@Juhniallio

You’re probably right. Sane people spend their time on tfk liking every single one of @Nembo_Kid’s posts.

What’s not to like?

[Ashman]

They put referees in boots of cars in Wicklow . They encourage girls to box . Donnelly will top the poll as a FFer.

Posting the same opinion for the 146th time?*

*I haven’t counted but feel this is a fair estimate.

[Nembo_Kid]

If it’s right the 1st time then it’s right the 146th time.

[Massey]

Williams will be seething in the morning id say. Cops have surely sent him on a few talking points to spin out.

[balbec]

I hope he has a spam filter.

[gilgamboa]

If he doesn’t do that the other lad won’t like all his posts back. It’s actually parish pump politics at its most basic

It could do with some editing (slightly rambling) but I wanted to get it sent while I had tthe opportunity.

Dear Stephen,

What is there to say??? I’ve admired you for a few years now. Hell, I had you at 8/1 with Paddy Powers to be elected in 2011 because I thought you were an excellent speaker and had integrity.* As a self-employed small business owner I identified with a lot of your opinions. So you can imagine my disappointment in hearing this week’s news.
You were elected by people who most certainly DIDN’T want to vote for FF. I’m sure you’ll agree with that. And yet you decided to do join FF. You’ve constantly argued that we needed something different, a new vision on which to build our society. Does FF offer that? Look at your new party’s position on water charges(to name but one example). Is that new politics or the dirty, snakelike populism they have shown down the years repeatedly. I apologise if that offends you but it used to be your opinion not too long ago as pointed out by Drivetime, and you weren’t shy about letting us, the people, know about it. Down with the old ways, jobs for the boys, etc. The FF way. So why the change of heart?
The Social Democrats polled fairly well in lots of constituencies and your 3 major TDs topped the polls. That’s a mandate. Turning your back on the people who elected you is exactly what you would expect from a FF party member; dirty, obvious, naked political opportunism.
I wonder how, having failed to make any impact with a party you designed, you think you can implement change through the the longstanding beacon of corruption that is FF? Either you have changed or you think you can change FF, which would lead me to believe that you are either extremely naive or superman. I imagine neither is the case. So in truth, your assertion that they are the party that most represent your position seems to actually be correct. I hope you enjoy your time at the Galway races.

Yours in disgust, dismay and resignation,

Juhniallio**

*This is a white lie. @RaymondCrotty posted him up as a bet and I checked him out because of that. It’s a pity Ray’s political judgement has gone to shit since he went native.
** I signed my real name

That’s some pile of scutter in fairness.

Donnelly can’t contain his delight at receiving an email from “self employed small business owner” Juhniallo.

[artfoley]

Didn’t know that supt taylor is suspended pending an investigation wile govt allow noirin to continue in her role with unfettered access to the security services

@Ashman

They put referees in boots of cars in Wicklow

True that, they should have left us at Buckley

Reminds me of this

The only other one was from this lunatic.
We called the police because it was so demented.

@Fagan_ODowd

You’re being a bit presumptuois here. They wanted to vote for FF as much as they did anyone else with the exception of FG. The vote were very evenly distributed across all the partys, between abou 8-12% with FG taking up to 30%

Of Donnelly first preference votes distributed in 2016 (2916 votes)

• Fianna Fáil picked up 12%
• SF (1 Candidate) picked up 12%
• Greens (1 Candidate) 10%
• FG picked up 30%
• Labour picked up 10%
• PBP were under 10%

[Juhniallio]

So 1 in 8 wanted FF? I’ll send on a correction so.

[croppy_boy]

1 in 8 most certainly were not against voting for FF, the same as all other parties bar FG who had a bigger share.

I’m just pointing out that they were certaonly not all against FF, which is what you suggested.

[anon61956325]

You are vile.

[balbec]

A labour party shill

[Juhniallio]

@ChocolateMice

You are vile.

You are servile, you Cork lickspittle cunt.

[anon61956325]

None of that happened.
