FIGHT!
Update:
"You can tell Ivan Yates I'll have a bet with him," says Enda of the November 20 election prediction. "And he will lose."

This would be silly, election before the effects of the budget apply.
I call BS.
if it is to be called then, it’s rather good timing as the #JobstownNotGuilty are in court on Nov 2nd
And by good timing I mean interesting
I think that you might be overestimating the effect the interest of the wider electorate in the Jobstown case.
that be it
True Posh Boy in disguise Paul Murphy should be banged up by then giving his constituents some decent representation.
It’s actually fairly sensible. Think of the amount of scandals and controversies the government had just between the budget last year and last February – they didn’t see a whit of a bounce after their budget kicked in.
They’re incompetent – best to go to the polls before any other unforced errors.
Utter crap…this is not thejournal.ie lads

Are you pulling a David McWilliams??
Wow – what a massive unconnected coincidence – a capital spend by the government was also announced today of 27 billion euro, 27 billion euro we didn’t have yesterday – a bribe so big it betrays the fear of not getting re-elected, sh1tting their kecks. Ham-fisted, flat-footed, bribery.
Sooo, the sooner we have the election the less it will cost us?
Kolmo, we did have this money yesterday. In fact, this is the 4th time this spend has been anounced.
It includes a new children’s hospital, you heard it here last!
– 1 tinfoil hat
My manager in work actually called it out as pre-Christmas about a month ago.
He said no government wants the A&E Depts packed full of old-people on trolleys in Spring when you can call an election on an upbeat Budget. Besides, it would be silly to call an Election for when people are looking at the REAL improvement/otherwise of the budget, at least before Christmas it is an election based on a promise of improvement.
Tell your manager in work that I said he’s an a$$hat
Don’t be so subservient to your manager’s armchair ramblings.
Are they assuming Independent candidates who will struggle to compete with big party candidates in terms of spend and campaign resources, will not be able to put it up t’them in the Cold Dark November days on the Canvas?
Smart ûnts
Good move. And there’s time for one more Shinner kiddyfiddling story before then.
post rwc win reflected glory
…Ivan might have insider information because the election will be when Denis says so…
All the same, was’nt Ivan very lucky to come out of his U.K. bankruptcy ok, with his full faculties?
He managed to get himself a good job on the radio and even held on to his aul pensions.
Lucky lad allright, and still in there with the old sources, what a performer.
Ivan being the undeserving receiver of a highly inflated and early age state pension an’ all… I’d guess the lacky got this info from Dinnish….
Who cares what that muppet says!
Maybe
Dinnish is the one calling the election
Well, they’re hardly going to have their comfy December Recess hijacked by opposition candidates electioneering.
So this is a believable date.
Just wish we had a poster ban in place in the name of litter-control and visual pollution.
Nice one Ivan ! I’ve got a tenner on with Paddy Power at 3/1 for a 2015 election since last November when it looked like the govt would collapse due to the water charges and that 100,000 strong protest. I’ve been waiting all feckin year for this election so here’s hoping Ivan is on the money
My sources tell me that i need a bit of attention because my ratings are going down the pan. You heard it here first!
I agree Jean Claude
Unfortunately I caught a bit of this twerp’s inane bs this morning and he is surely going to hell in a hand basket
No wonder Ivan’s bookies went out of business.
