Me neither, these guys are full of shit.

They are saying it a fair but alright. They must be knocking into known party supporters or something because they would get a fierce earful of abuse if they knocked at mine.

He’s imagining they are canvassing door to door to generate a reference point in gullible people’s minds that they are working really hard on the campaign trail LOL
He constantly tries to distance himself from Bertie and Cowan because they caused so much damage to this state, using his terminology they may as well have been just released from prison. He is trying desperately to distance himself from the previous government it is laughable. He should wear a funny mask and a wig, it would work better. He is a pathetic joke, as are the various farts grasping at his coattails. Disgusting people

Often FF canvassers will try to keep you chatting at the door but they send a young fellow around the back to climb in the bedroom window.

It is the type of people that the get as members.

Richie Ryan, are you implying that card carrying members like myself are thiefs by default? I sometimes worry for some peoples ability to lump all peoples into the one stereotype.

Michael Martin is popping up in some newspaper every day. Don’t be fooled as its obviously part of a strategy. They have nothing to lose and there’s no such thing as bad publicity and we need to remember FF ruined this country

What I don’t get. Is how have FF made a recovery in the polls? Everyone of the people who make up that twenty six % have relations, friends, acquaintances, work mates etc. Either they are not making it clear what a bunch of absolute buffoons FF are. Or its falling on deaf ears.

You have to, have to, have to, have to believe that the “Party of Power” have become the “Party of Protest” and that their recent gains in the polls are a reminder to Fine Gael not to become complacent. I refuse to believe this country is stupid enough to reelect them.

Richard. Certainly the 26% who vote FF’s see the damage and the hurt that they did to Ireland and their own families but they believe that they’ll be on the inside circuit when the FF criminals get in again. They do not care how that impacts on others.

€€€€€€

@ Ollie, down in Cork you’d be known as a langer.

And you in offaly a crony

Nice one…”Fianna Fail…the horsemeat of Irish politics!”
Would look great on their next posters

U are laughing at yourselves -. these FF thugs were rotten and so are FG/Lab who like FF are in pockets of the Rich . So u can vote for ??????????????.

Sell papers no , to keep the corrupt parties, so the rich men that own the media keep getting the favourable taxes and can really do what they want, media owners have their own agendas too you know. Remember one man owns most Irish main media. Media judges and government all connected.

Well, aren’t you a bitter little blue shirt again this morning, Mr Moaning Mooney.

Cal your a Blueshirt…When ????

Say it ain’t so Cal!!!!!

You just sound grubby, like your party

Cal.

Micheal Martin could not care less what happened to the Madeline women. He treated them like dirt when he was a Minister and the anger, deserved anger that those women have for him will not abate.

He really is a wretched little man.

The people of Cork obviously think otherwise.

An interview with a Fianna Fáiler full off mistruths? Never!!!

Frankie do you want numbers because i will produce them to you no problem it’s not mistruths, lets get your figures and we will see will they stand up?

Oliver Im membership Officer of the Organisation who is bigger than them! Its my job to know these things so yes I would like yer numbers published please. Ye dont even have branches in half the colleges listed there. How many recruitment days were you at? Coz I was at the major college ones and some of the smaller ones and didnt see you near any of the Ogra ones. Please enlighten me with your proof? There is also a message below from a Lorcan Nyhan who is chair of UCD YFG who can say with pride they are now larger than KBC Cumann for the 2nd year in a row

FF have reformed and the donation from O’Callaghan that ended up in the bank account of Micheal Martin’s wife was just for convenience.

ammmmmm …….. how about blowing hot air ! …well at least that’s what they did!

Bertie, Brian. Given that every FF leader for the last 40 years has had to resign in disgrace what should I do.

I liked everything apart from the FF bit.

Why do FF still exist? They shouldn’t be given any publicity! They’re a disgrace along with the current shower. We don’t need a government.

Where did you find Cowen and Bertie Mr Martin??
Down a rabbit hole??
Hiding like Saddam Hussain??
I hear they are getting plastic surgery along with Pat Neary.
I hear that they want to hide the faces that destroyed Ireland.
Tell them that Enda and Co will will be looking for a good plastic surgeon as well, after they finish off what FF started.
Cowardly, Spineless,Traitors!!!
Stoogeens!!!

And derail the gravy train?

Don’t thumb up or down that comment, ain’t worth it.

Don’t put FF and SF in the same sentence Mr FF.

That tarnishes the name of the Precursor Republican Party, Sinn Fein. Sinn Fein are progressive republicans, FF are populist treacherous leaches.

Are you for real Robert? Fell on their sword like some heroic warrior eh?
Traitors and crooks. That’s what they are.

I’d put money on it right now. At the next General Election the Irish electorate will vote these charlatans back into power. They are no better than snake oil salesmen at a carnival side show but parish pump politics, cronyism and the general naivety of Irish political thought will ensure they get their snouts in the trough once again. Kenny, of course, is also doing his damnedest to ensure this happens.

FF are looking to go into government with FG next time out. SF want nothing to do with FF …

I always seem to thread a nerve mr golden.

Cast a cold eye on your own history mr golden. FF should really be known as Irish Murder Inc. also how many people deaths are FF responsible for as a result of perpetual debt. Outrageous mr golden. A brass neck,

They voted blindly for a “deal” that is now under legal scrutiny by the E.C.B. ……. they had no reason to vote for it …they are merely the trojan horse of Fine Gael and Labour on the opposition benches ! …….. there are none so blind as those who take brown envelopes and think that the people don’t know what they are at! … party supporters included …..
Speaking of Fine Gael …I had a typo there and spelt it fine gale …and I thought …”GALE DAYS” …… wasn’t that the term for the oppressive rents back in the days of the Landlords …..
while I’m at it F. FAIL……… (no fada)
LABOUR ……. The unions are the one shower who actually don’t do any …..

wow…just wow.

Delusional waffle !

I never heard as much spin in all my life.

Just because you change your mask doesn’t mean your not the same person.

In two years you expect the public to believe you have miraculously changed? Very interesting.

@ Ollie. Just one question. If its a root and branch restructure, why are the roots and branches, ie the crooks who were there in the past, not being pruned? Restructuring does not change the ethos, people do and MM is one of old brigade. Do us a favor and keep your rhetoric for your FF cronies.

Canvassing for what, and in what way has he taken concerns on board? Please try and answer my questions, rather than taking a deep breath and coughing out empty words, which lack cogent substantial meaning. His positions haven’t changed and he has no input into government policy, so other than paying lip service to the people who’ve turned up, in what way have these meetings shown that he has REALLY taken concerns on board?
There is an innocence and willingness to trust FF in Ireland, which has repeatedly damaged our society, as it has allowed business men and vainglorious egocentric yes men to quietly control a large portion of our government. When I saw this recent poll, that is what came to mind, so if you can prove to me that this is not the case, and your words were not more empty FF waffle, please do it.

Did the FF wafflers not come out with the same speeches after Haughy was caught buying castles and islands on a state salary. Did Bertie not lead the charge on that one? Once FF, always FF

Blah blah blah blah blah blah Blah blah blah blah blah blah Blah blah blah blah blah blah …. sorry what was that????

@oliver by the way

Tell him to go spend a few days at the airport s and canvas all the young people leaving this country

You party leader should be held to account for the damage done to this state

How did Dave O’Shea manage to get an advance copy of FF’s next election manifesto !!!!!

You’re delusional Olly my boy! You’ll not get within an asses roar of government. You and all your lying, cheating and stealing cronies have destroyed our country and forced another generation to leave their homeland. And you think you’re the party to get Ireland out of the mess that you got Ireland into in the first place? You’ve some brass neck. FF will never reinvent themselves, they’ll just try to pull the wool over people’s eyes once more. They are Ireland’s disgrace. Nuff said.

You should be ashamed of yourself. Anybody who still has anything to do with Fianna Fáil has no right to call themselves Irish.
Personally, I can’t wait until they call to my door.

Leopards and spots

Ollie, your post is actually quite worrying and telling. Only a true Fianna failer could publicly state such blatant lies.

You sound just like cowen…….”the IMF are not in Ireland”……….

Fianna Fail will come to power over my one way ticket! I will NOT live in a country where you have any authority.

Top in third level colleges hahaha easy just buy them drinks for signing up #fact oh and send timmy dooley to my door,i’l hammer him again

Oliver Oliver Oliver, what what what what !! Where did you copy and paste that from a speech from your leader, how can anyone anyone support FF. what are your reasons for your die hard support, you do realise that this is the party that single handily with not a peep form the opposition at the time brought the country too it’s knees. If he really had changed he would have his two buddies ( he is still friends with these traitors) pensions taken off them for treason and abuse of their power, FF couldn’t change they will always be about self interests, brown envelopes etc. they don’t care about the people they just want the power back. I advise you Oliver don’t be so committed to one party, they did you wrong Oliver the did all of us wrong we can see it why can’t you?

“We are once again the top party in all the third level collages right across the country”. No no ye are not. You are not the largest branch in UCD, the largest University in Ireland. Just one of the many many lies in your post.

You are the party that drove us into the ground….let us never, ever forget that. I know I fkn won’t!!

Yes the gutter.

We’re we belong is right . Top of the polls. all negative Shinners writing underneath article

The Landlord’s agent of old, the informer at the Castle gates. Their type is still among us. Riding Ireland raw and telling us that we should be thankful.

@Oliver. My family were FF since they joined the free state many years ago. No more. The corruption and bank guarantee was he last straw. Republicanism has also been dead in FF since the late 40′s.

You may be brainwashed but At least you are honest in your own mind.

@Olly: I live near Ballymun. I bought a one bed apartment in 2007 for €230,000. It’s now worth €90,000. I have massive negative equity. I work ridiculous hours to try repay my dept. I have little left when I pay my bills. But I count myself lucky. I still have a job. Many others in my situation have lost everything. Their homes. Their jobs. Through being forced to emigrate, they’ve lost their right to live and work and bring up their kids in the country of their birth. So you know what you can do with your diatribe and your party? Stick ‘em up your Jackie.

Bullsh!t. FF destroyed it.

Mainly lovers of Ireland you should’ve wrote
