Election to be called Fri - predict outcome

Ah yes anecdotes anecdotes and more anecdotes.

Sure the building sites near me are busy, we must be on 40k per annum now

All analysts pointed out at the time that surge in commencements was solely due to waivers for levies that had a deadline - get your commencements in or pass full fees

No surprise what developers go for - but does this mean they are now outputting far more units? Does it feck!

The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and end of year and next year completions will show that activity hasn't ramped up anything close to what is being spun.

Read what I said again and quote it all. And check the post I was replying to. Then turn down your thermostat one degree.

Lol, ok, glad to see the back of that lying troll anyway, Harris glows in comparison.

Indeed, like giving that slapper of a girlfriend a second, third and fourth chance if you'll excuse the crass analogy 😁

here it is.

I don't think immigration is that big an issue at the moment, it really hasn't been in any sort of headlines or even mentioned much on social media since early summer - Coincidentally in run up to local elections.

And I think the reason is rather prosaic - not that many migrants are coming at the moment, because they are not stupid and talk online about reality on the ground, and well reality on the ground in Ireland is if you arrive here now, you'll be put into direct provision in a tent in Brittas, or a hostel like room in an old hotel in the middle of nowhere, you'll be fed so you can't complain but won't be able to work or make the 'fortune' you thought you'd make. Meanwhile Ireland has just had a crap summer even by our standards, so you'll feel perpetually cold and damp if you've come from somewhere warm. Also the Rwanda threat in the UK is gone.

You can see it in Dublin, migrants just aren't arriving in same numbers at all

Bear in mind that houses being built does not mean houses being sold to the general public.

Many new schemes/estates are sold directly to the LA or a AHB.

They could; but they won't. There is zero chance they will give up on their single issue to enter a coalition; or else the party would basically cease to be - it only exists for that single issue of not accepting the status quo. Everything else is window dressing.

I support carbon taxes, yes.

Whether I support them rising to 100 euro per tonne, I am open to debate on that.

The legislation plans the tax to rise to 100 euro per tonne.

I support VAT being cut from 23% to 20%.

I want the marginal income tax on median earnings to be cut sharply, from 48.6% to maybe 35%.

So, yes, I am happy for carbon and property taxes to rise, as long as marginal income rates on median and mean earnings falls.

Please God not SD another lunatic far left party who want to implement anti free speech laws.

Is tomorrow the deadline for to call an election in mid November? Also even if there was an election pre Christmas isn't it likely a government won't be formed until the new year?

They are the strongest supporters of this so called hate speech law. Anyone who supports it won't get a vote from me
