There's a Trumpian level of self delusion with the Shinners that they're the party of Collins and not a party set up to be theb political wing of terrorists.

Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
I'm still struggling to see how a government with FG and FF isn't change before you get to the Greens which aren't the same as the Greens who got a near majority FF over the line.
It's not the change 15-20% of the electorate voted for but I actually do think it is the change a lot of the Green voters voted for. At least that's my hope for this government. And that's before we get to those who didn't vote for 'change'. Which by my count is the majority.

20% voting for "change", isn't a democratic vote for "change".CM11 wrote:I'm still struggling to see how a government with FG and FF isn't change before you get to the Greens which aren't the same as the Greens who got a near majority FF over the line.

Sligo/NW is important from a connecting Ireland POV (which could reap rewards down the line) but Limerick/Cork is more important for the here and now.Liathroidigloine wrote:Not sure if that’s a fishy fishy for me but Sligo and the north west is still a priority.Duff Paddy wrote:It’s basically the last major road that badly needs doing.

Last rainbow coalition was a pretty decent government.CM11 wrote:Right, we can all get on with our lives.
Have to say I have high hopes for this government. It's a new way of doing things in Ireland but 3 strong voices in cabinet will hopefully lead to good things and the quality of ministers will be much higher than before.
I just have to find a way to tune out Mary Lou's droning voice for the next 5 years.

There’s a reason why the Shinners are strong in the Northwest. The people there feel ignored and left behind.

Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
Part of the problem with infrastructure in the NW, is the fact that NI decided to ignore any investment west of the Bann, which meant that transport corridors cut by the border, became useless. It needs a joined up approach, and I would support the western rail, and motorway to Colooney and thence Sligo.Liathroidigloine wrote:There’s a reason why the Shinners are strong in the Northwest.

One big problem is linking Derry, and Enniskillen to the national network, given the aforesaid ignoring by Stormontg. And I don't know, beyond unity, what the answer to that is.

And rural Indos to the right of Fine Gael. And not one fùcker in RTE Newstalk or anywhere else will challenge them on it.

Three gov. parties "conspired" to form a government.
They have such contempt for their own voters.
