    Every single time MLMcD has spoken, somebody (Usually Mariam) has interrupted her.

    Get the original plans out for the Ballymun Flats and build them somewhere else again with proper facilities around them.

    IRA card being played.

    Its still the core part of the SF ethos. She has to play it.

    Why not bring in tax breaks for the private sector like they did in the past for building houses and let people either rent or sell , public housing estates only lead to bad areas !

    The house building promise of Sinn Fein is so preposterous. Does anyone actually take it seriously?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,591 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    Not really answering the question there Mary Lou. All about aspiration but offering no credible realistic solution.

    Miriam is not politically clean enough to be a moderator for a debate. RTE seem to think that just keeping her directly away from her brother is enough.

    Doing Byrne Round 2 would have been a much better idea; its not the same debate as before due to the tighter lineup

    Well her brother is a FF TD so whether she has an agenda or not, the perception is there.

    She just rambled on there for 2-3 mins. She is getting as much time to talk as the other two.

    Maybe if she answered the question being asked instead of going off on tangents, she might not get interrupted and called to task.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,211 ✭✭✭✭Suckit


    Taking bets....

    The next time Mary Lou speaks, Miriam will interrupt again.

    Or one of the others.

    1/5 Miriam
    1/4 Leo
    1/3 Michael

    Her brother is in FF.shouldn't be anywhere near this debate.

    They're all being interrupted when dodging or rambling away from the point.

    Actually agree with MM on reducing levies and his point on FG hoping that the free market would sort out the housing crisis. Shame he's about as credible as the monorail guy from the Simpsons.

    A shortage of workers, simply bring in 5000 builders from Turkey on special visas to assist in the shortage.
