    Do I still have to get up and go to work in the morning?

    I'm already up. I'm one of the people who get up early in the morning.

    Yes, you have to work so we can tax you to pay those who shouldn't have don't want to

    I got fed up with RTE player but last I heard he's out, what's the latest?

    Thoughts are with the family of Maurice McCabe tonight, and all victims of IRA. Shame on anyone who voted for Sinn Fein, you vote for scum, don’t complain when you get poor government.

    SF didn't run in my area.
    Will definitely vote for them next time if they do.

    Small hole in your theory being that the media are so anti SF it’s laughable. FG and FF are just incredibly unlikeable. They come across as arrogant, smug, elitist and aloof which is why they’re getting the woodshed from the electorate.


    Did i say that the media are pro-SF? No, i didn't.


    The media likes to tell people in this country that they are hard done by because they realised during the recession that misery and sob stories sell.


    SF just glommed onto this because they realised that the public still thinks that things are bad despite us being one of the strongest economies on the planet.

    Because the media has told people in one of the most wealthy and stable nations in the world that they are living in a thrid world hellhole.

    The average Irish citizen (working or unemployed) has a far higher standard of living than the vast majority of people on this planet.

    The problem is for all the stability and wealth we have huge glaring problems, in health, education, and housing.

    The outcome if you are able bodied generally is ok but as called out many times before if you require help or are vulnerable services are very poor.

    Shocking if true as he usually does well with the grass roots, must be mega pissed off in Donegal for that outcome having said that Pierce Doherty is quite formidable and works a lot with the community so maybe the old guard is falling.

    The thing is for allot of people its still as bad, the health services for example in laois for children with special needs has 5+ year waiting lists for urgent services.

    My own father recently became disabled after 40-odd years in the workforce and he and all of my family are taken aback by how well supported we've been both financially and from a point of view of access to services/assistance.

    LMAO at the number of votes won't fit on the screen (RTE)


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,664 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    Do I still have to get up and go to work in the morning?

    Yes you do, along with all the under 65 workers who voted for SF in huge numbers

    I was looking and I found some detail on wind farms, Pat also had a lot of kind words for SF and then found pats wife had served 10 years for explosives and had blew up a house. His wife was basically a terrorist.

    If you're in the FG spin unit probably not.

    Consider yourself lucky, back in 2014 we couldn't even get speach and language or physio for our 4 year old.

    No. He just said there that when what he had said arrived in Dublin he was open to it. Wasn't what he meant.

    But his position now is 'talk to everyone' etc etc. Basically echoing O'Cuiv

    The Mask slipped with SF with Gerry Adams wearing his Antrim jersey today on TV. They want their 32 county republic. Likes hide it all away. SF up north are populists in the ilk of farage. They don't deserve any real republican vote. If they want the republican lifestyle, move south of the border. They won't though as they realise how good they have it at been at the teet of the UK.

    In 2020 we get 3 hours home help per week for an autistc, aggressive, non verbal 10 year old. No respite anymore and no info on potential residential care in the future.

    Things havent improved.

    Because they probably weren't needed.


    You don't want to hear that but it's more than likely the reason.
