    But sure you can say and promise whatever you want when you know you'll never ever have to implement them.

    Just make up popular stuff. That's all he does.

    I'll say one thing like him or loathe him he seems quite passionate and determined to do whatever it is he's at.

    His drive to is admirable. Unwavering really.

    Like. Take a look at that manifesto. It's nonsensical. Every single word. Complete gibberish.

    And yet there he is. Steadfast. Battling away. Not conceding an inch.

    He has the heart of a lion.

    He has to.

    Like the boxer who is 110% outclassed but holds in there anyway fighting the good fight.

    Bravo sir. Bravo.

    After a day of intensive press coverage, Murphy's new endeavor has achieved ... wait for it ... 284 Twitter followers!

    I think it's fair to say that most people simply don't give a toss.

    If we keep it up we could have more posts on this thread than he has Twitter followers.

    I bet you are another fg voter who is ashamed to publicly own up to that fact.

    Lol you couldn't be further off the mark pal.

    And ya. I'd be very ashamed if I was.

    Illicits envy from the likes of you.
    I can sense your anger and jealousy.
    Let it go.

    Ha, I'm not jealous at all.

    I'm mostly retired in my 40s. I invest for fun these days.

    How about you?

    Not FG as you suggested.

    Very, very not FG.

    Very, very not FG.

    But I got the 'ashamed to admit it publicly' part spot on.
    If you are going to have a go at others political beliefs, and least have the courage to assert your own.

    So, no clear answer then. Thought that would be the case. And by the way, the verb is "elicts," not "illicts."

    Why not follow your own advice?

    If you're going to assert that you have a better career than the posters on this thread, at least have the courage to tell us what you do.

    Who do you vote for? If like the other fella you are ashamed to stand behind your beliefs, then toddle in back to whatever rural backwater you dwell in.

    That was in response to another poster mocking murphys supporters for not having jobs. I merely pointed out that I'm proof of the fallacy of that blatant bigotry. You seem to be getting very worked up, go invest in a good mattress and have a lie down sweetheart.

    Murphy did do the State some service by winning a seat at the expense of the Shinners.

    So you've gone from having a better career than most of us, to simply having a job?

    1 anecdotal person doesn't prove a thing. Paul Murphy's supporters have always predominantly been students, unemployed and low income service staff. The chap offers almost nothing to anyone on above the median wage bar making ideologues feel warm and fuzzy inside about 'helping the poor'

    What's it to you? You already seem quite sure of who I vote for. Your entire 'argument' has dropped to the level of assumption.

    I owe you Jack homeboy.

    How do you mean toddle in back to whatever rural backwater you dwell in? Are you trying to play mod now high flying Murphy voter?

    Actually it was in response to one of my posts. I never said high flying Murphy voters didn't have jobs.

    Hopefully there's an ambulance service in that rural hamlet of yours as you seem on the verge of a heart attack.
    You haven't the courage to put on record your political leanings, you are not worthy of any more of my time.
