    Agreed on Whooley's Twitter feed, he does appear to against it.

    He had Tweeted something earlier re. it but has since deleted the Tweet. Any idea what it was?

    No. Saw that he deleted something alright, but didn't see it prior.

    The Greens have ****ed it either way, by this public division.

    Basically, we're in World War economics without the shooting. The whole show is shagged for the next 2 to 3 years. So, the Greens can either man up and take some responsibility as legislators and be involved in a programme for economic recovery that has a green tinge to it, OR, they can watch on from the wings as deals are done with the Healy Raes, Verona Murphy, Michael Fitzmaurice, Marian Harkin and a few others to make it happen and the green objectives are fecked in the bin to pay for it.

    This is senior hurling lads, theres only a very slim chance of another general election in the current health emergency.

    His comments about Eamon Ryan a couple weeks ago would indicate he'd be happy enough voting against what he was voting for

    Well said and if they are thinking they could renegotiate with SF who would not give them next or near the promises FF & FG they'll be digging a bigger hole

    Interesting situation alright but really only shows how similar they are to other parties - this sort of carry on goes on across the board - Just look at Catherine Martins family for an example. There are far more serious things to criticise SF for.
