    THE VERDICT

    You are a hardcore Fine Gael supporter.

    But....but....aw, I thought I was cool. :(

    'You are compatible with Fine Gael. You are also close to Sinn Féin'

    :eek::eek::eek:

    Oh NOOOOOOOIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

    Very strange as I'm not voting for either. :cool:

    Harcore Labour apparently.

    But, I took another quiz and came out as 57% Fine Gael.


    Could be worse, if I'd come out as FF, SF or Green, I would barely deserve to live.

    Labour on top with 9 points.

    Fianna Fail bottom with -10.

    Sounds about right.

    Vote Quimby

    Without a Mayor Quimby, our town would really stink.
    we wouldn't have a tire yard or an inside roller ring.
    we wouldn't have our gallows, or a shiny big foot trap.
    its not the Mayor's fault that the stadium collapsed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    You are compatible with Sinn Féin. You are also close to the Labour Party.

    No way in hell I'd vote for Sinn Féin. On the positive side, I got -15 for Fianna Fáil


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,642 ✭✭✭cml387


    Spot on for me.

    Only topics missing were disenfranchisement of the poor and re-integration into the United Kingdom.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,408 ✭✭✭Captain_Generic


    Labour 21, FF -16.

    Sounds about right, but Adams was breathing down my neck with 14

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,014 ✭✭✭Monife


    Labour 7 Green Party 7 (<-- how did that one happen)

    Fianna Fail -7 thought it would have been more...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 692 ✭✭✭i-digress


    Compatible with Labour, also close to Sinn Fein....

    In the minus figures with every other party.

    Policy wise I'm a leftie, so it's bang on (even though I'm anti the Croke Park agreement) but I don't think I can bring myself to vote SF.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,794 ✭✭✭chillywilly


    Labour 20
    Sinn Fein 11
    Fine Gael 9
    Green 0
    Fianna Fail minus 13 :D

    It doesn't sound far off to be honest. Although I am unsure of voting for Labour or not, it does apparently show that I agree with some of their policies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,544 ✭✭✭Hogzy


    FF 0
    FG 17
    Lab 10
    GP 5
    SF -8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,314 ✭✭✭Marcus.Aurelius


    +12 Fine Gael

    I guess it's close enough. :pac:

    You are hard to please, but you are closest to Fine Gael.

    Pretty spot on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,815 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush


    Results...You are hopelessly torn between Fine Gael and the Labour Party.

    Well, if it was FF or the Greens, i would have had to shoot myself....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,078 ✭✭✭questionmark?


    That things a bit ahhh questionable at least it got the FF figure right on minus 14 :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,272 ✭✭✭EverEvolving


    You are hard to please, but you are closest to the Labour Party.

    Labour 11
    SF 10
    FF -16
    FG -7
    Greens 0

    Didn't think I would be so closly matched with SF but Labour is about right.

    I like quizes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,815 ✭✭✭✭galwayrush


    That things a bit ahhh questionable at least it got the FF figure right on minus 14 :D

    I only got -13 on FF, i am almost traumatised it wasn't more negative,,:D

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,783 ✭✭✭Hank_Jones


    Fine Gael +12

    Labour + 10

    Fianna Fail -12

    Sounds about right.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 856 ✭✭✭Carl Sagan


    Highest was Labour followed closely by Sinn Fein.


    Fianna Fail was way down the bottom.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,573 ✭✭✭pajor


    Could be worse
    16 Labour :)
    17 SF
    1 Green
    -11 FG

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 866 ✭✭✭RussellTuring


    I'm a hardcore Sinn Féin supporter, apparently. Not that surprised since they're the leftiest of the bunch.

    FF: -14
    FG: -15
    Labour: 14
    Green: 6
    Sinn Féin: 24 (:eek:)

    Glad to see I'm so far removed from the Civil War parties but I already knew that.

    The government should renegotiate Ireland's debt repayments.

    FF / FG's debt, not Ireland's thank you very much!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,118 ✭✭✭AnnyHallsal


    You are compatible with the Labour Party.

    You are also close to Sinn Féin :eek:

    -14 FF :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 635 ✭✭✭grrrrrrrrrr


    You are compatible with the Taliban..

    Could be worse I guess, could be SF. Same thing I guess

    What did they do to prevent it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,241 ✭✭✭Sanjuro


    I'm sure there's a method to it, but it's not fool-proof. I intend voting independent. It told me I should vote Fine Gael. I told it to fuck off.

    They are supporting the bail-out fraud, have been since the start of this mess. They aren't part of the solution etc...
    Irish Government has adopted economically, financially and ethically unjustifiable position that the Irish banks must be protected from the prospect of failing at any cost, including the cost of a wholesale destruction of the real economy through diversion of scarce resource to propping up banks balance sheet

    Recommended independent candidates FTW

    Well that's not true really. Labour opposed it from the start. Sinn Fein changed tack after the first round of guarantees were voted upon etc.

    Sorry, i was thinking more along the lines of who caused the reason for it to come about in the first place. ......;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,704 ✭✭✭squod


    The banks and probably speculators who borrowed cheap money to gamble on the derivatives markets.

    "You are hopelessly torn between the Labour Party and Sinn Féin"

    Sinn Fein? I don't think so.

    Labour: 23
    Sinn Fein: 23
    Green Party: 0
    Fine Gael: -2
    Fianna Fail: -14


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 866 ✭✭✭RussellTuring


    What's with all the negativity towards Sinn Féin? You can dislike their history all you want but don't deny the fact that you agree with them on their current policies. And no, I'm not a Shinner.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,290 ✭✭✭mickydoomsux

    They are murdering scum who's election policy is to pander to morons.

    Came out with Labour for me which is how i was planning on voting.

    I know exactly what their history is. I mean some people are in disbelief about the fact that they actually agree with their policies. I'm not saying to vote for thm because of a silly quiz like that, but don't deny reality. And all well and good for you but if it had come out with SF would you act like it was wrong, while accepting it had it been anyone else?

    For me, I might be ideologically oriented towards some SF economic policies in principle. In practice, I cannot vote for them because I believe that, of all the parties, their figures make least sense.

    Thank you! I'm not asking anyone to vote for them (I won't). I would just like people to admit that they agree with them on certain issues despite their history and credibilty.
