The accelerating fall in Sinn Féin support

Let us hope that pandemic of racist stupid politics never gains power here .... Foambrain in America and Netanyahu in Israel is more than enough for the world to make the otherwise odious Putin look good ... Gemma Serena Joy and Commander Fred Waters and Dolores Cahill ... even her own given name scares me ... no thank you ....

isnt it incredible that some one making the claim that the activities of sf effected you badly would still be such an ardent supporter .

And I actually did grow up during the latter years of the troubles and remember well the near daily atrocities, I guess i had more clarity as to who was murdering and bombing and claiming it as in my name.

sf murdered their way to where they are now and reminding ye of it does and will continue to shame and embarrass ye , that seems to be why there is usually such a back lash from the "on line army" when the crimes of your past are brough up .

There's always a min to remind folks that sf are first and foremost an organized crime gang controlled by who knows which contains many people who were never brought to justice for murders bombings and other crimes and are to this day protected by sf

You seem to have a real hard on for all things SF, are you a councillor or even a TD for that party?

Secondly its not a given that they will be in power after the next election and there is no way of knowing if they will do grand and we will be better off.

Its kinda ironic you say other people talk bollocks when you are doing quite a bit of it yourself.

Oh and just to add I'm not a member of either FF or FG.

I think they have made recent mistakes critising the Gardai after recent riots

i also think requesting an amnesty for tv licence dodgers - like it or not it’s the law

they didn’t request a refund for payers !

I am a SF voter - I have never hid that. Who I vote for doesnt shame me. Whats an 'online supporter'? Is a SF supporter whos online also an 'online SF supporter' or does an 'online SF supporter' have some kind of special role in your world? Wouldnt that mean anyone who supports SF and is on the internet is a 'online SF supporter'? Would that apply for everyone then? Arent you an 'online supporter' of whoever you vote for?

See what I mean about you being vague about things?

Why would I have anything to discuss on SF policies? It's yourself having a hernia over those. I already asked you to define exactly what policies you are looking for and maybe then you could going looking for them yourself

Outside of that do you think Im going to read your mind, find out what policies you need details on and then go find them for you? You're afraid of SF getting into power. More power to you. Personally I dont really care what you think or who you vote for.

how was she to know Mike isnt a SF supporter?

the current government being FF, FG and the Greens. That's three parties. Even IF they party support went below that of FF or FG, Im sure they'll still do well.

Im not here to tell you anything about SF - in fact how dare you assume I have to do anything at all for you. I basically cant be arsed for one, and secondly you are again referring to vague 'policies' that none of you have defined as yet. What policies in particular are you on about anyway?

The government SHOULD be calling an early election - look at the state of the place. I'd wager none of the three would fare well - but we'll have to wait and see. Nothing you have typed above makes any kind of point, other than you are comparing the votes of three parties against one and thinking thats some form of accomplishment. Outside of that what exactly are you saying? If they keep losing in polls the gov will call an election? I say great! do it now!

who will you vote for?

If it is deemed outdated, you can legally change the method of funding. Thats ok.

But until that new method of funding is in place, you keep revenue generation via the license as is, so there is no deficit incurred and everyone remaims compliant with the law. Thats the constant.

Encouraging people to break the law and not pay the license, before the new funding system is introduced, is populist in the extreme and the question has to be asked, if they can encourage people not to pay the license fee, what other laws could people be encouraged to ignore?

Its a massive own goal as any right minded person will see the implications here. And they go way beyond the license for your TV.

you are surprised quite a lot by the sound of things. I know what the party stands for - I just cant predict what their policies might be. As I keep saying, read the 2020 manifesto and you can see what they are offering. Go look up their proposed budgets each year. Stop demanding I tell you anything as I dont have to tell you ****. The info is there if you want to find it.
