    Do all the Labour leadership care about the future of the Irish Labour Party?

    Now with Labour at 11% in the polls, is it time for the genuine Labour membership to open their eyes and realise the calibre of people leading the party. Eamonn Gilmore and Pat Rabbitte have used and destroyed Political parties in the past, so as to further their careers. They have proved they have no loyalty to any political party thorough their careers, and they will now sacrifice the Irish Labour party by agreeing to austerity against the ordinary Citizens of this State? Are these the type of individuals a Political party wants at the helm.

    ...while you poor kids are left with an 8-9 seat party whos best hope is no3 in a FF-SF-Lab coalition, you might get 1 maybe 2 low ranking ministers, maybe, thats if they need you to make up the numbers.
    Labour will suffer way more than FG for the broken election promises

    Looking at the recent Polls and commentary Labour are taking more of the heat, even if they dont deserve it.

    The OP is correct, the current leadership of the labour party has a woeful track record. This will result in the demise of the labour party as we know it today. They deserve all that is coming.

    That is like asking if Mr. and Mrs. Gimmemore ever contemplated closing the deal with the department of education, in that lenghty negotiation proces that lasted eight years, and gave her half a million for a corner in a field.......

    But you most remember most of them came from the workers party and they were fighting all the time, there is a bit of the gypsies or half thinkers about them.
    Corruption and Politics go hand in hand
