Spare us the pearl-clutching man. The government tried to pull an obvious stroke and it was angrily rejected. Dressing it up as anything else is pretty pathetic

Well it is something else. i don't think it's actually a stroke as the constitution seems to allow for it. In either case, it was agreed that clarification and a resolution would be sought before the first sitting of the new Dail. That was agreed by all parties. Some TDs reneged on that agreement and caused the embarrassing scenes we saw yesterday. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5228 - 23/01/2025 14:37:40 2587148 Link 0 |
No. What part of my post suggests I might be?

He clearly is. Like his father and his grandfather before him etc. etc. That's how the staunch FFG operate. Blindly follow what came before them because they haven't the capacity to think for themselves. peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 1082 - 23/01/2025 14:44:17 2587150 Link 0 |
Sinn Fein are like the Trump cultists in America. Shameful scenes yesterday, the boys in Belfast must have had a word to their TDs in Dublin. bad.monkey (USA) - Posts: 4644 - 23/01/2025 15:30:13 2587159 Link 2 |
What we saw yesterday wasn't anywhere near as bad as you want it to be

My posts aren't really focusing on the rights or wrongs of the attempt by the independents to have speaking time. The constitution seems to allow for it but I can obviously see the issue. That's why it was agreed that the next 2 weeks would be used to seek legal clarification on the matter. The problem I have is that hijacking the Dail order of business yesterday, and the manner in which it was done and pre-orchestrated, was totally wrong. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5228 - 23/01/2025 16:17:40 2587168 Link 0 |
Labour, SDs, PBP, Independents Ireland were all equally as focal in their staunch opposition yesterday as well. But hey, don't let facts get in the way of whatever fairytale you've dreamt up. peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 1082 - 23/01/2025 16:20:10 2587169 Link 1 |
Says the guy who claims to know which way I voted (you were wrong about that) and which way my father voted (wrong about that too).

Were you as bitter when ANTIFA and BLM got away with burning down cities during their "mostly peaceful protests"?

SF and the rest of the opposition were totally correct in what they done yesterday…. The arrogance of FF/FG was laid bare… Fair play to them for putting Harris and Martin firmly in their place… FF/FG have done absolutely nothing with regards to housing or health for the last 5 years yet had the arrogance to want people sitting in opposition to try and take up time on those trying to hold them to account… they are a shameful bunch …!

Trump to release JFK, RFK, MLK assassination files. Finally some real transparency. Trump2020 (Galway) - Posts: 2294 - 23/01/2025 17:47:33 2587189 Link 0 |
I might be wrong but there doesn't seem to be to many ministers appointed outside of Leinster..I've always thought this crowd can't see beyond the Ted cow roundabout.. CTGAA10 (Limerick) - Posts: 2425 - 23/01/2025 18:00:04 2587192 Link 1 |
I have no intention of getting into this pro or anti discussion other than to note that to me, that it always seems to be " them versus us". No matter what one side brings up about the other, straight away there is a list of transgressions trotted out to apparently justify whatever. It reminds me of children in the schoolyard. Like I said earlier comedic, if it wasn't so serious. It could almost be said tragic, rather than comedic.
