    Who “won” in your opinion?

    I'd have to hand it to Martin. I know many will disagree with that, but it's really a two horse race in reality and the alternative is a slick, polished spoofer who has done nothing for the "people who get up early" despite a "booming economy", and has actually made many things worse.

    It's not nice, but it's what it is imo

    Every time I look at Howlin next to Martin, I can't help but get a vision of the Denis Waterman sketches from little Britain out of my head.

    If you want to not be able to afford to heat your house or drive a car and be taxed to the max on everything vote for the Green party.

    Five years Micheal? I'd give it five months if the polling figures play out at the ballot box!

    So many promises Leo but while you were at the wheel the last few years you couldn't run a pissup in a brewery.

    Useless. But I don’t need to even give the opportunity to the other morons to know there works have been some of the same and some different crisis...

    I think Éamonn Ryan doesn't deserve the hate.

    Big fan of his. Think the Greens will gain some seats this time around and may get a seat in my constituency

    Honest, clear and consistent with his policies. Definitely the one I'd trust the most

    Shocking the Mary Lou is going with reducing the pension age.
    Nuts idea.

    Howlin comfortably last in the debate, Shortall OK when she did speak, but quietness overall leaves her second-bottom. Varadkar probably ahead overall, followed by Boyd-Barrett, Martin, Mary Lou and Ryan.

    Also water meter rollout under an SF Minister there, amongst other do-as-we-say-not-as-we-do stuff when crossing the border.

    Fair play to RTE, a great debate tonight. One thing they they can never be faulted on is their current affairs output.
