    I wouldn't waste my time reading Politics.ie, your brain will actually melt. Too many smalltime party hacks.

    I know quite a few Shinners (voters and supporters) and none are racist. A few of them are new Irish as well so they;d hardly be in a party with a racist voting base.

    IIRC, around 5% of working class people vote for the Shinners compared to 1% of middle class people. (They have a fairly big voting base in Dublin city for example.
