Move over Michael O Leary. Mary Lou should be running the country
There really has to be another election ASAP
Hard to know if this is FG lads getting ahead of themselves or if theyâre just hopping balls with FF and the Greens as coalition talks approach crunch time
Thread has constituency breakout
While it may indicate a big gain for fg, if it pans out that way and assuming they still wont talk to sf, weâre really no clearer then we are today. Fg would still need the full support of labour, the greens and a few independents.
And it wouldnât turn out that way.
Gas fuckers
As is pointed out, itâs entirely possible theyâll be fighting a leadership campaign in the middle of a general election and at the very least it casts a pall over the current negotiations
Mary Regan did a report tonight on this and the whole thing seems bizarre
The political journos will pump it for all itâs worth rather than calling out the stupidity of it
Eamon Ryan is a shite leader, seems a nice bloke but he is out of his depth. The greens need to shove him

True in the main but Mary seemed to suggest that CM sent a letter to 100 odd members of the GP saying she was contesting the leadership but would not be canvassing or doing a manifesto . Sounded nuts
Martin will struggle to sell the programme or himself indeed to the FF die-hards.
Hard to see such a hotch-potch securing >50% approval.
We should, by right, have another GE in early September, it would provide some form of a blood letting contest in advance of âthe championshipâ.
Michael Martinâs OIUTF musings could well have secured him the first @Batigol FF vote in many years
Ryan comes across as a complete space cadet to be honest. Outside of him most people wouldnât have a notion who the other TDs they have are. I do like the cut of Leddinâs jib, the little Iâve seen of him, seems in touch with reality at least.
Will dev jr go for a power grab? I can see him lead the vote to reject this
From the wrong generation IMO. A younger, action-man type figurehead is required to reinvent and re-energising a flagging organisation. Is such a figure there in the ranksâŚ
Weâre beat actually. Weâll stagger along for another decade before becoming totally irrelevant as the country embrace Green ideals. Yeâll be all atinâ lettuce and riding bikes.
The civil war parties will be replaced by 2.different versions of Greens, those mentioned above and the other Greens, those providing free gaffs and âŹ516 pw rock n roll⌠SelectâŚ
