The Political Thread

[TordelBack]

Balls.

[Hoagy]

How's the election Eire going?

[TordelBack]

They don't start the counting until 9am tomorrow.  But in the words of The Who, "meet the new boss...".

Not as exciting as the cricket, that's for sure.  But probably just as disappointing.

Fine Gael will win..no question about it. Labour may get enough to stop them having a majority. But Labour these days are no different than the other crowd so it doesn't really matter.

We are preparing for a few decades of Thatcherite misery...

I need a drink

Swapping a shower of crooks for the f'ing Blueshirts, jeebus wept.  Hitting the homebrew hard tonight.

You could always start your own party and run for office!

I think there'll be bigger crises between now and then that'll probably shake things up again and destroy the next incumbents.

I'd sooner strap dynamite to my chest.

[johnnystress]

You're probably right. The new government will be overwhelmed at the scale of the shitstorm they have to deal with, will collapse in a couple of years, or sooner, and Fianna fucking Fail will be re-elected assuring a grateful, craven people that they are the only ones who can ever look after the country

[JOE SOAP]

By then we'll be out of the EU and we'll have our fish back.

[johnnystress]

Hope they don't take the roads back

[JOE SOAP]

If they took the church back as well, it'd be a fair deal.

[johnnystress]

Angela Merkel and all would be delighted with it...so grateful that in return they might throw us a mature and open attitude to sex and sexuality
