My back of a cigarette packet projections for an election in January are as follows:
FF 51
FG 47
SF 25
LAB 6
SOC DEM 3
GREEN 2
SOLIDARITY/PBP 6
INDEPENDENTS 18
I’m sure Jim will settle for pulling in a 7 figure sum every year as one of the heaviest hitting senior counsels.
Not a bad consolation prize all told .
Big campaign recently to save donaghmede library as one example. Previously Broughan /Kenny territory from a labour point of view. He’s also had 6/7 public meetings about various issues since Sept. It may be Bollox but he’s still getting posters up
So we’d be pretty much back where we started except we’d have had no effective gov for a crucial period in Brexit negotiations . All over a venial sin that I’d imagine most people either don’t understand or don’t care about.
We’re some shower of gobshites at times.

He really is. I’d suggest he’ll be way more impactful on Morning Ireland than on the Six-One

Why so?
Is it the default establishment position of “Oh look but there’s Sinn Fein!” whenever there’s a scandal ?

Mr Varadkar is due in Brussels on December 14 for a pivotal Brexit meeting to decide the future of the Northern Ireland Border. And if the Government collapses, tax cuts and social welfare hikes announced as part of last month’s Budget are unlikely to be passed in time for January.
There were cheers from Fianna Fáil TDs in the Dáil bar as their justice spokesman Jim O’Callaghan appeared on RTÉ’s ‘Six One’ news to announce: “She should go.”
Asked whether his party was prepared for an election, he said if Mrs Fitzgerald refused to step aside then “so be it”.
Guys when did Sinn Féin start worrying about the well being of members of An Garda Siochána?

Never heard of them.
Suggesting it was just a political stunt. SF guy starts talking about homelessness, health etc Dobbo asking him if that’s the case then why are you not putting the minister for health or housing to no confidence motions - saying this was just an effort to embarrass FF

Confirmation bias
Dobbo Destroyed him. I thought he might hang up at one stage. Political opportunism Dobbo called it. Of course it is but SF could not just say yeah of course it is.
It’s one of your biggest flaws mate
