Nothing will change, nothing will be done - a new bunch of ****heads doing the same **** that’s been done since the inception of the state. There isn’t a single party with the balls to do what needs to be done.

McMurphy wrote: » neither [FF or FG] are proposing to cap or reduce these measures, SF don't have any plans either, but it's all SFs fault regardless. You sir, can get up the yard.
McMurphy wrote: » Oh dear. So, despite the welfare recipients receiving what they receive due to ffg introduced measures, it's SF who is catering for them? You're talking through your hoop, and it appears you aren't too impressed on being pulled up on it either. The yard beckons. Get up it.
RandomName2 wrote: » Well this is a slightly amusing one. Blaze says "There is none " but McMurphy, the investigative journalist wants to get to the bottom of it. Blaze responds that there is no party calling for an end to welfare increases. Unperturbed by Blaze still not making himself clear, McMurphy goes in for the kill Having scored a resounding success McMurphy gets congratulated by davycc, FrancieBrady, Matt Barrett, who are all well known for the high quality of their arguments. Unfortunately for Blaze he just starts to dig himself deeper and says that his argument is that the volume of social welfare is too high, and that SF has a widely known policy of seeking to increase social welfare. McMurphy shows no mercy It is worth pointing out that not only does McMurphy take Blaze to task for pointing out SF policy, he also coins the term FFG (which I'll explain for the slightly slower readers, is in relation to both Fianna Fail and Fine Gael). This sort of oratory cannot be taught, it is born.

Blaze420 wrote: » Maybe we should but there is no realistic alternative - I view SF as being the local witch doctor while FF/FG unfortunately are the qualified GP. Why take the risk just for a change?(which will very likely be for the worst)
Blaze420 wrote: » Why do you think we had the recent headline of “increase in children being born in to homelessness”? Why do you think someone living in a hotel would willingly become pregnant in such circumstances when any logical person would ****ing wait until they had a secure environment? No empathy needed, just a brain and eyes and the ability to see a ****ing chancer for what they are. Because every additional kid bumps you a few steps up the ladder to the free house of your dreams (and a house that ****ing mugs like me can only dream of being in anytime in the next 5 years).

Sorry, it's a bit heavy, but I thought I'd bring it along. I brought you a mirror, not sure if you are going to use it, but I'll leave it here. Edit: posted after the bolded mod post You could describe almost every western government as a power swap cartel. The only difference in Ireland is that FF and FG don't follow a normal left-right pattern.

It's very cult like behaviour, and as I am familiar with their personal circumstances, it's clear that there the ones who wine be finding through their tax all the goodies that SF are promising.
