This isn't a dig at FG at all, its a genuine question. I understand -at least I think I do- what motivates people to get involved in the other parties but not Fine Gael. So I would just like to ask all FGers what exactly it is that they like about their party, and in particular, why do they support FG and not Fianna Fail?

It supplies an answer to that question, from me at least.
FFS. This is just one of those "are FG irrelevent?" threads in disguise...

There is an art to getting free booze at an FF Ard Fheis. Mine involves claiming i'm from the constituency of whatever TD I see. Survival of the devious!
