This afternoon.
A damn close run thing it wasn’t.
Micheál Martin’s vote to follow.
UPDATE:
The result for Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin.
The result for Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams.
The result for AAA-PBP’s Richard Boyd Barrett.

Wow, that’s quite a thing
Is that Simon Harris’ hair in front of Enda? Or is it Jack Chambers sitting on the wrong side?
Either way, that is one conforming, right-wing, authoritarian sweep of gruaig.
He met a fella with two pints in each hand who told him this would happen…….
So what actually happens now? Presumably no-one gets to be Taoiseach. Do they go to the park and have Higgins knock some sense into them or what?
They adjourn for a few days of horse trading and try again.
In the interest of unity Gerry Adams will step in as interim Taoiseach.
SF and AAA wasting time….always there to provide an argument and do nothing constructive but say no and smirk in your face.
That smirk just became a grin.
Stop it or you’ll have me laughing.
Jesus just imagine barret as Taoiseach, love to see him try. His shouting routine on the likes of Merkel and Cameron and see how far it gets him, the fact he’s even being nominated shows what a joke the independents are that he’s who they chose
I’m lovin’ it
Nice to see Boxer Moran got down to Louis C and got properly fitted out!
Mary Lous suit is not flattering. I wonder if she’d like the number of my personal shopper at Pamela Scott?
I wish she’d get a refund on that public speaking coaching she’s done too.. she sounds so f’in whiney. Was it Prone who coached her? Someone said that to me once, that she got coached by the Proney wan.
RTE news earlier with Catherine Murphy, Jan O’Sullivan and Mary Lou.. the other two talk in a normal tone and you have Mary Lou talking like she’s at the pulpit or something. She’s talks like the whiniest school principal ever.
Ever word is over pronounced like she’s talking to simpletons. I can’t believe she’s like that at home, or she’d be divorced.. ‘yes, dear, we need to be clear on muuuters , thaaaaat’s the spoooot, keep it up’.. I don’t think so.
It’s very off putting to whatever she has to say.
Pamela Scott is for aul wans, she’s not that old!
Part of me is fascinated by all of this, another part of me wants to dig up the garden and get the spuds in fast so when it all does fall apart, I’ll have a crop ready.
Ha ha , I’m feeling ya !
why … after everything .. did FG stillg et most votes in the GE, and Kenny still end up being Taoiseach? that ‘maybe i like the misery’ Mrs.Doyle meme is spot on.
At last, a chance to live up to my name.

I wish more people would mention memes.
I can wreck any meme.
It’s my job.
Probably some poo about us having the fastest growing economy in the EU. Fupping FG and Kenny thinking they can get away with that.

It was very much just going through the motions today. Are these people still getting paid while the gay marriage is arranged? Nice number!
I have gained (some) respect for Noonan now that he has urged a speedy formation otherwise the country will suffer on the bonds market. I still don’t like him of course.
Mary Lou looked well, suits the dark colours. Unless she has the angry head on in which case it will be a vivid red outfit I expect, which will be most of the time. Yes that is a sexist comment… so sue me.
Pretty sure Ruth Coppinger has Angry Head trademarked for usage in Leinster House and it’s environs.
When she smiles, you’ll know capitalism has been vanquished forever.
The more competition for that title the better. Maybe BS could do an ANGRY HEAD sort of weekly thing. Not filtered snippets from RTE but real deal?
…you’d think the labour lads would take the hint
Lets count the abstentions shall we.
Kenny 7,
Martin 7,
Adams 18,
Boyd Barrett 38.
First vote of the 32nd Dail. Its basically a binary issue Yes/No. but yet we already have a total of 70 abstentions. Don’t we pay these people to have an opinion?
Well you can be sure the Kenny 7 are the same 7 as Martian
Free gaff.

I just saw this and thought I’d hammer it in here.
(WWN, but on form this time.)
First comment on it is from our good friend Dan Boyle

I also found this to be amusing;

I love how witheringly angry Kenny and Noonan look, while Gerry looks totally amused just to be there.
