    And nobody in the SF ranks could be considered posh? Not least Mary Lou with her private schooling and Trinity education?!

    SF messaging is spot on to be fair. Them, with the people vs the elite/establishment - it's worked in many places over the last few years.

    Just stoke the anger and ride the wave

    I'm thinking they're just spoiled. Booming economy, rising wages and full employment not good enough for ye? Want to return to the days of emigration is it?

    As well as ignorant of a party where members stand up and applause a man known to have murdered a Guard.

    Yeah I mean who cares if you can't afford to live sure the landlord class are enjoying a boom

    The people renting out homes at record highs. Which includes companies and the likes of FG who have followed a policy of pumping billions into renting houses and hotels instead of building and owning them

    The likes of your one on Joe Duffy during the week who has 38 properties who didn't want to see rent freezes.

    The likes of someone who owns 38 properties, and rents them out could probably be described as belonging to a landlord class.

    How much does it cost to manage 38 properties?

    This too shall pass.

    Hard to say depends on the type of property, location. tenants etc. etc.
    It's a kind of piece of string thing, no one size fits all answer.

    There should be economies of scale over a landlord with 1 or 2 properties.

    My memory of that woman was that she had 38 tenants which might mean a much lower number of properties.

    This, where members, supporters etc. laud, enthuse, worship and pay homage to murderers, murderers of members of the Gardai.

    What happens as can happen as part of democracy, we end up on the loosing side of a vote in Europe ? A European politician on the opposite side of an argument gets bundled into the back of a car, taken to a cliff, shot and their body dumped ? Fûck right off, you’d want to be operating with about 6% of your mind to be wanting to vote for these clowns, anti democratic and divorced from reality as well as the public mood and feeling.

    Considering it didn't happen when FF drove the country over a cliff I hardly think your hysterical scenario will occur now.

    The numbers are there.

    Why are FF and FG been blamed when the numbers are there for a left government??

    The reason they can't persuade the left to form a government with them are obvious, they aren't trusted, even by their own.

    That and of course the fact that 66 is less than 80. In fact now that I think about it the fact 66 is less than 80 might be the most important fact

    So it's not just FF and FG that don't trust SF.

    I thought the new directive from FG HQ was to focus on SF finances so that they can slither into power with FF? :)

    How can some people think SF can just rock up take just 23 seats and announce Mary Lou is Taoiseach end off.


    People that think that are likely too young to vote I'd say.


    They're the ones who think 25% is a pass grade. The education system has been dumbed down in the past 20 years.

    Blanch I once told you that you were prehaps the most disingenuous poster on Boards. Interestingly I'm not alone in thinking this. Misrepresentation of what others say is also another favourite of yours.
    The numbers aren't there however if you wish to continually post this nonsense fire ahead as most already acknowledge SF can't form a government without either FG / FF.

    Blanch has repeatedly claimed to be a Green supporter, do you think he is lying?
