    Spent force but the public in this country are going to vote him in

    How many times was Mary Lou asked about the Special Criminal Court. She refused to answer each and every time

    We can all draw our own conclusions and that is why SF/IRA cannot be trusted anywhere near power in this country ever

    Excuse my ignorance but what is the point of Sein Fein involved in this debate? Neither FG or FF will go into government with them, whereas even if every candidate SF have gets elected they would news every single non FF and non FG candidate to even attempt to make a majority.

    Dont believe a word of it.

    FF/SF coalition is the bookies favourite.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,614 ✭✭✭Quantum Erasure


    I live in Tipp - if FF or FG are short 2/3 seats for a majority, guess where they’ll be spending the next 4 weeks - we’ll all have keys to our own houses by the end of the month!

    being challenged, it'll probably go ahead on saturday

    Has David been smoking, or does he always ogle Miriam like that? Spooky.

    In fairness Miriam doing an alright job at shutting down the bull****!

    Every single time MLM tried to have a go at LV or MM Miriam has butted in and took the sting out of it. This is pure deliberate.

    There is no victimisation here only in SF supporters heads.

    These old tired arguments being put to MLM are really showing the desperation from the two lads.

    Something about it may be held Saturday, Attorney General involved.
    All seats have to be filled within 30 days of DAil dissolution, ongoing

    What the **** has NI got to do with this?

    Moderators should have shut that down there. Completely irrelevant.

    its the only indication we have of how SF would behave in government, no?

    Nothing but the the money isn’t solely held by London either. The assembly have the scope to fix the problem if it exists outside of London’s

    MM constantly giving out about being interrupted and looking to the hosts to shut them up for him looks so bloody weak. Grow a pair and shut them up yourself. I might give them a vote if he did that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,426 ✭✭✭✭leahyl


    Varadkar getting giddy knowing he is ahead......this is when he usually loses it and says something stupid....

    He needs an ad break soon.

    Lol, MM gets very flustered when he is interrupted too - only when it’s MLM though strangely enough

    No doubt your right

    RTE and Indo and Times doing as much for MLM, as was done by the media for Brexit and Trump.
    SF using it to their advantage.

    Oh yeah, and she was probably better off never having getting an invite, easily could play it to their advantage. But appearing in the debate, based on the latest polls, can only i believe have them drop in popularity.

    SF are in government there, it's the same political party north & south. LV was asking about their track record of dealing with homeless there. SF would implemented the same policies/ political approach here.

    They're all depressingly ****e and uninspiring people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,365 ✭✭✭✭McMurphy


    Leo is clearly, clearly stumbling/faltering here trying to get a dig in about the North.

    McDonald in fairness to her stayed calm, let him go off on his incomprehensible rant, and calmly reminded him that the purse strings to the north are held by the UK govt, and challenged him to make sure take it up with the UK govt. :D

    Marylou avoiding talking about policy or defending her parties stance on issues.

    Martin and Varadkar are asking questions and raising points against SF policy but Marylou won't give an answer....

    I wasn’t the only one who was looking at him wondering had he had a sneaky quart while Miriam was asking the questions.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,732 ✭✭✭BarryD2


    Miriam O'C is useless at these type of interviews now - lost the edge to ask the hard questions and pin people down. She should just stick to the softy softly stuff she does on Sunday mornings.........

    Still you have to admit MLM is typical SF when it comes to giving straight answers. Not electing Pearse Doherty as leader is going to cost them yet again.

    Loved the look David gave at the end of the last part.

    SF, as they often tell us, are an all Ireland party, their policies are their policies. So it's completely relevant giving they make up the government there, when they all haven't taken a record breaking break from it.
