How are FF still on 20% support?

For the good of Irish politics Sinn Fein need to get a go

Monty Burns and Egghead have had a good few months

I see Stephen Donnelly is getting it in the neck over slainte care.

Heā€™s forgotten his most successful strategy and actually spoken on the subject. Never ends well for him

Itā€™s their time. That fella from Donegal needs to be given free rein

Why are thee so many resignations from slainte care

Poor appointments/ weak candidates selected in the first instance

Iā€™m assuming itā€™s Doherty youā€™re on about because the MacLochlann lad wonā€™t light many fires.
He was there today (thereā€™s plenty of him in it mind) struggling to lay a glove on Minister Oā€™Briain.
He was operating with a prepared script and was struggling with it. A very weak parliamentarian.

He canvassed our door in 2016 and didnā€™t even saw a word. Stood there while some fella said ā€˜This is Padhraig MacLochlainn and heā€™d like your voteā€™.

Itā€™s a shame as heā€™s very string on social issues but always appear to struggle when push comes to shove. Heā€™s been very quiet on Mica despite being from the worst affected area.

Kateā€™s bro in law dropping the knee on Varadkar.

I think thatā€™s fair enough tbh

Wont be popular, drive a few of the aulder folks closer to SF. They may end that money tree before they leave power.

SF budget proposal is out. Interesting document

One thing that jumped out was that they reckon a pandemic bonus should apply to all citizens in the form of a ā‚¬200 voucher per adult and ā‚¬100 voucher per child as well as a public holiday.

Wahey!

By my back of the envelope calculations, that would probably cost about ā‚¬900 million for the vouchers even before you get to the cost of a bank holiday. Money tree here we come
