FF lies on FG ODA plans exposed

[rover]

conor lenihan wailed in a press release last week

Fine Gael ODA Bombshell
In their Manifesto Fine Gael don’t provide funds for Ireland to meet out 0.7% aid target in 2012.

Under a Fine Gael Government, Ireland would fall €500 million short of the ODA target.

as bernard allen showed that day......and as shown by mark hennessy in todays irish times.....that claim is 100% LIES

the irish times

Meanwhile, it has emerged that Fine Gael/Labour spending figures do make provision for increases in overseas development aid, despite repeated claims to the contrary by Fianna Fáil.

The figures used by the Opposition are taken from the Department of Finance's baseline projections for this year, 2008 and 2009, the department confirmed yesterday

fianna fail have made repeated claims about fine gael policies on acute beds, gardai, and overseas developmen aid. ALL of them have been shown up as lies

now that fianna fail are facing meltdown........what pathetic lies will they come out with next?

Brian didnt really know what he was on about yesterday.
He reminded me of King Canute, attempting to turn back the waves.

Everthing Bertie did in the 1990's regarding his/not his house was above board?

[jdckelly]

They do seem to have an awful habit of lying this election.

Mehole Martin tried to ply that fluff last night. I got the distinct feeling he was sitting there hoping he'd be attacked on this issue.

I just wish the electorate would grow a backbone and accept that a politician deserves a good kicking if hes up to no good instead getting all doey-eyed and feeling sorry for them.
