Who is paying for all the Sinn Fein ads on Facebook at the moment? No other party is running them, they seem to spend an awful lot of money.
Hehehe. :pac:
FG spent 15 X more than them on FB ads.
FINE GAEL IS significantly outspending its rivals in the general election campaign when it comes to advertising on FacebookFigures made available through the Facebook Ad Library have shown the FG party spent more than €15,000 between promoting adverts from its own page and from Leo Varadkar’s account in the first week of campaigning.
In comparison, Fianna Fáil spent over €2,300 while Sinn Féin spent around €1,100 from 13 to 19 January.

And in 2018 Sinn Fein spent 210 thousand on advertising in the Irish presidential election, which was 210 thousand more than FG spent or FF spent (which was a bit embarrassing as Peter Casey only spent 119 thousand and wiped the floor with SF) .
Kind of makes sense given that SF is possibly the richest party in the British Isles (certainly the richest on the island of Ireland). It collects income from four different parliaments, has a large source of revenue from the US (even if they did assassinate the guy who was originally in charge of that), and they probably have other sources of income that are porbably not disclosed.
The party itself gets over €4 million a year. Their choice not to spend this capital on election advertising stemmed from the fact that they had done so piss poor in the last three public votes they had conducted.0 -

SF don't need much, their stuff is being shared like Billyo on Facebook.
Their is a political revolution taking place here through social media, FF and FG and the others in general are playing catch up with SF on this.
Their stuff isn't as cool to share.0 -

I agree with Mick Barry.
SF or any other party should not touch or even be in the same room as FG/FF.
Lie down with dogs,get up with fleas.
As the Greens/Labour found out after their stints.
However, I still believe in democracy and grown ups should make the hard decisions and put petty squabbles aside in order to run their country. Sending one party to coventry is childish in the extreme and will not do them any favours in the long run. I genuinely believe FFG will come to regret not even entering talks with the party that secured the highest number of votes after the election.
On their own heads be it

She posted that at home with her kids who have been told to self isolate after there was a case of corona virus at their school.
Not pretty enough for you? Should she have laquered on the slap to make her message more appealing?0 -
A link ? A fúcking link.
Where do you think you are ? Some amateur debating society forum ?
Seriously.
It appears so!
It has previously been debunked that NOBODY wants to speak to Sinn Fein. The poster was merely asking for proof of this claim, seeing as you made it in the first place.0 -

Yes. Seriously.
You capitalised (Kinda like shouting or doubling down) on your "NOBODY wants to go in with SF"
I presume you have some sort of proof to back that up?
Or were you just 'guessing'? :rolleyes:0 -

The formation of governments takes some time. I get the impression that there are a lot of people new to this game that have no clue whatsoever how governments are formed and how long it can take. Bless!
The relevance of post election polls is zero. There are only a few parties who can form a government together. NOBODY wants to go in with SF. The second hurdle is forgetting egos and fulfilling a government as a greater of two evils.A link ? A fúcking link.

Yes,a fuc*ing link,to back up your statement that nobody wants to go in with SF.0
