Everything. As It Happens.
Great. Now Averil Power can go back to doing whatever her day job is and stay out of politics. She’s real bad at representing the people. In fact it’s a bit shameful she came in fourth. And she was pipped at the post in the general elections too.
Power isn’t bad at all , she seems able and committed. Although her reasons for ditching FF seems like bullpoo and I reckon it was the mickey didn’t like the cut of her jib.
It’s Bacik that upsets me , more years on the gravy train for her spouting her brand of hate.
offering nothing but tired worn out ideas but some people lap that up. the fools.
waste of space and money.
What brand of hate is this?
Exactly. I know Ivana: she’s lovely. And I am too, so NERRRRRRRRRRR.
She hates middle class people who aren’t SJWs.
Hi.
Not sure if you’re aware, but outside of gamergate circles, when a person uses the term social justice warrior as a pejorative, most people will assume that person is a tw@t.
I’m not a huge fan of Bacik but I have seen very little ‘hate’ from her. Care to explain?
She’ll get a cushy number at the Journal moderating comments against her beau.

A retirement home for failed politicians…
And a breeding ground for new ones.
It’s like pop acts at gay bars – you’re either on your way up, or on your way down.
If Lynn Ruane gets in ahead of Avril Power it would be incredible. Nothing against Power, it’s just that she seems like a career politician while Ruane is coming from a background entirely alien to the rest.
+1
Is this Baz fella still around?

Baz, where are you petal? I will hunt you down.. best to just say sorry now.
I see she’s in.. delighted for her.
As is Baz no doubt.. Baz?
What exactly is so great about her background?
– She had a kid,
– She went to college as an adult,
– She joins the Seanad
am i missing something?
Not saying Power is any better but Ruane isn’t exactly bringing much to the table.
You can follow her on twitter and see what people are saying about her –
https://twitter.com/LynnToWin
“words can’t capture how truly magnificent a person @LynnToWin is & the heart she would bring to the Seanad” etc etc.
what’s the point of the Seanad again?
To talk about how sexy Clare Daly is. (!???) https://www.broadsheet.ie/2013/05/17/eoghananism/
Is this the same guy?

Is Mullen UCI ?
Has that muppet gotten back in ?
Oops NUI
Yeah, probably got in because of the priests in the Alumni
Looks like it is more of the same. Ethna Tinney has the background and track record standing up to corruption and she ends up way down the list. Bacik spreads hate and gets in easily.
What hate?
as long as Power doesn’t get in I will be happy. the amount of coverage the Indo gave her in the election was ridiculous.
