A text to Green party leader John Gormley from Mary Harney,
“The worst day in Government is still better than the best day in Opposition”
Oh to be young again
Ok what are the other options?
Are SF going to try form a government this time or do the same as last time and stand around doing nothing?
It’s so good the green party did it twice !
They might not even need the SD, just 3 or 4 independents…
Labour plus Democratic Left (a Workers Party splinter) is more accurate. The Farmer’s Party in the 1930s suffered a similar fate.
“Left” wing parties need to stop propping up right wing governments if they don’t want to alienate their core base.
People in the replies here don’t seem to realise that they don’t need anyone else. They can form a government from FF/FG and gene pool independents like Lowry, Healy-Rae, Verona Murphy etc
PDs don’t exist any more because they got practically everything they wanted.
One can only hope that their electorate will understand that when you go into a coalition with two much larger parties that you do not get to implement your manifesto but must compromise and get some of what you want instead of nothing. Nothing is what you get when you don’t go into government.
Apologies if this is a stupid question, but why don’t FF/FG have to form a coalition with SF? If those 3 got the majority of votes, why isn’t it a case of “Well, the people voted for us 3 so like it or not we have to go into government with each other”.
Also, can’t SF form a coalition with other parties to form a government themselves?
But what if ff/ff and sf all have around the same %? Won’t they have to be a three way ? Sorry idk how it works

Don’t worry they’ll get to pass 2 of their tamest policies whilst FFG continue to ruin life for anyone under 50

It’s like the SDs will actually agree to it.
