There you have it now. Leader of the law and order party advocating for a political party, he believes are under the control of an illegal organisation to lead the country. Confusing? You better frickin believe it is!

You have no argument against him standing for election, presumably because this is a free country you have no difficulty if someone out there decides to vote for him because they agree with him.

If value investment in Ireland was 15%, but growth investment was 25%, the figure in the graph would be -10%. If value investment in Finland was 8%, but growth investment was 2%, the figure in the graph would be +6%. Now that is a gross over-simplification to explain it to you, but it seems necessary. Before you go attacking the numbers I have used for Ireland and Finland, the point is that there is absolutely nothing in that table that tells you anything at all about which country to invest in.

You are inferring that and it's not the case. You have made issue of her gender not I. Tell me about managing conflicts of interest. Does it involve some form of scouts honour or pinky swear? You've a very ignorant idea of married life. If she was the Goldman Sachs exec and him the FG adviser, turned FG TD, the issue would still stand. Using her sex to dodge is gutter tactics and highly misogynistic. He represented the interests of a major vulture fund operating within the Irish property market. She was advising FG on housing policy before becoming a FG TD. That's a conflict of interest. Switch FG for SF and you'd sh*t.

McMurphy wrote: » "You don't understand" make up a fairly sizeable chunk of your opening lines of posts blanch, but seldom if ever are they followed up with any clarification of what it is you mistakenly believe people don't understand. Fairly tiresome it is. But go on sure, explain to me from a green voters perspective, what point Leo was making when he tells the Irish people that SF are controlled by an IRA army council in one breath, and in the next breath tell us that the shinners have an onus on them to now to go into govt? What point am I missing do you think, and when you've done that, maybe answer the question that was put to you yesterday too.

Hugo MacNeill (MD of Goldman Sachs) listing himself as non profit on #Seanad election ballot is something to behold His wife, now a FG TD, who was a FG housing advisor while her husband's vulture funds swallowed up family homes is a fine example of everything wrong with politics
