General Election 2020 Part 2

Public transport investment is most needed in urban areas. What do mean how can it help the homeless? Why do the two have to be linked?

Very good. Theyā€™ve been posted here a few times already. You should read the SF manifesto if youā€™d like to learn more.

House prices outside Dublin are all achievable you clown. Dublin is the capital, houses with always be expensive as long as the majority of the population wants to reside there.

Stop pretending that you can gauge the voting patterns of new entrant teachers too. You are flailing about the place with lovely vague statements but not an iota how to find them. Borrow more money?

Teachers also are happy to take a higher wage over there new entrant work colleagues but thatā€™s the governmentā€™s fault, more so than the Teaching unions of course.

Like clockwork, Tim Riggins ruins another thread.

Soā€¦ ā€˜living in a dream world and seeing what you want to seeā€™.

Thatā€™s fairly pathetic but carry on.

Okay, youā€™ve read it already but canā€™t give some short concise examples?

Why do you need to spoon-feed you? You said you were interested to learn more. All you have to do is go read a bit.

All the people should just move to outside Dublin so?

What is worse than lower tier of pay is that majority end up on contracts of a 11 hours or worse. People automatically assume that every teacher who graduates is on a 22 hour contract when the reality could not be further from the truth.

Many of their tax raising efforts are taking from hand and giving to the other.

She seems to have a big problem with FF and FG seemingly honoring their pre-election pledge not to go into coalition with IRA/SF. Maybe thereā€™s certain core values that political parties will not compromise on. A bit like IRA/SF not taking their seats in Westminster and denying the majority of their constituents who wish their elected Member of Parliament to do so, electoral representation.

A constant refrain on this forum is that rural Ireland is dying. Now weā€™re told that that people from Dublin should just move to the country! Simple as that!

Who do you think new teachers tend to vote for? New teachers are young. What were the voting patterns of the young at this election?

Classic FG style divide and conquer rhetoric. The government now apparently have nothing to do with low pay for young teachers now, despite only being in government. Why donā€™t you ask @fenwaypark if itā€™s true that older teachers dont give a shit about the pay of younger ones or donā€™t see thereā€™s a serious problem there?

Do you think thereā€™s a problem?

It is pathetic isnā€™t it
Theyd want to cop on to themselves

Telling lies about not another cent?

Stayed away from the crown?lived behind it ,mad house

I think if the FF/FG form a government then they will need to deliver on the main issues like health, housing and insurance costs. If they donā€™t and carry on as normal they will be destroyed on the general election

Health should be irrelevant in the debate. All parties have signed up to implementing Slaintecare, so in theory should all be following the same plan for the next few years

It was often said that Fine Gael were loyal to the Crown but in reality they were always loyal to the half crown.
