Problem is that he is still the party leader, not exactly the best thing for post Agreement SF in the Republic. And then the brother thing ...Originally Posted by pd_phoenix
Killian would be a big loss to Sinn Féin. There are a lot of unhappy people in Sinn Féin, including elected representatives. The party is in serious serious trouble.
"Irish citizens . . . on ratification of the Treaty could be forced to become Euro soldiers." Sinn Féin claim on Maastricht in 'Democracy or Dependency' p.6. in 1992.
Not just that, Killian's a pretty good local rep. And when Mary Lou was in Europe, was her first replacement, so if she got elected to the Dail and had to vacate her Europe seat, he'd take it automatically.
So, he was highly rated by the party, at least until recently when he voted against the budget.

But it seems, so far, and I must say to the best of my knowledge, a Dublincentric problem. Not much mention of discontent outside the capital. If there is I would love to hear about it.
Yes KF has gone it has been on the cards for a while as he has been offered the chance to stand for FG or Lab in the next GE.It certainly is a blow to SF in the capital but this has been the elephant in the room for his colleagues for quite a while and at least now the elepant is out.
indeed, you have to wonder why a supposedly "party of the left" is doing so poorly in the current climate, really serves to highlight how out of touch with their potential support base and many of their members they are....
Sinn Fein popular out here in DSW.....their councillors anyway..Sean Crowe of course has history out here...but Cathal King seems to very popular too!!
Behind every great man is a woman rolling her eyes.
Jim Carrey.
I dont know that much about him,did he join post cease fire.
they'll be better chances in FG or Labour, far easier to get elected with them then SF, but then again who knows what scandals will emerge in the near future
If we were all born equal we would all be white, middle-class, middle-aged men!
