Another General election?

Bobtheman · 2020-05-03 16:53:38

I can't see the Vegetables/Green going into power. The SDP seems to have disappeared.That leaves FG/FF relying on independents. Not viable in my view. I can see a second general election. It would offer some amusement?! In such an outcome I would see the Greens slaughtered.FG would gain seats . Beyond that not so sure

Can't see an election with Covid-19, social distancing, cocooning etc. Not in the next few months anyway

What difference would a general election make to the numbers now? Maybe when the dire economic fallout of COVID19 kicks in next year we will witness a change in Irish politics so profound you will barely recognise the country anymore. There will be an apocalyptic change in World politics post virus.

I just can't see the Greens doing a deal. That poses a major problem. More reports of unease in the green party this morning. Their deputy leader voted against talks with FG .
