Seriously though could you imagine the AAA crowd along with a bunch of independents being allowed to run the country?

Mick Wallace = Minister for finance (Taxes what taxes?)

Ming = Minister for health (free cannabis for all ailments)

Claire whatsherface = Minister for social protection. (Lifetime dole payments, apply once only)

I find it embarrassing that someone running for office during a period of austerity would use a sports car for their election campaign!

Sends out the wrong message!

She also calls herself a Banking Solicitor!

A 'sports car', eh?

I find this thread embarrassing.

For you.

Your having a laugh, FF /FG /Lab have already done that over the last 7 years.

You won't see people before profit bailing out banks and imposing more and more austerity on people and ludicrously claim they have done a great job.

It's funny (but not really) how people resort to using the one, almost stereotypical, info piece that know about a person.

You're right

They would lower taxes

Have a police officer on every corner

Private hospital rooms for all

Minimum wage of €20 per hour

And all the while the money for this would come from.........?

It would almost be as inconceivable as a minister for justice breaking the law......oh wait!

Back to austerity Fine Gael style, I see Simon "the unlike able" Harris has been enjoying some lobster sandwiches on the campaign trail. It's a far cry from the rubber chicken and hang sandwiches.

It really has come down to childish idiocy at this stage.

That story linked and this thread are prime examples.

MAN EATS POTENTIALLY PRICEY SANDWICH!

CANDIDATE DRIVES CAR!

It's all about perception Micky don't forget that. A party confiscating medical cards from the sick and disabled while canvassing in sports cars and eating lobster sandwiches is just sloppy. You can dismiss it if you want but these images jar with the voting public.

Remember a Fine Gael government fell when John Bruton tried to tax children's shoes. Perception matters.

Austerity, Fine Gael style!
