Hear hear. It'd be funny if I didn't live here.Real winner is Labour who must be laughing. They say nothing and still become the most popular party in the Country. Irish voters are mugs.
Kenny didn't have a choice. The problem for FG is that both men have strong support and therefore whatever the result, the will end up with a deeply divided party.
Yes but the alternative is Happy Gilmore and Moan Burton. Sound bites and populist economic drivel. It would be like Bertie’s Fianna Fail with the Unions pulling the strings instead of the developers (and unions). They are anti-business and innovation and think that they can tax their way out of recession.
If Labour are the largest party in the next government, would the last person to leave the country please turn out the lights?
They won't be.
They can't be - they haven't the consitiuency organisations to gain that number of seats.
Where can they win more than one seat in a constituency ? If you can name one, can you name twenty, cos that's the scale of gain they have to achieve.
Good common sense there. I'm not disappointed Bruton is making his heave, but it annoys me that it's off the back of an opinion poll.
It's pure laziness to translate opinion poll %'s into seats. Look at the lib dems!
The best you can hope for is to guage some kind of swing since the last election and then you need to go through constituency by constituency to figure what it all means in terms of seats.
There's probably an absolute upper bound of 40 labour seats no matter how well they're polling.
I'm glad Tarfhead has pointed out some common sense
the game is up.
