What’s with Micheál Martin’s habit of scrunching up his face and elongating/over-emphasising one word in every sentence?

It’s not his fault he was born in Cork to be fair

Their spokespeople are appalling.

That egg Stephen Donnelly in Health. Michael McGrath in Finance. Darragh O’Brien in Housing. Lisa Chambers in Brexit to name a few. Fish head Dara Calleary as deputy leader. Jim O’Callaghan in Justice is about the only one with a command of his brief.

Other God bothering weirdos like Jack Chambers too. They also had a majority of TDs who opposed even having a referendum on the 8th amendment and have barely any female presence.

A crowd of halfwit backwoodsmen.

Neither landed any kind of blow, Leo shat himself on the drugs question but probably slightly better other than that

Meehall should have left politics after the smoking ban legislation. Hasnt offered one good thing since.

Who won?

  • Varadkar
  • Martin

Where’s the MLMc option? The real winner of tonight’s debate imo

I take it this debate wouldn’t be worth seeking out on player then

God no.

No. Boring and predictable.

In that case am heading over to twitter to tell me who to not vote for

I reckon both FF & FG are going to keep losing support as this goes on. There seems to be a very really protest vote growing against the establishment parties.

Is that it for leadership debates?

We need a Confidence & Supply Party.

If Pearse Doherty was running SF I think they’d have had a serious shot at being at least the second biggest party

RTÉ have another similar one and then there’s a wider one I think?

They will just end up voting for Independents whose only relevance comes from propping up said establishment parties

Eoin O Broin is probably the leader they need to really cross that divide and draw in the middle ground.

RTE have a head to head one on Prime Time next week.

Then there are two all leader debates - one on The Claire Byrne Show next Monday and one on The Tonight Show on Virgin Media. Not sure when the latter is on.

No idea. You would think there’d have to be one with MLD and a few others
