General Election 2011

Mary O’Rourke gone. FF havnt been this hammered since the Galway tent.

Has Michael Kennedy’s votes been transferred yet Rocko? Will surely heavily favour his running mate but he looks like he’s a fair bridge to gap. Very tight to call at this stage.

Classy speech by Gormley there. A real gentleman.

I love it! :clap:

Dublin North:

4th count: Daly (SP) +1,221 9,096 Farrell (FG) +683 6,406 Kennedy (FF Scum) +201 3,805 O’Brien (FF) +158 4,407 Sargent (Green) +686 5,169. 5th count of Kennedy’s votes now

Kennedy will give transfers to O’BRien but possibly some to Sargent. If Sargent can stay ahead of O’Brien then O’Brien would go next and would go more to Sargent than Farrell presumably. Just depends on Kennedy’s idiotic voters.

vat rates mate - there isnt only 1 vat rate

FFS

Good point, well made.

I’m revising my thoughts here.

Get the independents out and keep O’Toole ahead of Kenny and Power. Power will pick up no transfers presumably which will leave her first of the three possibilities to be eliminated. Her vote was expressly anti-SF but at the same time is still possibly as likely to go SF as Kenny - what Labour transfers she had were more likely to head to Broughan. Could be a close thing.

I think O’Brien’s transfers are as likely to go to Farrell as to Sargent.

there is generally one mate, the other ones are actually called “reduced VAT rates” as in they are not the VAT rate.

I disagree but I don’t think we’ll get to see that unfortunately because Kennedy will probably put O’Brien ahead of Sargent which would put Sargent out.

Yeah if Kennedy transfers 70% plus to O’Brien then he overtakes Sargent. Disappointing.

nah mate,there is a standard rate but there are a good few other rates

check the revenue website mate

That’s what I just said mate.

kenneddy & o’brien wernt exactly killing themselves to praise each other

rocko - keep me updated on grandad o toole

No there is more than one vat rate in this country rin, hence decision by one part of country to reduce it on booze, so as to catch up with the other part of the country.Get with it.

Yes the “reduced VAT rates” not the countries VAT rate.

Nasty looking cold sore being sported by Micheal Martin.

You can say that again .

VAT rate in Derry is different to vat rate in Donegal.More than one vat rate no matter how you spin it.
