusting leaflet through the door!

    I wont say anything..but has anyone got Mr Mc Cabes leaflet?..

    To say Im horrified is a bluudy understatement.

    I'll refer to sentence 5 on his "race" point..or the whole lot of it. :mad:

    It was actually here in Clare I wrote about it, here's my thoughts on the topic (Link to post):
    CiaranMT wrote:

    By including these areas in the Limerick city area (along with Raheen, Castletroy etc) the authority will be able to better coordinate and manage planning. I mean, look at the absolute mess that's been made of the Corbally area, it's an absolute joke to try and get through during rush hour. Same with the Limerick County areas. Limerick is just hard to get through, and this needs to change in order for it to develop.

    Here I was talking about the thousands of residents who live in Shannon Banks, Westbury etc, who are in Clare atm. Road and infrastructure planning would be better co-ordinated under a single authority, to better suit the needs of these residents who spend large parts of their time in Limerick.
    It is a long term, rather than a quick fix, element to the development of the city. If you have one authority, rather than 3, you won't find that this sort of attitude exists, where everyone's pulling in their own direction; Clare Co. Co. their way, Limerick Ci. Co. another way, and Limerick Co. Co. another way again. There's no cohesion at the minute, which is one of the causes of the doughnut ring we see forming around the city centre.

    One authority, and one focus on how to improve the city is what's needed. A major part of this is the growing of business. The whole of the Mid West will benefit, not just the city of Limerick.

    Basically, the focus should be on the greater Mid-West region.

    We have to move away from this 'Get away from our land, 'tis Clare!' mentality.

    Being officially part of Limerick will mean increased home and car insurance premiums, there is a price to be paid for every thing. The other thing is that a lot of Limerick people spend a good part of their day in Shannon so following your argument, we should be getting ready for the great Shannon giveaway very shortly :D

    That due to the higher crime rate I'm guessing? I don't see how changing the address from Clare to Limerick on your policy (if you're living in Westbury/Shannon Banks) would affect insurance. Or maybe you mean something else? I'm sorry, it's just your point isn't all that clear.

    You can't deny the point that a huge amount of people come in from SE Clare to work, shop and do business in the city. Making this easier and more attractive for these people is important for Clare and the Mid-West in general.

    This might seem over simplistic to you Ciaran MT but if you have two children and your neighbour has eight. I'd imagine you wouldn't be too keen to give over a large portion of your back garden because your neighbour is over populated :)

    I note your O'Briens Bridge address, a lovely part of the world. I enjoyed many a meal in the Old Mill before it closed down, but how would you feel if the Mount Pellier boys annexed O'Briensbridge and your kids ended up playing for Limerick???

    I don't see the point of this question. O' Briensbridge isn't Westbury. It has a far lower population density and far less traffic.

    However, IF the roles were reversed and I lived in Westbury/Shannon Banks, I'd have no problem with the boundary extension in this case either. I'd prefer to live in an area with one authority making decisions that best suits the sizeable population of the area, rather than two or three.

    I'd still be a Clareman too. An imaginary line in the ground won't change that.

    Like I said to chucken above.

    This all seems to be a very tribal GAA thing, on the side of people who oppose the extension.
