Well they have done more that the British have in 700 years. They destroyed it! FG, Labour, FF, Greens, Independents, the defunked PD's have all contributed to this, as they have all been in power in some way over the years. If it weren't for such a party like SF, who might I add were kept out of the policitical arena for years. And don't forget, all the parties have blood on their hands show how or other. So, if anyone wants to know something or have action taken, just go to your local SF councilor / TD and you will get both a reply and action taken. I guess its all over now, bar the shouting, and I bet David Camoron is rubbing his has with glee.

So while we wait for an answer to the questions, like through the tribunal system. The country goes down the pan. Now, it looks like SF don't have as many questions as the other parties have to answer. Since they never really got a chance to run Ireland. So why not give SF a crack at the whip for a change... Or SF and Labour in power and have some focus on the working class people of Ireland and give them back the dignity! If anyone thinks that none of the politicial parties in Ireland have no questions to answer, their wrong! As for who I'll be voting for. Well SF of course, and just to add I have 4 children of voting age that have partners, who I will ask to vote for SF., because I feel SF can do the job!

i would vote Sinn Fein because i dont think a Labout/FG coalition is going to work, both parties will be too strong, and the only reason i would vote Sinn Fein is because theres no other non powerful party to vote far, couldnt ever vote FF after the mess, Boyd Barrett is an idiot, independents have messed with all the major Dail votes in the past year being bought for votes and in return getting their local community stuff

Chipboard wrote: » You don't state the reason for your objection to Sinn Fein so I am going to address two popularly held reasons which may be relevant;You are taking exception to Sinn Fein because of its roots in the Republican movement. If you knew anything you'd know that all over the world there are Governments who came to power through armed struggle - governments who freed their people from oppression. Its easy to be an armchair critic but if you lived in the North you would have an entirely different perspective.You think that Sinn Fein doesn't have the experience or that their policies don't make sense. Fianna Fail have been in power for 20 of the last 23 years and they have succeeded in destroying the Irish economy. How could you possibly argue that Sinn Fein are worse than Fianna Fail. What could possibly happen under Sinn Fein that would be worse than the events of the last 5 years?

Dont have to be an economic wiz master to know all the others are out to make the rich happy and EU and not the Irish public.

Yet SFs plans are to use the NPRF to pay for everything, the fact that their is not enough in it for the first thing doesnt seem to matter to them. You dont have to be a wiz to know that if you tell the IMF to piss off with their money and default on our loans, the same people you refused to pay back and who lost billions because of you are not going to give you more money 12 months later. SFs policy can not work and they are economically illiterate. SF will not be in government whatever happens. They know this themselves and so can make all these unrealistic promises safe in the knowledge they wont have to implement any of it.
