    Zappone - as someone operating a childcare business this one woman f*** up should be booted so far away from any future political involvement that she can never have any influence ever again

    As a parent with 1 child in childcare and another on the way i couldn't agree more, she is an absolute waste of space and her literal only tangible achievement in government, the ecce scheme, is a piece of rotting hot garbage that comes nowhere near to helping parents in any real way with the insane costs of childcare and from what ive heard from childcare workers is it basically negates any benefit due to the cost of the work hours required to maintain the paperwork and bureaucracy of it

    Think James Reilly brought in the ECCE scheme and she brought in the disaster that is the CCSP scheme and now the NCS scheme. FRom our point of view she lumped excessive administrative work onto the creches & pre schools but I do think the reductions that parents get in payments through the scheme are an insult. If your paying over €1000 a month for creche fees €80 a month reduction is a spit in the eye

    Harris
    Flanagan

    My two cents means nothing though. Their loyal base could return them comfortably. Parish pump politics thriving like a weed.

    I'd love smug Stephen Donnelly to lose in my constituency. Turn coat, technocrat, egg headed and arrogant.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 89 ✭✭mayopanda84


    Paul Murphy
    Shane Ross
    Boyd Barrett


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,184 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    Quite a few of those I'd be quite happy to see on their arse aren't even running again

    Ross. More so than anyone else, and this could actually happen too.

    Any of the gombeens - Mattie, both Healey Raes, Lowry in particular - but I'm aware this isn't going to happen!

    Paul Murphy - also a decent chance this could happen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 89 ✭✭mayopanda84


    yeah i think a few of them know there game is up and arent wasting time running this time around


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,348 ✭✭✭PropJoe10


    Shane Ross. A truly unlikeable individual.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,646 ✭✭✭washman3


    An easier question to ask would be : 'who would you like to retain their seat'


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 50 ✭✭Breakerz


    Charlie Flanagan
    Leo
    Eoghan Murphy
    Ross
    Harris
    Madigan
    Martin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 589 ✭✭✭ddarcy


    Zappone
    Mary Mitchel O’Connor
    Simon Harris
    Eoghan Murphy
    Regina Doherty

    All are a waste of space, but my top 5 anyways. Unfortunately I can only see Zappone losing though.

    It always is a cause of wonder for me that people think a minority coalition partner or independent can demand whatever they want and get it. It's not realistic that one independent would transform Child Support nor do you suggest how she convinces the majority coalition partner Fine Gael to significantly raise middle class taxes to pay for this.

    As an aside one persons excessive administrative work is another persons scandal of "why didn't they check that".

    I'd hate to see Amadan O'Riordan regain his seat as well

    Hopefully he fails

    Zappone - with her poor children from Calais
    Mary Mitchel O’Connor - shove her imaginary her pay gap and jobs for the girls only where the sun don't shine
    Stephen Donnelly - being disingeniuous fecker who couldn't wait to join ff
    Coveney - fook off and get a job with the missus's uncle and make it official
    O'Dea - one of berties shysters
    Martin - another of berties boys with "money just resting in my account"
    Ross - just enforce existing laws and stop dreaming up new unnecessary ones
    Ferris - garda murdering apologist
    Danny Healy Rae - read a scientific journal and stop embarrassing all Kerry people, Ferris and your brother are enough.
    Eamon Ryan - any fooker that thinks wolves are a runner deserves to be chased out of office by one
    Copppinger and the rest of the leftie ar** like Murphy and Boyd Barrett.

    I am not allowed discuss …

    Charlie Flanagan would be top of my list as he clearly has no handle on his job as Minister for Justice.

    Can’t stand her either. She’s your typical Academic politically correct ivory tower nanny state promoting pain in the hole. No , I don’t think some foreigner should swan into the Irish Parliament and lecture us on migration. Sooner she’s gone the better and definitely one of the pluses of the ending of this Dáil session is that she can do no more hopefully and won’t be near power again
