The previous outrage over members of the cabinet getting Garda drivers has truly aged like milk.
Yeh, that FG shower shouldn't have done that.
Breaking News: Financial crisis results in cuts.
I was referring to the outrage a few years back when the cuts were finally reversed.
If you could at least stand over your previous posts, but I didn't expect you would.
I didn't mention the poster because after doing another search I found another thread on the feedback forum so I removed the name. I am sure you can understand why?
How is it deflect/misdirect. I posted my views and the government would be re-elected now if an election.
Yet again you accuse someone of lying. Based on reviewing information I have no idea why you think you can accuse anyone of lying.
We need to spend a significant amount of time working on cross border projects before we even think about a United Ireland. This work has already started by the current government. Only working together like that will mend bridges and make sure everyone in Ireland, North and South. Wants a United Ireland.
This is just another example of the work that needs to be done, thankful we have parties in Rep who are willing to put the work in.
Was that not about Leo doing a favour for Coveney more than security Bub
If you aren't lying just LINK to the evidence BA. You have been asked to back it up...once again, back up seems thin on the ground with you.
Show me a post where I liked or agreed with the notion that there would be 'no FF supporters in Ireland'.
Not sure where you have got that idea. It was recommended following a security review by An Garda Síochána.
Off down a rabbit hole. No thanks.
Not sure who you think you are going around accusing every poster on this forum of lying when it suits you. It's a terrible way of trying to get a reaction from posters.
What outrage was there about that?
The only outrage I remember was about Leo doing a favour for Simon and intervening to ensure he kept his 'state car' (nothing to do with security more to do with a perk of office) he wasn't entitled to under the policy brought in by FG themselves.
You cannot back it up when asked, then it was a lie...very simple.
You know it's not a lie. You posted it. As I said I have no interest in someone who wants to lie about every interaction on this forum.
I did expect you might stand over what you post but you can't even do that.
This is f***ing ridiculous, WHERE did I post it? Back it up.
Do FG have any options here as their polling figures slide to the lowest ever?
Clearly they have to do something to arrest it and god knows they have tried. Martin continues to surprise, keeping himself out of trouble and performing well. Will a leadership change be enough in FG or is the electorate tired of them?
Varadkar is a disaster. Getting rid of him would reverse some of the damage but they are out of touch with middle class ireland and the same can be said for ff.
One thing is definite, he has been some gift to the rehabilitation of FF and Martin
😂
Varadkar is about to become Taoiseach and FG would be fully confident they can increase during this period. In terms of FF and FG out of touch with middle class? SF have been going on it was the youth of Ireland they are out of touch with, now it's the middle class 🤣
As I said if we have an election tomorrow we will end up with a FF/FG/Greens government and rightly so. Leave the opposition doing what they do best
Oh give me a break. Please. That stunt by a few UVF gimps does not validate the Garda driver expense for senior ministers in Ireland at all times. Give them a Garda driver when they go to NI, a foreign country, and problem is solved. Crony Coveney has no problem wasting taxpayer money. It costs 2.5m a year I believe, great that our national debt is reducing so fast too.
I'd rather the Garda spend their time on the streets of Dublin or investigating criminals or finishing those Council investigations that are supposedly 'stalled' with them.
I love that your new word is outrage by the way. 😂
You don't understand the Irish electoral system at all. There is Zero chance a FF/FG/Green government would be returned in an election tomorrrow. Zero.
Good poll result 😉
If party strategists are stupid enough to be seen depending on a repeat of the current coalition then FG could be heading for Labour party figures.
Amazing poll. Great to see SDs in 4th, I think the will continue to draw Labour voters in unless Bacik can work miracles after the leadership shambles.
As my own 1st preference Catherine Connolly said recently again - Labour has lost it's soul.
Absolute rubbish.
I don’t have a party.
You only have press releases.
Yeah. Any response to the actual post content Blanch? I fairly spelled out the advantages of the bill. You ran away as usual. I can only assume that you do not want local government reform despite what we know. It suggests that you condone the fraud, corruption, waste of public money, mismanagement, and lack of oversight and accountability.
That FF support is still holding up. I know we are still some way off an election, but I reckon they are more than happy with that. It's enough probably to give them confidence they could be part of a future government. Personally, I wouldn't go anywhere near them but it seems many either have very short memories or are comfortable with their performance.
SF seems to have plateaued now at around this figure. Hard to see this reducing much unless the media finds anything new to bait them with, such as a scandal. Would have to be a new scandal. We're all a bit weary about what went on in 1993 or whatever. I have no doubt some elements of our wonderful media are regularly trying to find an angle. Even if they can't we will still see the Indo and the IT's Stephen Collins given monthly rein to keep the digs in. No doubt that will increase as we get closer to an election. More and more effective performances in the Dail from SF, particularly from outside their top 3/4 representatives will be to their benefit.
There's nothing more Pleasurable than the Sun shinning, Clocks going forward, Garden coming to life, Grand stretch to the day and of course, another Dreadful Red C /Sunday Business Post Poll for FG 😏
But of course, it will be presumed to be another "Airy Fairy Poll" by some 🤭
"but it seems many either have very short memories or are comfortable with their performance."
You're not giving Leo et al enough credit.
Bacik has gone from strength to strength too.
Wow you are really obsessed with that storm in a tea cup. It’s almost as if the opposition are desperate to change the news story. As I pointed out from the start only one set of supporters are talking about it and it ain’t FG or Healy Rae ones
I understand it perfectly and I am perfectly correct with my prediction.
Zero chnace? 🤣 the opposition which couldn’t even cobble together two parties together after the last election is hardly going to manage this time
As I said if we have an election tomorrow we will end up with a FF/FG/Greens government
You're absolutely certain FF would want a reprise of the current arrangement?
I've said it before @brokenangel, you need to get out into the fresh air, do you the world of Good. Its fabulous here in the Midlands 😁
Fantastic result, did you get to watch Callan's Kicks, honestly the first segment will cheer you up ( actually maybe not) 😁
