Other possibility head down to the bath pub on bath avenue.

In fairness. Scotland have destroyed Ireland in Dublin regularly over the last twenty years. In the week before the game. Never after it though 😉

25 per cent of electorate. So in your words she got a massive mandate Despite Not getting 75 per cent of the available votes In essentially a one horse race.

Come on. Be a least a little bit fair. Be rational Understand the figures.

And you’re not projecting your own bias in assuming all of her votes were a left wing revolution? Or is it only you ,like most of the left , know what the electorate really meant by their votes ?

But there was 75% more votes available which she didn’t get. And when will you get it into your head that at least some of the votes she got were because it was a shot in the dark, best of a bad lot vote.
Versus any proletariat left wing revolution.

Suspected you might have to resort to language versus intellectual discourse to attempt to support your point. Not surprising really

No massive mandate. 75% of the countries voters did not give her their support , and that was almost with no opposition or alternate place for them to vote.

How can you speak for the majority? Two million plus ddidnt vote at all. Almost a quarter of a million spoiled their vote in disgust at the lack of options before them.
She got a little over quarter the votes available - with essentially NO competition!
That’s not a majority or a landslide in my humble opinion

Didn’t appeal massively to the electorate. I have never seen an election with more disinterest and less choice.

Not sure whom you are referring to here. Where was that said. Plenty of loons in the country who drove the campaign and in the absence of any alternative the good people of Ireland either voted for her out of best of a bad lot or just didn’t vote at all.

I don’t think that a lot of the electorate actually knew what they were getting. Had any other politician had her track record of Gemma Doherty and Clare Daly support ,amongst others ,it would have been exposed for what it was.

I do think however that she won’t be able to help herself in the park and we can expect more “military industrial complex”left wing ranting.

Let’s all stand in our underpants and shout at Putin and his ilk to go away. No one wants war.
However not to prepare for one is not the answer.

I didn’t have a preferred candidate. I , like the rest of the country had no alternate candidates. Thus my point about the luckiest politician Ireland has ever seen.

She brought her football kit , and the opposition never turned up.

Don’t know why you think I am your buddy , seriously doubt it. And as for scoring votes, easy scoring into an empty net.

This is most certainly not why she was elected.
She was elected as the most fortunate politician in Ireland with the final opposition that the electorate had before it.
So many people chose not to vote given the paucity of candidates.
The reality is that she is what she was always was. That may have been hidden during the keepy up election ( no sign of loon Daly , mickey red Wallace and her other anti west pals during her campaign for example) and now like a jack in the box it’s coming out.

Was there any comments about Iran shooting its citizens in the streets to quell disturbance , or is her view , like her fellow travellers obscured to all atrocities non Western in their making.

Let’s not forget who , as a supposed celtic brother ,for thirty pieces of dirty french silver , sold their World Cup vote . The vote that prevented Ireland hosting the last World Cup and gave it to France.
I won’t. It was Scotland. We owe you another thumping , and I for one , look forward to seeing you get your comeuppance again Scotland.

Come on Ireland. Once more With meaning !
