    There is gonna be a serious battle for the last couple of seats, Brid Smith, Joan Collins and Costello from the greens.

    Looks like Byrne will be ok, although O'Snodaigh's surplus is going to go everywhere

    Its far more sinister than that. The khaki and balaclava have been traded for smart suits, so that those same people can masquerade amongs normal people. But are still pursuing the same end.

    But Brexit is a huge issue and will be ahead of 2020
    In terms of trade and borders, its vital Ireland come out the right side of it. People unfortunately dont realise this in our country. Farms and many businesses need a good Brexit.


    A good trade deal which is dependent on the UK keeping their word.
    The EU are a grand club to heavy hit on our behalf and with our input - no worries on that front.

    Thanks so much for these.
    Surprised at Byrne.
    I think a tonne of transfers from Aengus will go to Smith and Collins could be tight

    Jesus Dessie Ellis massive first preferences.
    Will that be biggest? Or do people think Pearse Doherty!


    Possibly.

    There's a vote strategy in Donegal. Haven't seen the gombeen figures yet (due up on RTE in a few mins).

    The lads in the bank's weren't wearing khaki pants nor balaclavas either.

    You're well past your sell by date, the acts old and irrelevant now.

    I find it a bit silly that people are still going on about the Sinn Fein/IRA connection. You may as well harp on about the FG and Nazi connection.

    I find it silly that SF keep calling FG the Blueshirts.

    And the real collaborators with the Nazis were the IRA.

    Many are very much unaware of the backgrond to SF positioning itself as a party of the left. When SF/IRA was a poltically insignificant political element in the south, its IRA members came predominantly from the working/unemployed classes, who while not robbing banks or murdering people, decided they need to add a little more poltical colour to their image than just Brits Out - and so, being working class, coloured SF towards that end of the spectrum. Then, the modernists came in, saw the left ground being vacated by Lab, and said yeh, we have no politics other than a 32 county republic, so we may as well row in with that party of the left story.

    It's a fcuking protest song against Charlie's cunning plan to commemorate the black and tans for Christ sake.

    No one is affiliated with the tans these days either, but Charlie missed that memo.

    The country's not about to be overrun with lads in khaki pants and balaclavas. Cop on.

    You think the only reason theyre singing that song is a commemoration that didnt go ahead... come off it, theyll be pelting out the fields of athenry with the IRA bits in it next and youll need a new excuse for that

    You think anything that could vaugely be a right wing dog whistle is completely intentional, you get shown a direct reference to the IRA and think its an overreaction

    Ffg and rte, the media , sf have them to thank for this vote surge. If these hypocrites weren’t sitting pretty and paying two thousand a month for a one bed apartment in Dublin , like all of early risers , you think they’d be saying “ let’s take one for the team and vote fg”?! Lol! You want to go populist sf? Rte license fee abolition, do it !

    With our likely ffg coalition, they now face solving the housing issue, health or sf become likely comfortably the biggest party next election. The kick in the hole they always needed. No need to perform when the electorate only chose between tweedle **** and tweedle ****ter !
