lolTrying to think how long it’s been since we had a Taoiseach who actually had Gaeilge? Is Michael D the nearest thing we have atm? Not that my spoken Irish is anything to brag about either (my worst LC subject!)

it's gonna be the tradeoff equivalent of when the greens agreed to the bank guarantee in return for closing three mink farms in donegal
anyway its been a busy week at work and a quiet week in politics, but rest assured i wouldnt let ye miss anything
fg have stayed very firm, have actually stepped up direct attacks on sf in order to leave ff the pressured candidate
sf candidates, actually under the eye of the media that were happy just to lol cordite the party during the campaign, starting to look a bit dodge
ff, the longer theyre left, are starting to develop collective nervous tics
the second captains podcast on the immediate aftermath was exceptional btw, it asked pretty much everything i wanted to hear asked and most of the answers left me better informed or thinking a little differently

Best electoral system in the woreld.
― Load up your rubber wallets (Tom D.), Thursday, 20 February 2020 19:42 (four years ago) link
Yes I did see FG piling in on the SF candidate who was antisemitic And like yes definitely fuck her out imoBut alsohmmmFG like
― hyds (gyac), Thursday, 20 February 2020 19:43 (four years ago) link
The danger isn’t that SF will have dodgy candidates, the danger is that they’ll find a few more Mary-Lous and then everyone else is fucked

lol im running to irishtown for a kickabout, i demand u unpack that at length pls fore i return
― BSC Joan Baez (darraghmac), Thursday, 20 February 2020 19:48 (four years ago) link
LolA transparently dodgy candidate, any fool in the country can see that for themselves However, the Mary Lou example is someone who has none of the previous associations and who is largely liked by much of middle Ireland. The danger is that SF select more candidates like her and then all the attacks are much harder to land. I am very tired if this doesn’t make sense
― hyds (gyac), Thursday, 20 February 2020 19:50 (four years ago) link
ah i didnt see the critical 'else', my bad
i think sf
listen surely sv has a second captains subscription ffs, anything id say is kinda redundant until a few others could pick up the numerous threads arising from this podcast

I've listened to a second captains or two, despite at best disinterest in sport, I think it might actually be a pleasant collection of accents (some of which I might not have considered pleasant previously).
but basically "I prefer my political analysis in text form, ideally as obtuse as possible"
