L’Irlanda Indipendente promette un Luas per ogni contea e un affitto agevolato per i lavoratori in prima linea

>Luas for every county

That’s fucking insane.

Just heard them quoted there on the news “Run the government like a business”. I dread what they actually mean by that, how that will look. Businesses generally aren’t democratic places.

Won’t rent subsidies just push rents up even more?


funny words coming from a party that is so unbelievably car-brained that they’d be out with residents protesting and objecting if any of the bigger parties tried to push it through

So they’ll reduce taxes and spend a shit load of money. And create roadworks in every large town in Ireland for the next 15 years.

I mean I knew they were fucking eejits but I didn’t think they’d put it in writing.

The first mainstream party that says they’ll refuse to even talk to these clowns about forming a government will get a higher preference from me.

The independent drive is doing my nut in.

You’ll end up with nothing because they won’t be able to provide a stable government with *anyone*. At least with the other smaller parties you at least have a chance of a coalition

This lad gets votes in West Cork because he looks like God clicked “Rural dairy farmer” on the create a character section

Gonna lie, might as well lie BIG.

Their whole manifesto is like something an auld lad stuck to a barstool would be spouting after a few jars. Anything they offer is essentially bullshit; they oppose anything to do with enviromentalism; throw a few punches downwards at the poor, immigrants, and IP applicants; and the usual pandering is made to ‘front line’ / ‘hard’ workers and farmers.

Hugely anti-environment, by the way. Like, not even just green taxes. They want to

* freeze and ‘reform’ carbon tax
* conduct verge cutting year-round
* oppose any mandatory cull of the national herd and fight any derogation increase.
* ‘renegotiate’ quotas for Irish fishing vessels
* freeze all ‘green taxes’
* ensure no farmer will be forced to re-wet their lands or be affected by adjoining holdings undertaking re-wetting (effectively outlawing the practice)
* implement 21-day notice before farm inspections
* remove carbon tax on marked gas oil sold to the agricultural sector including agricultural contractors
* ensure continuation of live export markets and oppose EU policies that threaten them
* ensure any future proposed environmental scheme is not taken out of CAP budget
* ‘re-engage’ with EU on regulations in forestry sector
* protect the right of individuals to cut turf
* “ensure all climate policies reflect Irish realties” – like the climate gives a shit
* ‘rural-proof’ all public policy, including climate policy (whatever the fuck that means)
* freeze and review all fuel excise taxes
* Reverse ‘harmful policies’ that put ‘unfair constraints’ on farmers and fishermen/fisherwomen
* “Abandon the unachievable and destructive ‘net-zero’ agenda”

This is all aside from the vast promises of money, rebates, offsets, etc. etc. etc. that are promised to farmers.

A vote for this crowd is essentially a vote to finally kill off the ecology of Ireland.
