    Was it reported ? I hadn’t heard that reported so was surprised to hear that number quoted.

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

    Completely different systems, different politics, even a different culture if you will. SF are a different party on each side of the border in reality.

    And the 20k figure was reported on only a couple of weeks ago. Why is she so confident it can be dismissed.

    The same figure was quoted in 2016 and it is bullsh1t Comparison due to a different way of measuring homelessness

    There is no question Doherty should be leader, very capable politician.

    Capable of what? Is he not supporting the stupid policies such as reducing the pension age?

    Health? If the other two can't absolutely nail Varadkar on this, they might as well give up on everything.

    not one voter believes either SF or FF can fix the HSE though so its not the knockout blow it should be

    No clear winner so far, or likely to emerge for that matter.
