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?

Would it be a contact of a similar nature that told Dessie Ellis some porkies about 17 dead people, something he repeated on a public forum but had to embarrassingly retract?

Maybe a 'good' republican was able to source the PPE?

But yeah,you seem to be avoiding explaing how we have had 2 once in a century events in little over a decade,nor can you give gaurantee nothing similar will happen for next 90 or so years???

We had these events for reasons larger than any Irish political party can control. If this needs explaining further then I cannot help you.

Now, why you insist on going down this weird alley of yours is an even bigger mystery.

But ff/fg mouthbreaters will parrot the once in a century line unquestioned.....ive been fooled enough by them in my life to not go there again

Do you need a hug and constant reassurance about the world? Half the time the world is on the verge of chaos. Not sure what this has to do with FG, FF or even SF.

By the way, SF and other parties are using that 'once in a century' line as well.

Profit off the public?

Do you mean like get the HSE to buy PPE from a contact of yours, like Louise O'Reilly is asking?

It was fairly obvious from very soon after the election that they were going to be in opposition. It was very optimistic of people to think they would end up forming a government.

I have no idea what happened to the official IRA guns or what it has to do with labour.

Lord,do you really not know links between labour and official ira??

Taught this was basic stuff

I was pointing out the SF help .

Yes, they want to do more of the issue that caused a problem - private provision of PPE. Some help that is.

Again though, the truth comes out later, and the fake news is already out there.

Seemingly in the UK,there have been 40,000 offers of ppe for the NHS from private sources
Only 2000 have been contracted so far because all offers have to be strictly vetted for quality and rightly so

Going by this thread, that's debatable.

Back then FG would have been in opposition, and presumably would have stepped up, had all the answers, cured us all, go on to lead us into years of prosperity.

That's what FG folk seem to expect from the shinners going by this thread anyway.

Also, in case you missed it, there's this gem of a post by Mark which goes on with the "what if" angle.

Just expect them to do something more constructive than putting out misinformation on tweets and other social media. Eoin O'Broin has spent more time deleting his while poor old Dessie is having to apologise for his.

For fools it is better to remain quiet rather than opening your mouth and confirming it to the world. It seems SF got tired of this after a month or so.

At least today its being competently managed and there are funding avenues thanks to our good paying reputation to mitigate it
Funding avenues that I'd expect because they're availed of through no fault of our own,will be packaged away somewhere that wont affect our stimulus plans or low interest borrowing capacity on the markets ie no austerity requirements
