    Ciaran Cuffe on the late Debate!

    Listened to the Late Debate.....Missed the live bit with Ciaran Cuffe but just heard the replay on the news.

    Now discussing the KEY issues ...political reform and education...so it seems they are the sticking points.

    talks to finish lunchtime tomorrow.....if there is no agreement ministers will resign!!..thats what he said!

    Brinksmanship and bluster. Sound and fury signifying nothing.
    The Greens got wiped in negotiation first time out.
    They'll get wiped again this time too.
    The only question is whether the grass roots buy the magic FF beans the ministers will be waving at them on Saturday or not.
    Please sign the petition to establish a national day of celebration in honour of the vision of the United Irishmen!

    FF could be pulling the biggest stunt ever. Ruin the economy, look after each other, then get out of dodge when the s_hit hits the fan.

    I heard the lot, loads of standard Green spoof. The most interesting point was, most geniune Greens have left the party, i.e. their subscriptions are not up to date, so cant vote.....

    Yep...heard that too...all the "old" members let their membership fall...and now are under the probation act...and can't vote!

    Would have to agree with the bluster comments!

    Not sure whether they have the liathroidi to do it!!

    On the plus side...they must have got their ban on fur farming!!!!...if the talks are only getting sticky now!

    No, FF wants power. FF think if the get SCAMA through that they can inflate the property bubble in time for the next election.

    They miscalculate one factor, the intelligent people who actually build the economy are gonna get out of here ASAP. So, wont be many here who want to help them inflate the bubble.....

    Apparently 500 can vote. So, 166 people decide the future for the next 20 years ( minimum)......disgrace.
