The next Government

[jimmym]

Meri, I was raised on council estates and have canvased door to door for FF in general elections.
My cousin was raised in another council estate and was a FF member and former lord mayor.
As a child my own father would drag me along to FF meetings and he was asked to run for them but declined.

These sinkholes estates you speak of are now mostly owned by former tenants.
Look outside their doors and most will have two modern cars in the driveways and the homes are all updated. Do you
think they were all SF voters?

Your constant belittling of council estates do your party no favours. I imagine that anyone reading your comments and witnessing the failures of this government will consider it a sign of arrogance and presumed untouchability. You may be doing those you support a disservice in that people believe you're echoing your party's beliefs.

You're a good bloke Meri but you need to tone it down if you want to see your party back in government.

You are correct i often walk around Ballyphehane and notice how well the houses look compared to 40 years ago,

Didn't they run 3 there once and made a balls of it.

Yes they got it wrong that time but up to a year ago you would have fancied them to have a strong chance of 3 seats, But polls and the fact a Mica
campaigner will stand has seen them play safe,

Yeah - ran 3 in 2016 and ended up with 1 and lots of blame and recriminations!! Ran 2 in 2020 and almost a full quota left behind them with both candidates home and hosed after first count......more blame and recriminations.

Like it is a binary choice.

The owners generally well past any education if they have already decided to have a savage animal running about in the first place.

"But he is great with kids"......................until he has his jaw wrapped around a child's leg.
