Not enough time left in the dail for the pension tho lads……..
Although they still have time to cream the expenses.
i really hope labour get destroyed at the next election. useless careerist fuppers.
+1
YEAH TOTALLY !
Cant wait till we can just choose between FG, FF & SF.
2 right wing conservative parties and some socalist ex terrorists !
Burn Labour Burn !!
In light of Labour’s vigorous implementation of the austerity program (especially in their savage attacks on the poor and working poor), Labour is best defined as rightwing. There are other parties and independents to vote for besides SF.
As you wished the gone I discounted them from my count.
Independents are pointless in our electoral system, for every Claire Daly or Shane Ross we get a local celebrity like Mick ‘I was never a developer/whats PRSI’ Wallace.
The socailist workers party etc etc are too idealistic to actually do anything worthwhile.
People against Profit and too busy making sure they are so beyond reproach on supporting every left wing bleeding herat cause that they will never go national.
We need FG & FF to just accept that they are 2 sides of the same coin join together and then for whats left of Labour and the other left wing parties to join together and get a propper left / right system.
Leave SF on the side till they rid themselves of the nonsense that is gerry adams and his resident bully girl / denier Mary Lou.
Oh and of course Ming, Ming will rule us all eventually !
Agree that FG and FF are two sides of the same coin. But Labour is the same as FG and FF. The austerity agenda they so viciously pursued in government is equal (if not in excess) of any thing FG or FF have ever done. Labour attacked the poor and working poor in a disturbingly savage way.
Who? Seriously, now.
The greens? Who are happily taking a pro-homeopathy, anti-fluoride, anti-vax position in healthcare, not to mention a raft of other daftness?
The “Reform Alliance”? Yeah, I’d rather elect the Pope, at least then it’d be out in the open.
The communist party/socialist party/any one of ten other small parties that can’t field enough candidates to make a difference in the Dail even if every one of their candidates got every first preference in their constituency?
Or the single-issue independents who might be for one issue you agree with, but are raving lunatics on forty others? And who can’t compete with the party structure in the Dail because of the whip system?
I’d love to have an alternative, i honestly would; I’m just not seeing one.
greens are bollix. PBP and SP aren’t.
As James Connolly said in 1895 or so, there are no different parties, but “two sections of one party – the party of property”. Plus ça change, plus c’est la mème chose…
it would seem only Mr Harris understands the concept of a ‘summer suit’
Joan’s in white ( not a sexist comment an observation)
Burton is to Irish Labour, what Miliband is to UK Labour.
Time to raise TD pensionable age up from the extremely low of 50 it is now which was gifted to them by Ireland’s most famous corrupt politician, Haughey.
Two women?
Not naming them? Bodger how transparent are you?
The one on the right with the pink tie is Michael Ring, I think.
Horrible horrible people
