Housing was not mentioned enough during the campaign imo. It's still the main thing influencing my thoughts of leaving the country.

How long do they have to form a government before we must vote again?

Cork South Central still has two seats to fill, Coveney should get it but it looks like Buttimer could lose out to SF.

This whole thing is boring now just give us a government already. A commenter on Slugger O'Toole suggested FF are eager as possible to reach a deal as they may not have the money to effectively campaign a second election. Just an Internet commenter of course but it's still an interesting thought

It's been a while since they brought it up. Not sure who really wants such a thing at this point.

The Drumcondra address is supposedly related to arms dealing. Doubt Bertie, for all his misgivings, is into that kind of business

It's been so long I can't remember the order of my voting slip. Dumb question but can candidates who weren't In the first election present themselves for the next one (if it happens)?

Thought so. It wonder if the Soc Dems can get someone to represent in Cork South Central though tbh you can call that one with ease. Of course the media will say I'm part of the problem by voting for them and not for a majority government

Lots of outrage at the census showing that 10% of the housing pool is apparently unoccupied. Interesting number but how many of those houses are in locations that people will accept to live, homeless or not? If I'm jobless/housing list in Cork will a ghost estate down near Bantry improve my life?

Referral bonuses are a thing in every multinational. I know Apple's call centre is the holy grail for many expats as it pays 26k in the door and the conditions are alright as long as you can put up with the odd people who work there (cultists).

Why are they trying to attract people back? Aside from the health service there aren't too many labour shortages. Also, where will these people live?
