I can solve the nurse/dr/teacher problem.

Make them work here for 2 years before they get their practising certs to move on. That way we always have new drs/nurses/teachers coming into the system - their 3rd level education is subsidised here so let them work in the system that supported them.

Leo rattled.

Good point by Leo. Marylou wants extra consultants but wants to tax them at 57%

MM health answer much stronger than Leo's . Treatment purchase fund is hugely effective to be fair and will immediately help waiting lists.

Must cost a fortune though.

Reminds me of schools renting prefab classrooms for 30 years instead of building a new school.

Yes but if you have 100,000 people getting medical care they need who cares what it costs

They have pushed austerity up here, whilst being populist in Ireland and promising everything to everyone.

I'm no fan of theirs but that's the craic. They're like Tesco with their separate divisions in ROI and UK.

Yes, but Tesco don't claim to be the one company across the two countries. They legally are different and differentiate themselves as Tesco and Tesco Ireland.

SF do the opposite

talking about the HSE is utterly pointless

Leo is clearly, clearly stumbling/faltering here trying to get a dig in about the North.

McDonald in fairness to her stayed calm, let him go off on his incomprehensible rant, and calmly reminded him that the purse strings to the north are held by the UK govt, and challenged him to make sure take it up with the UK govt.

This is one of the worst posts I've seen in awhile.

A lot of people dont want to believe it. Close 15 hospitals. Divert resources to the half dozen that are worthwhile. Health service improved. But, the people of Ballinasloe, Nenagh, Roscommon, etc wont hear of it, even though it is harmful to their health to keep them open. It is the single reason why no progress has been made in decades of this Angola.

Mary Lou handling Davin Power like a boss. RTE and their thinly disguised bias, trying to stitch up the "undesirables".

He has a permanent nervous or unsure expression. Unfortunate for a politician.

They want change ….it happens to be SF.

I personally don't see it happen when push comes to shove this weekend. Plus they can't get the numbers to avoid going into coalition with one of the other two, which both claim they won't.

Mary Lou could just sit back and let these two mock each other all night.
