Is it just me or have SF vanished?

I haven't seen or heard anything from Mary Lou, Slab Murphy and other good Republicans in ages.

What's going on?

I hope she makes a full recovery but as leader of the opposition should she not have made it public that she had symptoms and was being tested. It's really strange that she just said nothing and just disappeared regardless of which side she's on. Imagine if Leo Varadkar or Michael Martin said they had a cold, never mentioned they were being tested for coronavirus and just disappeared for a couple of weeks. They would be accused of all sorts of coverups.
At least she has now admitted to testing positive and did the right thing by self isolating.

It's actually f*cking unbelievable how myself and many other posters here were repeatedly mocked when we pointed out the utter hypocrisy and scumbaggery of others blasting Mary Lou for self-isolating after coming down with cold symptoms after her child's school was one of the first confirmed in the country, and when we furthermore stated that if she had carried on as usual despite feeling unwell, those same posters would have been attacking her for putting party and politics before country in risking the health of those around her by not taking precautions.

This thread is deafeningly silent today, now that we know the poor woman has not only been diagnosed formally with COVID-19, but from the sound of it has been through hell from complications arising thereof. Those same posters who have spent the last several weeks posting along the lines of "Ha ha ha poor wee Mary Lou has a little head cold and is using it as an excuse to run away from crisis management and government formation" are nowhere to be found.

It's not often that arguments about politics over the internet actually provoke genuine anger on my part but today is one of those days. You should all be thoroughly ashamed of yourselves for being such unimaginable douchebags on this subject. The next time you want to accuse the left of playing dirty politics, putting party before country, conflating the political with the personal, etc, look in a God damn mirror and keep it to yourselves. To anyone who wonders why myself and many others on the left accuse neoliberals of utterly heartless politics which literally treats human beings and their real lives as secondary concerns, this is exactly what we're talking about.

Gobsh!tes the lot of ye.

Hard to see any party endorsing taking money for rent directly from people's dole tbh.

Sadly that's true which is why dole bashing threads will always be popular on boards, their quite understandable.

Saw a screenshot of her Easter address thingy (didn't watch it), she looked ill in fairness.

Whatever you think about whichever politicians, I wouldn't be sneering at someone who is ill at a time like this.

(By way of example, I've pulled up posters before for having a pop at Simon Harris' often gaunt appearance, which isn't fair as it's widely known he has Crohn's)

The same poster was making rather ugly comments about her appearance as well, which shows you where we're at.

I thought that grating noise was gone from my T.V. but I notice it back today

Thought the same of Borris Johnson. He looks shook. Pleurisy is a nasty infection also.

Well, there once was a feller named Willard McVane
And he only had just one thought on his brain
Every evening about midnight he'd sneak off alone
And call the same lady on a pay telephone
'It's me again, Margaret
Hello, is this Margaret?
You don't know me, Margaret, but I know you.'

Im fascinated you mention FG in all your posts on a SF thread.

I suppose when there is nothing to actually talk about with SF cause they do sweet nothing anyway you have to fill the pages somehow.

Good to see we've moved on from peddling lies about 65k houses anyway.

Only took half a dozen pages and now we've moved on to plumbers don't exist. Who knows where the next half-dozen will take the the true blue contingent?

I wonder how many times Venezuela will get mentioned?

Stay tuned folks...

You're right - this is an SF-related thread, so the emphasis should be on their [lack of] competence.....

Not even a global pandemic can bring Sinn Fein to welcome help from the Brits…

All in all, it has made Sinn Fein’s leadership in the north seem weak, ineffectual and absent of the mettle to accept Executive decisions. Indeed, their dissent to date has achieved little and if anything, can be construed as frustrating a united crisis response. It can be put down to not much more than Sinn Fein’s failure to exorcise crude legacy ghosts and their everlasting binary inner monologue whispering in their ear that British is bad and Irish is good.

.....we need only look up the road to see what's in store for us when they get in.

Like i said,your free to.use meaningless graphs all you want,

I have no interest,nor intention of changing your posting habits

However, you did post....

Well you certainly dont calibrate or set up a graph,where the same axis measures two.different things

This is junior cert level stuff....ironic people sneer at others education,while pedelling sh1t graphs

.....which I responded to, with a very short Tableau lesson and one example.

Here's another example using bars

Do Approved Housing Bodies have directly employed labour forces capable of building the requisite number of houses and if they don't who will they contract with to get them built?

Not getting the vibe that there's a lot of spare house-building capacity out there.

Whatever the model SF choose, it simply comes back to resources and cost - if you want to build at the level they are talking about the resource pool needs to be expnded - that either means paying more (thus blowing their €6.5 billion figure) to encourage people to return to work in building and construction or importing workers from elsewhere, thus creating added demand pressures.

Mary Lou said they will all come home from Oz!!

And she'll direct all construction from hotels and industrial buildings to build 100,000 social houses!!!!

Problem sorted just like that.

So how does one "calibrate" a graph?

And it's not just maths SF are bad at - some of their bright young things called to canvass my father-in-law on his farm.......and proceeded with their spiel about SF and agriculture.....which was all centred on beef and dairy farming......they didn't realise they were on a tillage holding and when he asked about grain supports they were, to say the least, perplexed!
