Can we just skip the canvassing and voting part to another 5 years of Fianna Fail/Gael?

Not really an own goal is it? I find him a total p***k but he is the leader of the country, whats wrong with having him on?

He does talk some shite.

Giving 1 party extra publicity when they already get free reign on mainstream media, look at the reaction to it on their social media

He's the Taoiseach and represents the entire country and not FF. No election has been called yet, so don't see the issue.

They didn't call him out half enough on the total shite and propaganda he spouted, but I suppose it's not their place. Should have Mary Lou and Meehole on

Eugene could fck it up on FF and with FG fielding 2 nobodies he could sneak in.
He'll no doubt be playing the Primrose and blue card.
Already saying he's put County before Party.

Should the taoiseach not be on mainstream media?

To enforce democracy, keep a check on extremes from emerging and give every citizen eligible to vote an equal say in the direction of the nation.
