FF/FG/Green Government - Part 3 - Threadbanned User List in OP

Wrong on so many levels.

You see, like him or not or his party, he is in there organising and making and helping make policy decisions.

While on the other hand all the opposition party's are doing is sitting there having a good whinge and moan about the decisions and policies he is influencing.

No blanch. I am reading the room. FFG will reap what they have sown over the next 2 years.

None of the opposition want to be tasked with cleaning up the utter disasters that FFG have created and continue to worsen. But we need an end to the FFG power swap and some blinkered citizens including yourself cannot see that.

The government have 5 years to fix the housing disaster, the health crisis, waiting lists, homelessness, rental crisis, cost-of-living crisis, A&E waiting times, children's hospital, climate targets, forced emigration etc etc. Let them go full term and prove us all wrong. Let's see how all those 'plans' go...

Waffle waffle waffle. I have never called for an early end to this government. Not once.

And I won't be drawn in to your SF obsession to prevent being reported 😉

And I will vote Catherine Connolly (IND) again at the next general election. She is great at keeping the 3 unwise men in check.

I must say I thoroughly enjoyed seeing our own FF charlatan O'Cuiv saying Ta to a FG leader as Taoiseach. Priceless stuff. It just shows how many decades this country wasted on the civil war politics charade. That's all it was. A pretence to allow for corruption and cronyism on a wide scale.

MLMD is the only opposition politician claiming to want to be Taoiseach, yet according to you, she is too afraid of actually doing the job.

However, I am happy to put all of the opposition into that box. Where was Catherine Connolly's nomination, or her co-leader's? They also appear to be afraid of taking on the role.

I find it astonishing that anyone, politician or otherwise, would simultaneously be claiming that the government is destroying the country while also claiming that they are prepared to wait another two and a half years for an election because it will be even worse by then. That can only be described as some form of self-punishment.

The most illuminating part of this weekend was the craven nature of the opposition.

SF are fake opposition, they will do business with FG/FF and so would FG/FF. They are stepping more and more into the mainstream and I'd be shocked if they don't get a go in the next election. They'll go the same way as Labour, PD's and be thrown under a bus by FF/FG.

Yes yes....she is the leas-cheann comhairle of Dail Eireann and is one of the most respected TDs in Leinster House. Your own Fergus O'Dowd of Irish Water fame went for the role but was defeated. Her Dail speeches have absolutely held the 3 unwise men to account. I think I posted a few of them but you may have missed them. Some superb contributions around the Mother and Baby home report (how's that leak investigation going by the way?). What have the FFG cabinet ministers achieved in basics such as housing, health, homelessness, waiting lists, trolley crisis, climate etc? All worse yeah?

2 former health ministers in charge and the health system continues to deteriorate.

INMO warns of dangerous overcrowding as 760 on trolleys (rte.ie)

There were 760 admitted patients waiting for a hospital bed this morning, the highest number since January 2020, according to the Irish Nurses and Midwives Organisation.

There were also 39 patients waiting for a bed at the three children's hospitals - 19 at Children's Health Ireland Crumlin, 15 at the National Children's Hospital, Tallaght and five at CHI Temple Street.

"We know that more often than not our members are working in conditions that are unsafely staffed, meaning that providing safe care in an overcrowded environment is impossible."

Yes indeed, FF is to blame for the state of the Republic of Ireland in 2022:

3rd in the world Global safety index

5th in the world Human Freedom Index

6th GDP per capita

8th on the good country index

11th on the global charitable country index

13th Global happiness index

14th quality of life index

As the saying goes, a lot done, more to do

The maths of the current Dáil mean it's impossible for any of the opposition parties to go into government. Hardly makes them cowardly.

Earlier in the week government supporters were suggesting Boyd Barretts motion of no confidence was a waste of Dáil time. Now they are suggesting that the opposition should be nominating a Taoiseach which would be another waste of Dáil time.

Hello everybody, I have a house and a good job and my health is fine so I don't give a fiddlers about the crumbling health system or the housing disaster or the homeless. It doesn't affect me. I'm fine. Let them eat cake.

Ther perma whingers are rudderless in recent times

Yeah tell the people of Rathkeale about the Global Safety Index.

Tell the two families in Sligo that lost a member to an interloper simply because he hates gay people about the global safety index.

Or perhaps tell the family of girl in Offaly about how great we are on safety.

Tell the people in towns and cities how safe we are when they watch kids ramp police cars and laugh in videos about it.

GDP per capita, all based on FDI which at the moment is retrenching itself and always dependent on what US does.

Wohooo 11th for charity, you mean that there are 10 bigger idiots countries out there gifting money to NGO slush funds and countries to buy fighter jets. (wasn't Michael involved personally in that one btw)

Why not tell those sitting a day in A&E, the ones waiting years on operations, the ones living in the box room at home because even renting is now beyond people with a semi decent job about how great the quality of life is?

Or perhaps you will do like your fellow government mouthpiece and tell us how wonderful a childrens hospital we will have .... someday.

A lot done my ar**, all your government have done is throw open our borders.

Quislings.

Nice to see the FFers and FGerrs agreeing yet again.

Why not get it over with and just coalesce once and for all.

Fooking spanners not fit to run a corner shop.

You're supposedly selfless, I'm selfish. Anyone who wants to meet me for a cup of tea to hear first hand horror stories of me seeing two family members exposed to the vagaries of the public health system are more than welcome. This is despite the huge amount we spend per capita (with a relatively young population). And dear old Finty needed worry about randomers "eliminating the rich" - look at our personal tax rates, cost of living, rates of social welfare etc. The government is doing a fine job of this as we speak - no help needed

Also re. ranking - we rank very highly on the "government debt per capita index" also, that one is missing from his list.

If all the whingers and moaners moved to Ukraine and Syria for a higher quality of life than in Ireland, we wouldn't have as much problems housing the refugees.

Why do you think so many people want to come and live here? It's not for the shenanigans in Rathkeale, one small town with particular issues. It is because of the higher quality of life in Ireland.

Health outcomes in Ireland are ahead of most of the rest of the world, as shown by our life expectancy.
