This probably makes Sinn Fein look much cooler than they are.

kustomkarkommando posted:Also add Saoirse McHugh to the list of people who should be elected along with Gary Gannon imo She's great, you should vote for her. What's the projected outcome anyway? Another FF / FG coalition or is that not happening again? Would SF prop up those 2 or is it one of them plus whatever small party support they can cobble together?

mehall posted:Most people I've spoken to basically expect FF and FG to swap places, pretty much. But with the expectation that they'd support each other, I assume?

Thanks for the breakdowns, I know answering this poo poo for foreigners can get tiresome sometimes.

How strict are the parties in Ireland wrt removing the whip-equivalent? If the greens go into coalition with FF/FG and that nice lady from the first page doesn't vote with them is she likely to get booted? Though I gather being an independent in Ireland isn't the career ender it is in the UK since some of them actually get elected?

kustomkarkommando posted:Yeah the whip in Irish parties is pretty drat strong and a lot less forgiving than the UK, the Dail doesn't really have backbench party rebels like Westminster as rather than having three levels of whips theres just one - usually you vote against the party line and you get expelled from the parliamentary party immediately, even abstaining without permission is extremely dodgy. I was more thinking voting for the coalition but not any poo poo policies. Are the whips usually applied formally in votes or just taken as standard that you'll vote with the party? If the former, then how often? Just big votes or "everything gently caress you". Just wondering what the wiggle room is. Not that it matters really, no party will tolerate someone playing silly buggers unless it's a strategy to appear to not go along with the coalition's worst bits while stoll waving them through.

Personally I like Renua's bird/three different coloured chillis logo.

lemonadesweetheart posted:Pretty sure SF ran more candidates in the last election and it definitely ended up hurting them. Out of curiosity, how? Do people not give all their top ranks to the same party? That's wild if you want those guys to get in. And even if they don't, can the party not publish a guide to who should get 1st preference out of their candidates?

Blut posted:None of this has happened in countries that opened schools. You're literally talking in "well this could happen, this might happen, we don't know if this will happen". But we have many many countries that have had schools open for months now, where literally none of this happened. And other countries, like Israel, that have similar class sizes to Ireland have opened and had massive spikes. Maybe.. This isn't super simple but opening schools is still very dangerous??

The Question IRL posted:So the way it is going and with all the fuss when the Government was formed back in the end of June, I'd say that some TD from West of the Shannon is sitting in a room with pictures of all the Ministers and has started drawing red symbols through them one by one. Honestly? Leo wouldn't shock me.
