    Downside is she will be back teaching. And that is frightening.

    I wouldn't think it was part of this election or something people are expecting to happen tomorrow.


    But I don't think I've ever met an irish person in my life that doesn't want it at some point.


    They'll turn up soon I'm sure.
    I feel the majority opinion is that its a nice idea but they aren't willing to pay €10,000 a year each to subsidise the North like the uke does at the moment.

    Not that peculiar, we cant afford to take on the 6 counties.
    The simplistic view that "wont they pay taxes like the rest of us" is reflective of the lack of understanding of how much it would cost us to unite.

    As an ideology im all for it, just not right now whilst our own services are a disaster and housing issues. Lets get our own house in order first without putting more burden on us

    I was replying to a poster who said he would "never" want it to happen. That most certainly is a peculiar and minority view. I never said it was a priority at this point in time for people in the Republic.

    We've high employment so that's not very many.
    One of the many flaws with FG/FF was trying to pass any problems off as being the fault of a very small minority, 'dem dat don't want to work'. While ignoring the plight of the majority who do.

    80-90% of patients I would see would be unemployed. To be fair, I work in a city centre hospital so I presume this would be less in a hospital in a more desirable area.

    Sinn Fein seat in Meath West.

    So 2 SF seats out of two seats announced.
    Toibin maybe and then FF v FG for the last seat. FG have 2 here to back up Damien English and might just have the edge.

    Martin isn't ruling out going in with Fine Gael or Sinn Fein.

    At the same time he's talking about morals and principles being important.

    Someone in Fianna Fail lying, there's a surprise.

    Anyone who voted for FF, look what you have done now, they were and always have been the dishonest party.

    They haven't change, they were and always will be frauds.

    In Galway east, Ciaran Cannon FG likely to lose his seat to running mate Pete Roche who will get alot of surplus from Sean Canney Ind and transfers from Donagh killilea FF. SF polling well despite having a candidate no one ever heard off. That's why I don't think this is a real day of change. The protest vote is a real factor. People are voting for anything labelled SF.

    Once they realise the economic suicide of it all. They'd cop on. 60% roughly of people in NI work in public sector. They are propped up by loans from Westminster. How are we going to employ all these people?

    100% children seen in the childrens hospital will be unemployed.
    Still no need to build such a large private practice into it at an enormous cost. Let private consultants build a private hospital next door, if they can afford it that is.

    Didn't take Martin long to start backing down.

    This time next week he'll be talking about how a FF/SF government would be ideal for change and it was his idea all along.

    He wants to be Taoiseach and he'll do whatever it takes to not go down as the first FF leader not to be Taoiseach.

    Why wouldn't you want to be involved with the most popular party in the state?


    The question is does the most popular party in the state want to do business with a turncoat?
