The accelerating fall in Sinn Féin support

The Republican Party in the US, the Labour Party in the UK, hundreds of parties around Europe, it is only Sinn Fein in Ireland who don't have a clue what they will do in government.

Why? This is the Sinn Fein thread, that is why we are talking about them.

To remain electable, Labour generally move towards the centre, it will take them a while to undo all of the damage that corbyn did (which was generally make them look somehow less able to govern than the tories).

SF have been doing the same thing and it looks like all the lefties have just started realising it.

because you're making silly statements. If you think FF or FG have everything worked and planned in advance out for their stretch in government whilst in opposition, then youre mad. Im sure though if you worked your way through the SF website theres enough articles on there to give you a general gist.

thats not what clo clo and co are looking for. they want the nitty gritty details.

Could you give me an example of say, something Labour has available in their published policy and SF dont? I always though all parties were light on detail until they get into power. even then they have to make a plan to get things to work. Im sure if you knew what policy info you wanted that wasnt available, you could contact SF and they'd get it for you. county councillors are very responsive for that kind of thing.

I would be interested in seeing who those who drop off voting for SF end up voting for ... we have a major problem if it is one of those wannabe Handmaid's Tale nutter parties ....

Let us hope that pandemic of racist stupid politics never gains power here .... Foambrain in America and Netanyahu in Israel is more than enough for the world to make the otherwise odious Putin look good ... Gemma Serena Joy and Commander Fred Waters and Dolores Cahill ... even her own given name scares me ... no thank you ....

Tell me you are a Sinn Fein online supporter without telling me you are a Sinn Fein online supporter post

No mention of policies, make a few snide comments at the other poster. Talk about fear. Tell everyone Sinn Fein will be in government

Isn't it time you changed the tactic and tried something new?

Have you anything to discuss on topic/policies or just more comments about posters? it's getting extremely boring that you seem incapable of understanding what SInn fein policies are or what the opposition parties are.

I don't need another post about fear or snide comments by the way 👍

isnt it incredible that some one making the claim that the activities of sf effected you badly would still be such an ardent supporter .

And I actually did grow up during the latter years of the troubles and remember well the near daily atrocities, I guess i had more clarity as to who was murdering and bombing and claiming it as in my name.

sf murdered their way to where they are now and reminding ye of it does and will continue to shame and embarrass ye , that seems to be why there is usually such a back lash from the "on line army" when the crimes of your past are brough up .

There's always a min to remind folks that sf are first and foremost an organized crime gang controlled by who knows which contains many people who were never brought to justice for murders bombings and other crimes and are to this day protected by sf

...

You seem to have a real hard on for all things SF, are you a councillor or even a TD for that party?

Secondly its not a given that they will be in power after the next election and there is no way of knowing if they will do grand and we will be better off.

Its kinda ironic you say other people talk bollocks when you are doing quite a bit of it yourself.

Oh and just to add I'm not a member of either FF or FG.

I think they have made recent mistakes critising the Gardai after recent riots

i also think requesting an amnesty for tv licence dodgers - like it or not it’s the law

they didn’t request a refund for payers !

I am a SF voter - I have never hid that. Who I vote for doesnt shame me. Whats an 'online supporter'? Is a SF supporter whos online also an 'online SF supporter' or does an 'online SF supporter' have some kind of special role in your world? Wouldnt that mean anyone who supports SF and is on the internet is a 'online SF supporter'? Would that apply for everyone then? Arent you an 'online supporter' of whoever you vote for?

See what I mean about you being vague about things?

Why would I have anything to discuss on SF policies? It's yourself having a hernia over those. I already asked you to define exactly what policies you are looking for and maybe then you could going looking for them yourself

Outside of that do you think Im going to read your mind, find out what policies you need details on and then go find them for you? You're afraid of SF getting into power. More power to you. Personally I dont really care what you think or who you vote for.

how was she to know Mike isnt a SF supporter?
