    When will Sinn Fein stop abusing the word 'Change'?

    It's getting embarrassing and obnoxious at this stage. It might have fooled the electorate once but they are overdoing it now.
    When you start to sound like the Borg people will distrust you.

    The Sinn Fein PR/Spin department need to rethink the 'Change' monopoly. The other parties are starting to make fools of you.

    Do they say Change in Irish too? More pretentious stuff, don't get me started.

    It’s tired sloganeering at this stage. Very much in the mould of other nationalistic populist slogans like Make America Great Again or Get Brexit Done.

    It means nothing.

    Looks like it's going to be their mantra for this Dail. I think it only highlights their lack of ambition and ideas.

    I expect a lot of shouting as well. Maybe a few scripted ejections from the chamber.

    I agree but the sad thing is it will work.
    People are dumb.

    Well "Change" probably scored better than the other words focus groups say then asked to describe Sinn Fein in one word. Terrorists, Murderers, Marxists, Chancers, Dodgy, Dangerous, Populist etc just didn't look as good on the poster mockups.

    The reaction I'm seeing after the FF and FG victory yesterday is astounding. Non stop smearing at SF. It's like trump supporters still banging on about Hillary and Obama.

    So you can take down the "Keep the recovery going" placard or the "Every little hurts" your new bedfellows might take offence.
