    I would love him to call an election. He won't though. It would also be nice to hear him say that all TDs will be taking a 20% pay cut, but I doubt we will hear that either.

    More likely with neither. The man doesn't have a plan but no, it will not be an election announcement.

    Cant see him calling an election. (Watch the Paddypower site just in case!)

    Perhaps an annoucement on public pay cuts in a State of the Union style address (This may be the Leadership that O'Dea was promising would arrive last night? ) Get us ready for a few strikes in the weeks to come....

    FF talking about yesterdays news. How fitting.

    Any danger he might say something useful? Forward looking?

    Probably be a 'Comely maidens..' speech that the FF'ers can leather their plums to...
