Who will form the next government?

KingOfFairview

If you had to bet, who do you think (not hope) will form the next govt? I suspect it will be FF, Lab and SF.

Superted and the power rangers

arse..biscuits

I'm guessing a bunch of corrupt f*ckers

Napper Hawkins

It doesn't make the slightest bit of difference.

Phoebas

Only two possibilities I can see at the moment.
FF & SF
or
FG & LAB

Either combination may include support from Independents.

Its a bit late for a new party to emerge in time for the next election unless we see massive splits in the current parties.

Cant happen, you need elected TD's to be in government and Lab won't have any!

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

They are going to get some hiding alright.

I hope Dublin win the sam Maguire and be All Ireland champions and thus run the country.

It's frightening to think who'll get in because the options are terrible.

But you can be sure that FF will do well. Their closet supporters will out.

It'd be a tragicomedy.

It would be interesting to see how they'd manage the transition from populist opposition to practical politics, but it would be even more interesting to see how their new supporters would manage it.

Doesn't matter - it's gonna be anyone except the crowd that's in.
Until the next time, and then it's gonna be anyone except the crowd that's in.

No.

A coup. The army....9,000 of them. They seem to do nothing anyway. :rolleyes:

Definitely going to be SF with someone else . With the 1916 anniversary approaching fast and that is also the year of possible next election (correct me if I am wrong) , they will play the nationalist/green jersey card and get a ton of votes .

The only way out if this is a new party formed . that way we will be voting in the same bunch of clowns again

no matter who gets into power the country is still banjacked never mind SF every single party down there are lunatics,

South of Ireland = GREED GREED GREED ! well it,s come home to roost.
Michael Collins must be turning in his grave Shame on YOU !

This combination is even more unlikely than FG \ FF

The SF membership, who have the final say on any coalition, would never, ever allow that

Conmaicne Mara

FG + some new party + possibly independents.

Im sure thats what was said about the Labour membership before they went in with FF in 92.

I mean seriously If SF can power share with the DUP then why not FG

It would be foolish to think that SF members would never contemplate coalition with FG.

FG+FF , can't see the numbers enabling any other option

The numbers for FG and SF will be there.

I'm a SF member and I'd never vote for it, nor would any other members that I know.

I'd never vote for a coalition with FF either, unless we were the bigger party, and I can't see that happening any time soon.

KingOfFairview

Never mind the SF membership voting for it, FG wouldn't touch them with a ten-foot politics pole.

Annasopra

Seriously - you guys must be naive to think it'll never happen.

I can hear the voices now - Paisley and McGuinness powersharing - Never, never, never
