I don't buy the 'let them in this time in case they get in next time' argument. If a grand coalition can put a few, admittedly major, things right over 5 years they can face the electorate from a strong position. If the electorate then choose to scuttle the country then so be it.
people expecting FF/FG to deliver on there promises causes the above do you agree,Thinking? People want a massive cut in taxes and a massive increase in spending and they are thinking? Will you go 'way out of that.
Sheer stupidity caused the above. It's akin to finding that the chemo isn't curing your cancer as quickly as you'd hoped for and deciding that Crystals and Faith Healing is a better option. Thankfully there's a Darwinian outcome in that scenario.people expecting FF/FG to deliver on there promises causes the above do you agree,
So you are a Supporter of sheer stupidity aka FF/FG,Sheer stupidity caused the above. It's akin to finding that the chemo isn't curing your cancer as quickly as you'd hoped for and deciding that Crystals and Faith Healing is a better option. Thankfully there's a Darwinian outcome in that scenario.
I've asked you multiple times who you voted for. Given the reality of who is on the ballot paper who do you choose?So you are a Supporter of sheer stupidity aka FF/FG,
Absolutely! This is what I have argued and is articulated much better by Stephen Collins in today's IT.I don't buy the 'let them in this time in case they get in next time' argument.

Is the grass actually greened over there?
The metaphorical grass.What grass?
The problem is SF are still so tainted, permeated, and by all accounts controlled by a subversive element heavily and actively involved in criminal activity that many would see engaging with them as a significant backward step for a modern society to take.
The metaphorical grass.
I lost you or you just lost it?. . . . . you're losing me again . . . . well you lost me years ago!
I had planned to vote for the green party,along with Independent as the best option in my neck of the woods,I've asked you multiple times who you voted for. Given the reality of who is on the ballot paper who do you choose?
If you are not going to answer that but rather persist with the half-smart comments dressed up as cynical wisdom then you're just wasting everyone's time posting here.
You don't support FF or FG or Labour or SF or the other far left parties. Who did you vote for?
Absolutely! This is what I have argued and is articulated much better by Stephen Collins in today's IT.
It is also pointed out that the combined republican/socialist vote here is no more than 30%. The combined FF/FG vote is 43%. In the UK Labour got 32% on their Marxist platform and the Tories got 43%. Everyone over there interprets this as a thumping rejection of Marxism and a ringing endorsement of Bojo.
The SF surge was sensational, but the sensation should be put in perspective and should not be allowed to drive the consequences. The overwhelming majority reject SF/'Ra.
. . . . . all the more reason the electorate decided to protest, for once!
Interesting. Well I don't think Dublin Bay South is "left" (ask the Boss) and I don't think Dun Laoghaire is left (ask the Duke). So it is certainly problematic to count the Greens as left. (the Duke did not vote Green, I hasten to clarify). In fact is being Green not the ultimate in Bourgeois indulgence?This article by Michael Marsh, Emeritus Professor, TCD examines the left swing and what is “the left”. For instance does “left” include the Green Party?

I don't get what you mean there?
the two center parties will go into coalition togeather
