    They’ve zero interest in governing and needing to make actual decisions on finite resources.

    Predictions of political pundits all over Ireland are in tatters now. How have the markets reacted?

    As if any sane party would even consider letting those absolute freakshows near government. 😂

  4. Being in government would take too much time away from RBB’s true passion, objecting to every single housing development in his electorate.

  5. Spoofers, Mirphy and co are full of hot air. If you dug up Lenin and Marx they’d find an excuse not to want to go into government with him …

  6. It’s a worrying indictment on the electorate that PBP loonies manage to get even one seat.

  7. PBP/Solidarity are not interested in exercising power, only having a platform to perform on.

  8. So they have ruled out a coalition with either FF or FG, they have thoroughly trashed Sinn Fein’s policies also….. So who’s left exactly??

    They never actually want to go into government, they just want to collect their hefty Dail salaries and pensions. They never want to be in a position where they might actually have to do deliver on their promises and proclamations and make excuses as to why that isn’t possible.

    They just want to make their soundbites in peace, do interviews and never get challenged on any of it.

    Cracks me up everytime when I see these guys pursuing anti-taxation policies that would make tea-partying Trumpers blush

    If you look at the far left in Ireland the one thing that quickly becomes apparent is how they utterly despise each other. At some point they have all thrown their toys out of the pram and stormed off to form their own Trotskyist party. Could you imagine being government chief whip and trying to keep them in line. Within weeks you’d be found rocking back and forth on the floor of your office gently caressing an icepick.

  11. How is this news? Nobody has ever thought they would enter a coalition with FFG. And why should they, with their goals and aims being diametrically opposed?

    Imagine what they could achieve if they put on their big boy pants and entered a coalition government. Look at how many boxes the Green’s have ticked off their agenda.
