General Election 2016

Lemass shot his infant brother dead.

That’s my issue with SF, who I am fond of but their policies are cloudy. Adam’s certainly can’t articulate them anyway.

What Pearse talks about in his finance debates doesn’t add up either along with Noonan’s spoof on abolishing the USC.

No wonder people are fed up of politics.

What should have Adams done here?

There is nothing drastic in their policies, the only change will be that the elite in society will finally be brought to heel and make contribute to a fairer society.

No we don’t you ape.

160k people long term unemployed during the boom years with hordes of immigrants coming in to take up the jobs they wouldn’t do. All the time whilst you could up skill at the cost of the state with relative ease.

How can everyone of these adult children barring the one on disability not be able to find a job? At 188 hundred euro a week that’s nearly 1000 a week for just the unemployed element of the benefits.

The reality is their policies are bullshit the same as other Parties. No one will have a mandate or enough seats to implement their manifesto’s.

Care to flesh that out, mate.

The majority of the nationalist population did not support them at the ballot box.

They murdered civilians.

It’s a numbers thing, probably better not wasting my time fleshing it out any further for you.

Carryharry ?

Outed the cunt who killed Robert.

50% tax on every euro over 33k, FFS.

Do you think that’s an average across the developed world.

And what public services do we get for it? Not to mention our extortionary car tax, health insurance, car insurace and the rest. You fucking lunatic.

What? He asked people to cooperate with the police.outing someone would be highly unusual

Sinn Fein was an ancillary part to IRA at that stage, the military campaign was the chosen path at that point and constitutional politics was an asides. The Provos were largely supported by the nationalist community. It’s not surpising when the republican movement decided to focus on constitutional politics it brought with in the constitutional backing of the national community. They had earned it with 30 years of armed struggle in order to battle for the rights of their people.

We might get decent bang for our buck if the Unions were forced to work as people in the private sector do and do what their employers ask of them.

Instead in Ireland there’s this magical thing called social partnership which sounds great in theory. Except the Unions never follow through on efficiencies.

The Left have no will to confront this as low paid PS workers are their bread and butter.

Nothing will change. As it has been for decades it will be mostly good money thrown at the wall. A few exceptions of course, Martin was right to defend some of Fianna Fáil’s/PDs achievements in health.
