Are SF not going to form a gubbernent?
Bizarre move. Unless itās about the money, then itās a very smart move

Unfortunately the numbers arenāt there. Not enough other parties or independents want CHANGE.

What is your point? The Irish press/media is of course in general anti-SF but the Irish press/media do not influence politics like the UK press/media does. A hysterical anti-Corbyn-like tabloid style propaganda campaign against SF both isnāt going to happen and isnāt going to work one iota. Also, SF are far more similar to the Tories and Nigel Farage - not Corbyn/Labour - in terms of how they use press/media criticism to their advantage. A much better Irish media analogy about SF is how the pro-Remain media in the UK failed to move the needle in terms of public opinion despite relentlessly reporting on the likely negative effects of Brexit.
It doesnāt have to be hysterical mate.
People wouldnāt but papers if they didnāt read them.
I was out in the car there and Pat Kenny had David Quinn on and Davidās point was that it was unfair that the people (ok 24% of them) had forgiven Sinn Fein their dark past but they still hadnāt forgiven the Church. There has to be some consistency here, some Statute of Limitations beyond which an organizations dark past is deemed forgiven.

Its time to put all this auld craic behind us. They were different times.
A fair point ā¦ But the church has had about 1500 years at itā¦ weāre as far out of the troubles now as they lasted for so maybe that might be fair for the church ? - So say in or around the year 3400.
What sort of success has the Irish media had over say the last 20 years in vilifying Sinn Fein?
Oh captain! my captain!
Sheās obviously flat out trying to get this Government of the left over the line
