robman60 wrote: » It's a worldwide thing. Australia last week, Brexit, Trump, all show that there is something around a 4% swing (so maybe 2% of people) who lie because they don't admit it when polled. It consistently underestimates what is seen as the politically incorrect thing to do. I think all it shows as a general point is the media should stop pontificating to voters. I think Casey has nothing to offer as a candidate, but I remember Fintan O'Toole saying the day after the presidential that this was the far right getting a foothold in Ireland. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

It's amusing listening to the huffs and tears of impotent rage from some people on here..When you can't affect the outcome you try to denigrate the candidate AND their supporters but nobody cares about your pinko feelings being hurt..as you should really know by now.

I don't like most of the travellers I have met. If that makes me racist, then so be it. I'll wear that badge with pride, and when travellers start getting their act together, I'll revise my opinion. In the meantime, I voted Casey no. 1. I don't particularly care if he gets in or not, and if he does, I don't really see him making much of a difference, but I agree with a minority of his views (albeit almost strictly limited to the traveller viewpoint) and I'd like to see him encouraged on that.
