A SF/ left minority govt I reckon. Iâd give them more than six months as well unless they self destruct. Not in FFGâs interest to have a GE for a few years.
Less of that now or Iâll turn it all off on you.

Fair point.
It cuts the other way though too. If youâve spent the last while extolling the virtue of respecting a core political commitment youâd be a right hypocritical fucker if you say that virtue no longer applies just because itâs politically convenient now for you.
Itâs also a bit funny that you have lads hopping like sausages for weeks saying we have to get FG out and now hoping that theyâll go in with SF because theyâve looked around and realised that gov with their leftie buddies would be like trying to herd cats.

David Cullinane did a superb job there of keeping the hardcore Sinn Fein diehards onside, youâd have to say. But given the leaking of the footage youâd assume that the movement still has an issue with touts. Iâd imagine someone will be dreading the knock on the door down Suirside tonight.
As an aside itâs quite amazing that State neglect has transformed Waterford City from a bizarre Redmondite stronghold into a Sinn Fein heartland in less than a generation.

I always thought that a large part of Waterfordâs travails stem from the clowns they elect.
Is Cullinane going to be an improvement?
He will once he calms down.
The Helvic area would have always been a republican stronghold & the stickies had a presence in the city for years

Iâm disappointed with the criticism of Emmet Kirwan on here. Thereâs very little sophistication in some people - they just shoot down anyone who speaks. It used to be you had to be properly disagreeable to get a lambasting on TFK. Now, all you need to have is some airtime. Kirwan is a decent sort.

I agree fully. Emmett is an alright sort.

They were Unionist stickies. I remember one night being woken up by the sound of gunfire in Lismore Lawn. It was a failed assassination attempt on the IRSPs SĂŠamus Costello.
Pat is really struggling with the results of this election. He hasnât a nice time of it lately.

What year was Seamus Costello killed ?? Wasnât it around north strand .
Iâd say he is looking around for someone to sue.
Anyone hear RBB on Newstalk this morning. Coleman was going berserk and RBB quitened him with a delightful 5 second pause. It put the sh!ts up Coleman and he rowed back pretty quick.
Absolutely. Someone is going to have to come in and clean up the mess that will be created by anarchists trying to govern.
