Michael Martin dead man walking

Master Anorak

Exactly 90 days from today, he steps down as Taoiseach and at 901 days in office, will hold the record of been the shortest serving Taoiseach ever.

Is there a question here?

Garret Fitzgeralds first tenure as Taoiseach lasted 252 days.

Or do you mean short in height ?

Are they going to kill him on his last day? Leo got out of the revolving door alive.

I think he is doing a great job.

Who is Michael Martin?

Micheál Martin is one of the great survivors around the FF top table. He hasn't stayed that long without having his wits about him. I'd reckon he'll only bow out of the limelight when he's good & ready. Leaving aside he was part of that government that oversaw the wreckage of our economy in the 2000s, he's a capable and sensible pair of hands.

No I don't think he will lose his seat.

We can't hold him responsible for the stagnancy of Irish politics. Although he made a gaff when he said there was no banking bailout.

I think people generally feel (unless they are the extreme end of either spectrum) that he is a nice person but a terrible leader.

What has he ever done? Like....ever?

Ya the public are a fickle thing, they don’t want politicians to lie except for the lies they want to believe. They believe that somewhere out there there must be at least one bank shareholder who did not loss their investment, but received all this government money. The biggest bailouts in European banking history, without a single shareholder received a cent.

"Making millions"? That total crap. I don't support his party, but there seems that for some people .the worst crime a politician can commit is to get elected.

It nonsense like this that gets people like Trump elected.
