Says it all really. A career criminal out for a guarenteed pension now his assets are looking like they will be lost in Spain. Or maybe he just doesn't want to feel like the biggest criminal in a room for 5 minutes. Saying that I probably would have voted for him over FF/ FG given the choice!

It does say it all.
I walk through the centre of Dublin each morning and evening and it’s gone to hell.
If we are depending on The Monk to pull it back from the brink, then we’ve gone to hell.

In what way has it gone to hell if you don’t mind me asking mate?

Homelessness is so evident.
What is or was the main shopping street on the northside has people sleeping in every other doorway.
Druggies at 8:00 in the morning in front of the GPO out of it with tourist across the road looking at them while waiting for their PaddyWagon tour bus.

That’s a start.

Forgive my obvious ignorance on this, haven't read the the thread since the voting (drunkipoos) but do the people of Ireland want a Sinn Fein majority, or a Fine Gael majority, and what are the reasons for each?

It’ll be same again for the next 5 years.

It seems ( roughly) SF 20% FF 20% FG 20% others taking the rest . Not sure about SF, I think maybe for voting sinn fein the only realistic alternative to 100 odd years of Fianna fail or Fianna Gael rule. The only logical reason for voting FG / FF must be your pen is magnetically drawn to it against your will at the polling station.
