    Very close to what I predicted. I wonder now will FG finally realise that their fixation with Bertiegate is helping FF and hurting them?

    BTW is there anything in it about Lisbon?

    So in affect no change.

    And the change from the GE is

    FF 37 - 4
    FG 31 + 4
    Lab 10 n/c
    SF 8 -1
    GP 7 + 2
    PD 2 n/c
    Ind n/c

    Not as interesting as I hoped, but we've closed the gap by 8 points in 10 months.
    By 2020, 12.75Lts of petrol will cost you just under €30, today it will cost you €16.42 exactly.

    FT, FF are down 4% from their election performance in that poll. FG are up 4% from theirs. If, despite that, Bertiegate is actually HURTING FG (your theory, not mine), then why are FG up at historic, 26-year highs of over 30%, in FIVE POLLS IN A ROW, if Bertiegate is harming them?

    Kindly answer the question.

    The majority cannot therefore be the elite.

    But you are down since the last poll. That after months of harrassing Bertie over the Tribunal and FF support has gone up, can't your party take the hint and lay off and let the Tribunal come to its own conclusions?

    You were also over 30% in a few polls in the start of the election campaign and it proved remarkably soft by the time of polling-day when you fell back to 27%. So forgive me if I am decidedly unimpressed.

    do those figures represent a swing of eight points since May07 between FF and FG. Still fairly crap for FF despite the increase. It shows nothing has changed but that there is a few percent out there who are outside FF's core but still favour them over FG.
    We need to radically change every system that has enabled the wholesale destruction of the Irish landscape, rural and urban. There is no time for incremental step by step measures. The systems have failed utterly and the only hope for a real recovery requires the rule book to be torn up completely.

    In fairness tonys he/she was referring most likely to the fact that any changes are within the margin of error.

    What Tribunal?
    The only way to change the world is to win elections.

    If those are the results of the poll and FG can make no more progress than that when all kinds of sh[size=7]1[/size]t are being thrown at FF & Bertie, then your goose is cooked, permanently.
