    my 67 year old grandad picked me up from work today and told me he'd voted for Peter Casey, not cause he'd wanted to see him as president, simply just to stand up and let them know what we truly think of the 'cream crackers'... his words

    Nope.
    2% was the last poll number that I saw on RTE for Peter Casey.

    RTE is the most biased anti-worker liberal media outlet in the country.

    I believe their disdain for the tax payer is due to our vocal opposition to any license fee increase to pay for their exorbitant salary increases. Watch the faces of RTE commentators/reporters on television when they mention "the so-called squeezed middle class" (as RTE like to describe us). They can hardly contain their scorn for us. They do a good job not calling us the "proletariat" instead.

    If a new party is formed as a result of voter dissatisfaction with the current left/ultra-liberal contingent of politicians, then a mandate for that party should be either the complete removal of the television license or a drastic reduction. Let see if the RTE liberal aristocracy survive. They might even have to get real jobs like the rest of us.

    Anybody who doesn't agree that they are Irish by definition does not want them to be treated equally. They want to set them up as a minority, and it suits them being in the position that they are in because otherwise they wouldn't have a minority to champion.

    The traveling community have worse social protection, and are simultaneously free to behave however they want because the government is afraid of ne'er do wells like yourself attacking any effort to make them equal. We saw it in this campaign. The so-called 'left' want the status quo to be maintained.

    Leaders within their own community are also more than happy with maintaining the status quo, for otherwise their claim to fame would suddenly vanish.

    No denying it. You're right, they are treated differently.

    Stuff like contributing to society and tax and the auld social claims and all that carry on.

    Nobody disputed that the're "not treated equally".

    I think that's the actual problem. They ARE treated differently.

    Just been down to vote, and it's a number 1 for Peter Casey from me.

    Sick of the liberal lefties bending over backwards for people who contribute nothing to society. Rte and the Irish Times no longer represent the views of a majority of hard-working people.

    Honestly i wish people were only concerned with the gangs. But people are tarring all travelers with the same brush. It's wrong a lot of them live in squalor, and caseys bs is wrong and gutter politics

    Very annoying that there wasn't a poll carried out last week. It's as if they didn't want Casey supporters to know he was rising.

    Next referendum should be one on ending the TV license, and in the process letting RTE sink. I think I know what the result would be!

    They've run out of referendums, aka distractions for the public.

    The government and opposition know they are neck deep in **** once the majority of people are allowed scrutinise their b*ll****.

    Its in the post, and they know it.

    Do Travellers and Life Dole people vote?

    Maybe they do, but why would they bother? Everything is handed to them anyway.

    Ireland and AH was a bit more lefty back then I reckon. I actually voted for McGuinness back then, but am disgusted by Sinn Fein these days. Interesting to see how they will react if they have a terrible result.

    Voting numbers were down in such areas and the numbers were much healthier in areas like D4. Heard that one the radio earlier today.

    I agree that anyone should be able to defend their home, just like Padraig Nally, but against any thief, not just the gangs you speak of but any thief, junkies are the real danger
