    How well do you know Ireland's most corrupt and incompetent political party?

    http://www.quizazz.com/quiz.php/825582/Fianna-Downfall-Quiz/

    Funny until you realise it's all true and just how many names are involved.


    My Score :o Too many things on the list
    Though mature recollection kicked in when I saw the answers at the end. Scary stuff
    53%

    You answered 17 out of 32 questions correctly

    You know a brown envelope when you see one


    This stuff is all in the public record so I can't see how anyone can still honestly support them, unless there are any FF supporters who would like to clear things up muddy the water.

    Why?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,732 ✭✭✭Toby Take a Bow


    Why?

    Communists and terrorists, I bet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 128 ✭✭ShaneMc2012

    You're right for Labour but I don't think Sinn Fein are terrorists.. Just don't like them :P

    Labour are probably less left-wing than the British Labour Party!

    While I'm sure they're not squeaky clean, I'm also sure they don't have the endemic culture of corruption that Fianna Fáil do.

    As for Sinn Féin not being terrorists: well, if they're not, then they're certainly good friends with terrorists :).

    I don't like Labour as I just don't believe in giving away our tax money to the pajama brigade... I'm sure everyone else is the same! As for Sinn Fein... there's too little of them in government to really have an opinion about but on the other hand I don't like Fine Gael simply because Enda Kenny looks very sly and smug. There's no political party for me i suppose :P

    Labour and FG are just as bad, the only difference is that they haven't had as much time in power as FF.

    Please never vote again.

    Nope, some of us aren't. D'ya prefer giving money away to tha banking sector? Because that's where Fianna Fáil took us.

    56%, and a profound sense of depression that the cute fckin' hoors got away with it for so long.

    Cac bo. FF are in a league of their own when it comes to corruption.

    Its come to the stage where all of them are as corrupt as the last so it'll be the independents getting my vote or I wont vote at all! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,784 ✭✭✭Superbus


    65%, solid C; you'd take that.

    Half the ones I got wrong were underestimating just how corrupt they were.

    Thats the FF percentage vote in 2007 when we knew Bertie was up to his b******* in corruption.
    We only have ourselves to blame....

    It is amazing really. Fianna Fail get slaughtered and yet Sinn Fein don't when they have been linked to all sorts. Including the Northern Bank robbery which stole millions.

    I didn't and I am proud of it, I was actually one of the only people who voted the PDs in the first time because I knew they would do a great job on keeping the house in order, then when that didn't work voted in the vastly renouned Green party, the only party with branches across Europe because I knew they would keep the house in order.

    Only got 65%. They're worse than I thought.

    "We all voted for Fianna Fail a decade ago and have no ideas about economics but gee it sure is fun to make fun of the now"
    Maybe one person in five or six voted for them, given turnout and so on. Less in fact since some people can't vote yet, so what, one in ten? Cheers you 10%, well done.

    +1

    if only other Irish people thought the same it doesn't matter if it's FF-FG-Lab-SF they are all equally as bad as each other and it's time people realised this, it's only Independents or maybe United Left Alliance who will get my vote, i might not agree with absolutely everything they say but you won't see them bailing bankers out while the country disintegrates around them, a coalition of Independents could run the country far better than these inept corrupt cu*ts in charge!!


    Oh yeah i got 43% for the record:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 65 ✭✭macscoob

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,159 ✭✭✭stinkle


    71% - the questions I got wrong were the ones that underestimated their crookedness
