On the Sinn Féin website right now are press releases:

Calling for the reopening of Al Aqsa mosque (equality - left wing).
Raising concern over Bessborough (to avoid evidence against big organisations who mistreated vulnerable residents being lost - left wing).
Challenging the Taoiseach over Jobstown allegations (taking the side of the little man - left wing).
Calling the raising of pension age to 70 ridiculous (siding with older people - left wing).
Making dedicated respite care a priority (supporting the vulnerable - left wing).
Making affordable child care and tackling child poverty key priorities (supporting the vulnerable - left wing).
Highlighting only 21% of a fund for housing people with disabilities being spent in 2016 (supporting the vulnerable - left wing).
Condemning homophobic abuse (equality - left wing).

I could go on, but what's the point... Sinn Féin actually go out and tackle issues and fight for people on a left wing basis rather than sitting in darkened rooms, trying to ignore the smell from their unwashed hair, clothes and bodies whilst arguing about who is more left wing like the waste of space Trots with their goon show representatives like Eamonn McCann, Gerry Carroll (man makes me vomit) and Richard Boyd Barrett unable to decide on what to call themselves from one day to the next.

In Government in the North they sign off on Tory austerity. . They are similar to Labour. Full of talk in opposition but do what they are told in government.
A SF government in the South would maintain 15% tax.
Being pro gay rights costs nothing. 

The problem with neoliberalism is that it is unstable. And when it crashes working class voters get shafted.

Sinn Féin blocked the Tory welfare bill so it's absolutely false that they have toed the Conservative line at every point. Maintaining the 15% tax rate is necessary if Ireland wants to compete internationally. That's realpolitik, I don't like it and I suspect most in Sinn Féin don't but the country has to attract international employers if it wants to be successful.

The Great Unwashed Juche Front of Trotskyism or whatever they're calling themselves today want a society where nobody has any responsibilities whatsoever but only have rights. Real society doesn't function like that.

Name one single thing the likes of McCann, Carroll or Boyd Barrett have achieved other than saving the nation money in terms of soap and water (un)used in their offices.

Can you list their firm policy proposals and funding?

All in the alternative budget which they publish every year and are, in fact, the only party to do so:

15% tax and membership of the euro "are realpolitik".  I am not sure.  Because they' expose the country to an unstable system in which profits are privatised and losses are socialised.

Who paid to bail out Anglo? Did any company paying tax chip.in ? Or was it the people ?
What did SF do in the North to protect voters from the next crash ?

What's your alternative Pol Pot?

I think you can do better than the Eurozone not having a bank bailout fund without needing to resort to genocide.
In 2006 56% of people in the South were members of a private pension scheme.  Today it''s 30%.
That is the system.

I think Dublin and Mayo are further apart than ever. Mayo are like George Foreman a while ago. Still being mentioned as champions but they're the WBO champions.

2 points?

Sunday Game have sank to new depths. Ranking 12 counties and then sticking camogie analysis in the middle of the programme. Then shove the qualifier matches at the end of the programme.

Do we need former players to comment and analyse games?

Has there to be always a Kerryman on every panel?

Why are there no connacht representatives anymore?

Because if you take the job you end up managing Roscommon.

Armagh v Down would have to be played in Newry. 

I wouldnt be surprised if Mayo won it.
Tyrone are a few sandwiches short of a football picnic

So kildare get tanked by the dubs and get ranked 5th out of 12. Rossies tank Galway and they are ranked 6th and 7th resp. Poor stuff lads.

For what its worth I'd say Down won't recover but Monaghan/Armagh are very capable of beating kildare

Sports lists are a joke
Who cares beyond 4 anyway?

+1.
Any oul thing will do for "bogball"

The basic problem is that in July they do not have enough time to do justice to all the games.
They need longer coverage of each game, maybe put some extended stuff on the player on a Monday and then show additional shows midweek with this content.

Well said

Apart from being not SF, what is the SDLP and that "significant number if the electorate"  for?

SF are neoliberal
The SDLP could work on that

NI is weird cos the moderate parties were eclipsed by the DUP and SF
Maybe if there is another crisis voters will flip

Nonsense, Sinn Féin are democratic socialist, Fianna Fail and Fine Gael are neoliberal.

Ff,Labour, FG, SF and the DUP all run the neoliberal agenda

SF are the same as FF and FG; usual Trot bullsh1te.

Trots would support demand, not debt

You don't know what you're talking about; pure waffle.

Justify your argument then in 150 words

Why? When it's you coming out with rubbish like SF are the same as FF and FG, SF support debt and Trot politics is about supporting demand (which I can only assume is a malapropism).

Demand focus means paying attention to  the interests of people to support things such as payrises, investment in people, public investment in projects, bank regulation  and reducing income inequality. Neoliberalism is the opposite. It focuses on debt and the short term interests of companies.
The SNP is neoliberal. So is SF.

Kildare have shown enough to suggest they'll trouble a lot of teams if they have their heads right.

The thing is that the other teams that they'll trouble are not the PROBLEM.  You just don't get it!

So, should we scrap IC football altogether? Kerry at least are getting on with the business of beating Dublin.

We are almost there in Leinster (as in scrapping IC football).  I mean celebrating a 9 point loss is now looked at as progress?

RTÉ :

"It's just the second time in 15 Leinster championship games under Jim Gavin that Dublin haven't won by at least 10 points so Kildare can take some positives from the defeat."

Maybe Leinster ex Dubs is already a B competition

It doesn't matter how good your engine is if you don't have a burst of pace.
Kildare are very fit, but it's not the type of fitness Dublin have and it's probably not the type of fitness you can train as it is largely based on innate atheltic ability.
All of Dublin's players around the middle third are like 800m runners.
They'll run all day, but they have a very high cruising speed and a burst of pace too.
Compared to them, Kildare are more like 1500m runners.
They'll run all day too against a team like Meath, but against Dublin they don't have the same high cruising speed and they don't have the same burst of pace.
This means they are constantly working at a higher relative capacity than their opponents, just to keep their head above water.
Hard to keep that up for a whole game.

Kildare have been away from the big table for 8 years. Very few teams could start performing on their first day back.  It might take a while but they should be able for it at some stage down the road.
