No more P Flynn type roads for Mayo...
Or grants for Prenty Vanity projects.
East and South is where it's at :-\
Where the numbers are. Cork elects as many TDs as Connacht while Dublin elects over twice as many.

Sure they know the westerners won't mind and will vote for them anyway. They are like bet dogs
Too many independents west of Shannon

Too many wankers west of the Shannon, chief of which are the Healy-Raes!

How's your geography, chief?

Dara Calleary was shafted completely. FF deputy leader and didn't get a senior ministry job.

Yeah, that was a big shock for him. At the cabinet table but I'd say he expected more

It shows Martin isn't just a pretty face. Calleary, and O'Callaghan especially, were just a few who were put firmly in their places.I don't know much about Calleary and his intentions to go further, if you follow me, but O'Callaghan was openly touting his chances of replacing Martin if the coalition talks failed.
Martin will need to keep an eye on the malcontents in his party but I'd say he is well able for them.

I don't know if there's many malcontents within FF. Afterall they were expected to win around 55 to 60 seats according to political analysts. If there are any, MM would be gone on 9th of February imo.

Regina Doherty to head up the Seanad having campaigned to abolish it. Laughable.

Gran Coalition is a new style for Ireland.

FF plus FG was regularly 70% + in the past but that is over.

Its called principles or having a position on something. She could have easily said No Thanks but no she is just another money grabbing useless career politician.

So your saying Martin is vindictive and is more inclined to self preservation than putting the best people in place? You seem to be quite impressed with this approach or maybe I am wrong saying that. Of all the politicians in the south I think Michael Martin is one of the least impressive I have ever witnessed.

Well done to Micheál Martin who had the pleasure of nominating the first Traveller Eileen Flynn to the Senate, one of 11 nominated,
his only non-party political nominee.
'Ms Flynn is a community development worker with the National Traveller Women's Forum.
She is also a human rights activist who has campaigned on several social issues including homelessness; same-sex marriage, abortion and hate crime.The Women's Council of Ireland and Traveller's rights campaign group Pavee Point have both hailed her appointment as "historic".
In a series of tweets after her nomination, Ms Flynn said: "I have worked all my life to break barriers and challenge inequality."
