    Possibility of a new Republican party in Ireland?

    I don't expect one to be set up, and I have no plans to set one up, but I would like to see a new Republican party in Ireland to replace the corrupt Fianna Fáil and the corrupt socialist Sinn Féin.

    Are there many other republicans out there who don't subscribe to the current 'Republican' parties and who would like to see a new party?

    Who knows, maybe down the line a new party could be formed (again, I'm not planning to set one up but I would like to see are their many others who don't subscribe to the current parties).

    How are Sinn Féin quasi Republican. Are we not the only party on this island to consistently uphold the rights of the Republican people. Who else in Ireland can claim to strive for the principles Liberty, Equality and Fraternity

    who else indeed, you gob************************e. I am a republican and they haven't stood up for my rights in quite a while. I suppose they threatened me for my own good.

    At the expense of others and many within the Republican community.

    I try not to get into several arguments on this site including, most of the time, with SF'ers over things like their track record on Liberty, Equality and Fraternity as many others remind them of their spuriousness. I prefer to debate other issues, that generally aren't covered as much.

    Lets say that for all the prats I don't like within the other political parties in the South and on this site (and I don't not like them all), I agree with them on SF.

    Now, are there other Republicans who don't subscribe to the current 'Republican' parties out there?

    And how close are the 32 CSM to achieving the Republic. Are you honestly going to claim that one of ye splinter groups are more capable of achieving independence than Sinn Féin. Also there is no need for name calling, lets keep things nice and comradely

    I doubt it, while Republicanism is undoubtedly a broad house we seem to have both "Republican" and Republican parties out there to cater for all needs and wants

    How close are SF to achieving the republic? how are they going to achieve it given that the poitics they practice subvert the republic and the Irish peoples right to national self determination.

    And how are the actions or policies of either the 32CSM or RSF upholding or advancing the Irish peoples right to national self determination. ?

    I notice the fact that you didn't amswer my question. How close we are to achieving the Republic depends almost solely on how hard we are willing to work, the fact is that the Unionist people can be persuaded into a 32 county Republic. They can certainly be persuaded much quicker than they can be froced. My politics most certainly do not subvert the Republic, again there is no need to get personal, we both have the same aspirations for our nation, we simply have different means of achieving it.
