Zelensky coming under pressure after anti corruption reforms,has taken to hinting at an offensive,but nothing exists to suggest they can underpin one now Meanwhile the Russians have taken to pocket attacks, funneling small numbers through holes in front line defence,and attacking from behind/taking ...

Simple fact is, it's not the number of votes you get but the number os seats you win and you can't win the seats without the candidates. In 2020 SF did win the highest no of votes of any one party, but they didn't win a majority of votes of all the parties. Furthermore, they didn't put forward enou...

Where is the lie in it.....or will Marxists do their usual thing of running from facts,they dislike ,while throwing barbs at the content first?…login to view the rest of this post

It can't happen because they are too stupid to learn the system they created or are a part of. It's all on the Internet people can't keep blaming schools or the gubbermint why they refuse to inform themselves of history or the electoral system. Determined to be uninformed more like. too stupid to l...

More like their stupidity won't allow it. Other parties have been in and out of govt. Saying it can't happen is like trying to claim the earth is flat. It can't happen, simply because the establishment won't allow it.... Much like we aren't allowed question anything here,only be beat down into acce...

Rubbish, if Sinn Féin get enough votes of course they'll get their bums on the seats. They were doing well and then lost their way electorally, whoever mandates policy in the background, has got their messaging very wrong. They need to become a Nationalist party with a capital N. They need to reach...

I see our esteemed president got around to calling for military intervention in Gaza. Just as the Knesset decide to annex the place. Too little too late Micky-D! Things are badly fcked,when micheal-D,him with one foot in the grave,is the only politician offering achievable solutions to ending a gen...

They are failing to get into govt. Just are you are failing (refusing) to understand the electoral system. You can't win a relay race by coming first without the baton. They won't ever be allowed into power here,the establishment simply won't allow it There is no set of circumstances,where people a...

Well ye voted the greens in and out. That was "different". Aye,they promised ubi and legalise weed....and achieved fcuk all of their manifesto....only to tax the poor,to renovate the houses of the rich and establishment landlords.....wonder how many billions of the carbon tax has gone to ...

And they didn't get the most votes in the last election. Or seats. Or a coalition partner. Kinda hitting every branch on the political fail tree here. If the objective is to get into govt. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c3gg85en299o They aren't allowed in government, The last veneer of free stat...

Even SF realize they've failed in opposition... https://www.breakingnews.ie/ireland/sinn-fein-being-blamed-for-governments-immigration-failures-mcdonald-1633491.html They aren't allowed into government,under any circumstances,I can guarantee yous 100% the establishment will never allow anyone else ...

Sinn Féin went down the tubes in the last election down South when they forgot just who they represent and where their core vote is. There's a lot of simmering resentment in this vote about the open borders for asylum seekers and refugees. And Sinn Féin were far too supportive of this incoming flow...

Because number of members isn't how you get into govt. Tells us neither SF or yourselves know how elections work. Which is ironic since they created the system and are part of the establishment. Ironic because you keep pointing out these failures and wondering why failures aren't getting them into ...

SF are part of the establishment. They are part of the system. They are just very bad at it. Not running enough candidates is a classic example. They sit on things like the PAC. They've already been in govt. They didn't get the most votes in 2024. Complaining over and over about 2020 is like Englan...

Has John Brady actually made any difference to the PAC, since he has been the chairperson. He has made references to accountability for government wastage , but it looks like PAC has no real power to make anyone accountable. The government aren't going to allow accountability,they've gotten too use...

You need to look at the north to see how SF fair in govt and immigration policies. How it has managed spending there vs it's rhetoric in the South. Maybe Elon could come in and sort it out. You can't keep blaming people who aren't allowed into government,for the state of the country..... Who needs ...

How is it on the national broadcaster, national media, if they aren't allowed to mention it. https://www.rte.ie/archives/2022/0302/1283940-ireland-a-corrupt-country/ https://www.rte.ie/news/investigations-unit/2022/0323/1287882-council-chamber-secrets-local-authorities/ https://www.irishexaminer.co...

..hence why we aren't allowed vote for anyone outside the establishment Can you explain this? Because I can vote for whoever I want and so can everyone else in the country? Yous can vote for em alright,but noone outside the establishment is allowed into government here,even if they get the most vot...

It's probably owned by SF. Didn't they have the largest property empire of all the parties. Couldn't tell ya pal,they aren't allowed into government so don't particularly follow em,if they are profiting and linked to ipas,they are every bit as corrupt as the establishment We're spending billions up...

So what you're saying is everything here is corrupt. Including SF. I'm saying,look at who's profiting off this mess,and their links by blood, business,friendship and marriage to the establishment....and you'll understand why we aren't allowed have anyone else in government The whole thing from bike...

SF effectively created FF and FG, and by association the current political system. The establishment is SF. And now they aren't allowed into government,what does this tell you, about how bad things are here?? The establishment bring in immigrants to dump them on the streets as a stop gap,while they...

I've seen lots of different govt. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_cabinets_since_1919 The facts don't support your theory. SF have been one of the weakest parties I've ever seen in my lifetime as opposition. While individual members might make great points. The party itself, the policies are a ...

SF didn't run enough candidates as a result couldn't win enough seats. Simple as that. Otherwise they had it won. Kinda hard to blame anyone other than themselves for that one. Since then they had a number of controversies and tbh kinda faded from their peak. I can guarantee you 100% they would nev...

Off the top of my head without thinking hard, The new popular front in France last year and much closer to home, FF/Eamon de valera in 1948 & 1954, FF/Jack Lynch in 1973, FF/Charles J Haughey in June 1981 & November 1982. Are you not the least bit perturbed,that 3 of your 4 examples are fro...

You seriously need to brush up on basic Junior cert level CSPE. There nothing inaccurate in that,Ireland is likely the most corrupt country in Europe,the notion the establishment will ever allow anyone else rule the country is failure of concept, should been confirmed beyond any doubt after they lo...
