    FF will shed its current skin and slitter on.

    I don't think though it will be as easy to forget what happened. Remember how almost two years ago a lot more people were saying "going forward" yet the events of almost three years ago keep coming back. There's a lot of unresolved issues that won't go away and this time people's anger will start turn to where it should have been then rather than the Private versus Public sector war that the government had everyone dancing to keep the attention off their corruption.

    I'm trying to understand why you would dismiss the opinion of anyone who complains they were forced by economic necessity to emigrate. Are you tired of hearing bad news?

    (By the way, that's question so don't say it's me putting words in your mouth. You have no problem providing words yourself, I'm just trying to understand why you think what you do).
    You were presuming and incorrectly so.

    As I said, its a choice to move.
    No-one is being sent away when the economy dives no more than they are forced to stick around when it soars. This is the driving factor in labour mobility.
    Use of the word "refugee" is OTT, misleading and misguided.
    I also believe there are not only two choices (dole v emigration) as I have described earlier.

    Thats my opinion based on my own experience, my family's and of others.
    I disagree on the interpretation of the migration (particularly yours). Its that simple.
    This isn't making excuses for any govt either.

    Good topic. You need to remember it is only the older generation or the terminally stupid who would vote for FF at this stage. This generation that they have ruined with debt and forced emigration will never forget what this party of spineless, incompetent wasters have done to them. FF won't have the chance to mount any charm offensive in opposition because they will be annihilated in the election, and won't even get enough seats to become anything more than hecklers and shouters in the dail.

    I think they are finished as a party in this country and rightly so. They represent everything that is rotten and corrupt in this nation and they will be very lucky if they see any sort of backing for government within the next 60 years. If I had my way they'd all be lined up for a firing squad for treason, but we'll just have do with watching them slowly lurch towards the furnace waiting for them come election time.
