Simon Harris, the TikTok Taoiseach

Oh I am "OK" with it now. Not "condone" anymore. What other words would you like to put in my mouth?

And yet you refuse to answer straightforward questions - how would you solve it? Take your time now. How would you solve it?

We had an election ,my friend, and its still valid.

There will be a GE in less than a year so cool your jets and use your vote in less than twelve months time.

The only reason that would happen is so that people are put under the illusion that there's any difference at all between FF and FG…

Wow. And meanwhile McEntee was let continue in the job. Light sentencing for abusing children.

Another nail in the FG coffin.

How Did We End Up With Simon Harris as Taoiseach?! | The Millennial Cynic

Today I take a look at our new Taoiseach Soundbite Simon Harris, and ask how on earth we ended up in this mess. A Taoiseach no one wants, propped up by a government no one wants. A Taoiseach who failed upwards into the highest office in the land, aided and abetted by a Fianna Fáil party undergoing an identity crisis.

Varadkar stated that, ““Twitter, as it used to be called, has always been a bit of a sewer as far as social media goes”.

Why would you want to stay on a “sewer”? Why would a ‘bright young man’ use a social media network he himself calls a sewer?

Politicians these days seem to think that they know best, and the proles should let them get on with it and look up to them like royalty. They work for us, not the other way around. Ireland is a country, not a business or a commodity. It is being run into the ground but because of the leprechaun economics it looks like we’re rolling in money and the politicians look upon that as success. A very hard reset is needed politically in Ireland. I can’t see it happening though.

Brought up in the comments of the youtube video I linked earlier.

Is that under the constitution if the Taoiseach resigns, then effectively his cabinet has as well.

That is why they had to go to Aras for seals of office.

Haven't check the constitution if that is true.

I have just explained about my multiple accounts and if you don't like my explanation please jog on. Why are you happy to attack anyone who is anti government?

Well maybe try reading it again slowly. I got exactly what the post is about. Is this your way of getting out responding to it?

You must live in some Utopian world if thats how you see a bit of robust debate in a pub ending up. I see this kind of codswallop going on with kids in school these days. Even if certain kids look sideways at another they are accused of bulling by over protective virtuous parents. My sister was telling me that her son was accused of bullying by the parents of a girl in his class because he didn't want to sit beside her (she didn't like him and the feeling was mutual!) at a schol choir. Thankfully the principal told them to take a rain check (or cry him a river). Can you imagine the potential snowflake that child could turn out to be if that's how her parents are rearing her

simon harris seems more interested in being a Palestinian middle east politician than running the country and solving the housing, health, immigration, education etc. crisises facing his own country caused by FG over the last 14 years - doesn't seem like he is off to a good start

Didn't realise it was a dig at you, just a general comment that people attending political party conferences operate in an echo chamber where no criticism is profferred or acceptable. Tbh I think you take it all a bit too personally.

Pleased to see he has set up a task force on safety in Dublin. I believe the report will take 6 weeks and then hopefully we will see it implemented and positive changes in the city. This is such a big issue for me and I am glad he seems to be taking it seriously but only time will tell... I was disappointed that he kept Helen McEntee in justice as I feel we need a change there.

I am pleased that he took such a strong stance on Palestine and is giving it the importance it deserves. I am proud to see Ireland and Spain reported around the world taking leadership on this issue.
