Gene Kerrigan despises anything remotely right of center

Hung Dail?

FG will push into the 30s when people see a few extra quid in their pockets after the budget.

I’m disgusted with them after the LUAS Airport joke of a decision but will probably still vote for them

948

Dunno. They are still very naive on the social issue front and a bit arrogant. I havent made up my mind yet. Might give Lucinda a twist

Is this the official view of the rainbow coalition or the personal view of one of its main beneficiaries? You werent so hung up on process and protocol when lobbying for the willy nilly reconstitution of what was the table end of your home in the mid 90s. It was the existing streetscape that got thrown under the bus then.

Who is going to take on FG for the “centre right” economic vote? FF always have a % of that regardless but they will move left to take on SF and recapture the armchair Republican vote.

There’ll be a few crumbs dropping off the edge off my table soon croppy when the next big fix goes through. I’ll make sure you’re looked after.

Ah the old “only a few rotten apples” argument. I never said that they are cunts either, just said respect is earned. The law is what you’re supposed to respect and its abundantly clear that the gardai have little respect for it them selves except when it suits them.

I’d teach my daughter to respect the law and be civil to gardai and let them earn her respect

Some soundings in Carlow today about jumping into bed with SF.
An attempt to put pressure on Martin or a delibirate attempt from FF hq to put the feelers out?

Just watching Week in Politics here.

Stephen Donnelly is a very impressive operator.
