You got it handed to you in this thread (65k houses anyone?) and the evidence is all over the thread, though it may be painful for you to look at. Margaret Cash, Venezuela, Margaret Cash, Venezuela, plumbers. Have I missed anything? Oh, and the best part? I'm not even a member of Sinn Féin and have given them a first preference a sum total one time in my voting life.

Surely not Thun, surely not? I mean we already had a case here of someone complaining about the shinners proposal to build 60k "free gaffs'" (his words not mine) who was unaware the FG party had the same proposal (announced only a few months ago) apparently also robbed from the shinners? The incoming twisting and contortions will surely provide me with weeks of entertainment, even more so than had the Shinners ran more candidates and further relegated FFGs seat numbers. It will be a welcoming distraction from the covid 19 doom and gloom if nothing else I suppose. It'll still be funny though.

Yet SF decided to run a candidate who shafted a charity, who gets in to spats on Facebook with her constituents and calls her fellow politicians childish names yet there is barely a peep out of you. However I do agree with the poster you replied to.
McMurphy wrote: » Sinn Fein should boot that TD from the party and introduce a much more stringent vetting process for future candidates. If any of that fly's in the face of my condemnation of Maria Bailey and how she tried to stroke a local business and how leo tried to bury the story, let me know Christy and I'll run through it with you chief. I know you wanted me to further simplify an already kid friendly simple post last night, but c'mon now chief, surely you're made of better stuff than the above scutter?
christy c wrote: » You were perfectly entitled to criticise Maria Bailey and laugh at it. I'm just pointing out your double standards as to how there is barely a peep out of you with regard to that one in Clare, yet you were all over Maria Bailey. I didn't want you to simplify anything last night, I added some clarity. That's all, seems you didn't like that now for some reason.
McMurphy wrote: » I think Christy that you night have a very poor grasp of the term double standards, double standards would be me chastising Maria Bailey and leo while defending your other one. I didn't even know who she was when the thread was opened, I didn't recognise the name. So in actual fact, you're whinging in that I'm not posting in a thread calling for her head is that it? Maria Bailey should have been booted from the party when her and Josephas plan got exposed. The Sinn Fein TD should also get the same treatment, and a more thorough vetting process should be in place for future candidates. It doesn't matter a shiny shyte to me what party a TD or minister hails from, if they're indulging in unethical practices, blast them into orbit so far as I'm concerned. Do you see where your double standards argument has a gaping big hole in the side of it Christy?

I don't have the inclination to check, but if we were to place a wager - if fancy my chances that you would look like talking through your backside. Perhaps your bored in lockdown Christy, I don't know. But trying to find holes in my post history won't work. You're the one coming off badly from it, but sure carry on if you want, I'll not shy away from it. And to think this all started over the blueshirts robbing the shinners policies. Get up the yard chief

I asked you for evidence of your claim plumbers don't exist yesterday and all you replied with was you tube videos about Venezuela when it wasn't even me who made the long post comparing SF to Venezuela. All you do is deflect and snipe when asked for evidence of your nonsense claims. I hope you're been paid well to make a fool of yourself here daily.

As for waltzing into this thread , the only one doing that is yourself ,i have been posting on it for weeks .You only just arrived when Mary Lou got corvid because it gave you something to shout about , why did you not argue the point on any other issues that have been discussed on here for the past few weeks? You just arrive on and become Francie mark2 and pick and choose what you want to reply to.
McMurphy wrote: » Another poster complaining I have not been posting enough on a thread, post in a thread a lot, and complaining about posting in them too much, you can't win sometimes it seems. It is however interesting that you say you've been posting in it for weeks - were trumpeting about shinners 60k free gaffs', yet didn't know fg had the same promise made, that's a bit strange to me tbh. You are now saying I only came on to say something about Mary Lou, and then pulled your 60k free gaff spiel asunder so that's a contradiction in itself. But anyway, you've been re-educated about free gaffs and who is promising them, if it stops you droning on post after post with the same misconception I consider that a job well done.

Their core vote is somewhere between 12 and 15% - those people are going to vote for them no matter how many "ex"-paramilitaries they employ, or how many representatives they bully out of the party. Being generous, even if we assume they doubled their vote from 12% to the 24% of first preferences achieved in the recent GE, that's only* 12% of the electorate who swapped their vote to SF, meaning 88% either voted as they normally do or went with someone else. Can a vote for SF be regarded as a vote for change, when at most only* 1-in-8 switched their allegiance to them? Maybe if you've the mathematical ability of a typical SF supporter you can regard it as such but whatever way you spin it many, many more people declined to vote SF than actually voted SF. *I use the word "only" here in discussing proportions - in terms of vote swing a 12% gain is, relatively speaking, a rare event.
