What will CC say about peace having broken out in Gaza?

I hope nothing as crass and childish as this anyway

[Dag Dog]

What will CC say about peace having broken out in Gaza?

There is famine. Israel murdered over 100,000 people. She's more likely to focus on that.
Peace without justice is meaningless.

She keeps shouting for peace at all costs in 'The Ukraine'. There won't be justice there at that rate.

Presidential candidate Catherine Connolly has said Fine Gael are "absolutely scared" of the momentum behind her campaign.

If Catherine Connolly and those with a similar mindset had gotten their wishes with regard to military aid, Ukraine would have been obliterated long ago.

Like Gaza? with the support of those with a FG/FF mindset?

Jim Gavin's posters are still up.

Yes, exactly like Gaza and exactly like the areas of Ukraine that look like Gaza thanks to the Russians.

So, she's not that much different from those of a FF/FG mindset that were/are completely indifferent/useless to the plight of Gazans? That what you're saying? Think I might agree with you there.

Glad we're making progress.

Jim Gavin's posters are still up.

Unlikely, but what happens if he wins?

[Rossfan]

He'll thanks the people for voting for him and take the job in accordance with the peoples' wishes?

[Truthsayer]

No doubt who RTÉ, Irish Daily Mirror and other media outlets are backing judging by their headlines and soundbites on social media. Trying to do same job on Catherine Connolly that the English media did on Jeremy Corbyn... and that bias drip-drip approach does get into people's minds...
Add the Independent to that... wtf!
Headline:
"Debate sparks fly as Heather Humphreys links Catherine Connolly to Neville Chamberlain's 1930s appeasement of Hitler.."

[Baile Brigín 2]

it's not as if the southern electorate have ever shown any distain for the OO before now.



 

Yeah, we constantly vote them in...

The f**k does that even mean

Presumably. Would be a dead rubber from day 1, but could be an inspired tactic. Home for a cuppa while the other two slit each other's throats. Don't bother with the campaigning bit, dump the party who backed him in the shite and still get the gig. That's the tactical nous the Hill came to love.

[Bord na Mona man]

Connolly's constant refrain that Ireland must use its voice to promote peace.
We seem to have a massively overinflated perception that anyone actually listens to us.
