For a party so strong on law and order, you’d have thought that Fine Gael would have stood full square behind a candidate with a specialism and interest in international terrorism. That’s two specialists on the subject now that Fine Gael have spurned in Wexford and Tipperary.
Imagine John Mullane in the count-centre on election night, talking 100 miles an hour on RTE about each count -
“That’s an un-be-lie-vable turnout, Waterford’s never seen anything like this ever before, I can’t wait for the next count, this is edge of the seat shtuff…”
there was some shinner on morning ireland earlier ( doh) who claimed that Varadkaar is giving tax breaks to high earners - fine by me - issue closed
anyway on the the shinners - there is nothing more ridiculous than having an individual with a strong dublin accent talking about his party’s role in northern politics - if anyone find audrey carvill’s atrociously executed interview with the shinner c. 7-45 this morning take a listen, She lead with asking him questions about the health service in NI, NI nurses, UK rates, powersharing with the DUP, yer man stuttered away reading off what was on the sheet in front of him but it served him no purpose and Carvill’s questions were pointless as im assuming the electorate couldnt give a clean fuck about Sally from Limavaddy and her rates…
Its cringe from SF tho hearing their southern contingent comment on NI affairs, i understand they have this bshit about not recognising the border but jesus they recognise it enough to acknowledge the jurisdiction needs a seperate assembly.
there are many ways to destoy a shinner and carvill tried to use their failing in NI as a lead - just ask them outright what their policies are on the health crisis and they’ll fold as they have none
