It sickens me to see how this government we didn't want, will bend us over every chance they get. Maybe the French have some guillotines they're not using any more, even a slightly used one might do.

There must be a lot more to the organisation than lobbying.

Word on the street is her arrogant comments in the election debate back in February to the young couple commuting 3 hours a day from Navan while paying eye watering rents and not being able to save for a house deposit are what finished Doherty in Meath, she could never have gotten elected there again after she told that young couple that they should be happy that the economy was doing so well. A classic case of a politician being completely out of touch with the electorate. So Regina having been rejected by the electorate in Meath is now foisted on to the electorate in Fingal. She should be a good fit in Fingal given the electorate there has a penchant for voting in dodgy FG politicians, between James O'Reilly the doctor who said he was going to fix the HSE and the other lad Alan Farrell and his insurance scamming Regina should find herself nicely at home in a hotbed of Fine Gael failure.
