Ireland politics (Part 2)

I say they will have the same issue as SF in the last GE, a large first preference with no transfers available

Aontu are polling at 1% in the latest opinion polls for what it’s worth.

Polls also had a landslide yes yes vote and the shinners way out performed them in the last GE

Go ahead and knock yourself out pal.

Come here they wont get the same seats as SF did but will make serious gains from the working class areas where SF did well in the last GE. Maybe 4 or 5 seats off them.

Aontu will get fuck all. Headbangers are loud but there’s not many of them

Left of centre republicans

What have the government put forward that SF agreed with and that also lost a lot of working class votes? I know that’s kind of the perception but what specifically?

They agreed with the latest referenda for one

True that’s one alright

Aontu could have done alright in the 80’s and 90’s. They’re basically an anti abortion version of SF. Whoever floated the idea of basing a new party around that ideology was not in tune with current times, even in rural Ireland.

As I’m just waiting out the clock i had a look for potential and found 3 that fit the bill… The last is a real header who believes impregnated rape victims should be made give birth.
