What are the policies?

Just wondering if the party manifestoes have been released yet, so that we can take a look at the policies?

Does anyone have any info that could be posted here on the policies of each party?

apologies if there is already thread about this.

in no particular order:

http://election.fiannafail.ie/pages/the-plan/

http://www.finegael2011.com/index.asp

http://www.labour.ie/policy/

http://www.sinnfein.ie/dail-election-2011

http://www.greenparty.ie/en/policies

http://www.unitedleftalliance.org/about-us/

This is what the main parties have out so far. Over the coming days, now that the election has been officially called, I'd say most will have more official documents - these pages should have them listed when they do.

Funny, people have been criticizing Labour for having no policies, yet their policy section is the most developed of any of the above sites. FF say theirs is coming soon, and FG's site is such a Web2.0 dogs dinner that their policy documents are almost impossible to find, even though they've hidden them in plain sight (I say this as a web developer). The rest are at various stages of completeness.

Just to add to phutyle's post, this site (http://research.finegael.org/polcol/a/25/article) is better than the glorified Twitter page Fine Gael have up at the moment as it lists all of their policy documents, instead of just three.

I'm sure the proper manifestos will be published soon.
