Euro debate Yuesday night

WishUWereHere

Anyone any views after seeing our prospective 'candidates'?

Personally, I was going to give my #1 to Casey, but after the debate I got completely turned off him with his insitance of interrupting was very off putting. And cue Smith, when Casey 'backed off' Smith jumps on the podium.

In truth, none of them gave me much inspiration.

Edit: Mods, please can You change Yuesday to Tuesday. My apologies, but I can't for some reason.

daheff

cant say im going to bother voting this time around. Constituency is far to big geographically. Most likely it'll be 3 from out west that will win, meaning kildare will effectively be unrepresented.

soenow what

Casey has no idea what he's talking about. ever. either that or he's very bad at putting his point across.
Ming and Maria Walsh came across well, Mairead McGuinness dominated whenever she was involved,
can't really remember any other candidates,

I've no idea who to vote for locally our Europe wise.

L1011

Worth looking at the potential candidates for commission president, deciding if you prefer any of them, and then voting for the member party here of their party. MEPs can do bog all about local or even national issues so going on actual European issues makes sense.

https://europeelects.eu/2019spitzenkandidaten/

Weber - FG (and Casey has said he'd sit with them)
Timmermans - Labour
ALDEs 7 person list - FF
Greens 2 person list - Greens
European Left 2 person list - SF and Ming

Zahradil - nobody here
Junqueras - nobody here

I won't be voting FFG, labour, SF, greens or aontu so that doesn't leave me much eh? Guess it's Ming all the way so.

Thanks for this L1011

McGuinness is from Louth, Brendan Smith is from Cavan and Carthy is from Monaghan though. if anything there could be too many easterners

Greens all the way for me in everything. There's no other party.
