I selected Social Democrats in that poll from earlier in the thread and I am pleased to discover that this lady will be running for us in Cork.

Finian McGrath was on the radio today saying they shouldn’t have it till after March

Finian is a bit of a gobshite. A pro smoking health campaigner.

A bit of a gowl alright

I’m going with Valentine’s Day

Watt would he know?

Why are FF desperate to have the election after Easter??? Do they just not want to canvass in the cold or dark nights??

When they were saying “no one wants an election at Christmas”…no one bar them gave a fuck. It’s one day, we’ll all vote anyway! Let them walk the roads freezing, fuck them!

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy mate Darragh O’Brien was on The Tonight Show last night shouting about holding the election after Easter.

With the RIC thing and health trolleys/waiting lists a big issue and a bit of a bloody nose for FG I’m astounded that FF haven’t just jumped at calling an election now!

Who knows what could happen between now and Easter.

Maybe Micheal doesn’t fancy meeting the Donald on St Patrick’s Day if the stars aligned for him.

FF are at nothing. They’ve basically been in government with FG so very hard to really go in on them on anything.

It makes no sense for FG to have it now, they would be far better off waiting until May at least

They’ve been getting terrible press lately, through their own fault

Unless Varadkar knows the Brexit “deal” is a complete crock and that that will become widely known by May - that’s the month of May, not the former British PM

Did they not do okay at the council elections?

Agree, they’re a fucking joke, slagging Harris and Murphy saying they’re shit at their jobs yet keeping them in government. Be interesting how the voters see that.

So why are FF wanting to leave it til after Easter??? Why are they nearly demanding it?

How do people think Labour will do

By election performances in Wexford and Cork North Central were surprisingly strong

I think their biggest problem is people just forgetting about them

I think Aodhan might be returned this time along with Nash in Louth and maybe a seat in Cork North Central

If they could get 10 seats that would be the start of the road back

Interesting. Could it take two months to realise we are in the shit, hard Brexit or soft Brexit? Is that what Martin and FF think…Christ if that came about, Charlie be looking down saying Micheal Martin is the most cunning, devious…,

Are they though

Seems to me they’re just sort of dithering and on the fence

It’s often not a particularly clever move to force a winter election

Voters are thick. I think people are generally sick of FG. Be interesting to see who can convert it.
This should be an election where someone like labour do well, but they are a shambles. SF might go well but their brand is still a bit toxic. Greens will go well in the cities but I’m not sure they’ve enough people with profile running to make any real in roads. PBP and those are dead in the water I think.
Soc Dems might go okay but the same as the greens I can’t see where they pick up the seats. Ive no idea what they stand for either other than wokeness.
You are left with FF then if you don’t want FG. I’m not sure the people are ready to go back there in massive numbers though. I think this will be a very muddy election with no clear winner.
Should be Sinn Féin’s rise, but they’ve lost ground under Mary Lou I think.
Maybe an increase in independents and Healy Raes
