Has Rotating Taoiaeach made a mockery of the office?

[Jay Homer Simpson]

Or is it just one of those little things that makes us Irish look a bit odd to the rest of the world? Just Imagine what the Brits would say if someone suggested that say Kemi Badenoch & Nigel Farage rotated the office of PM after the next UK General election

Our whole political system has been a mockery since FF and FG joined forces.

I still find it unbelievable that SF haven't had the intelligence to realise Mary Lou is holding their party back and asking as she remains in charge more people turn away from them.

40 percent of our electorate didn't vote, it seems people are giving up on democracy.

 

[jpc]

Yes it has!

In the interview that Scolaire did with the two lads at the Burke protest, Chariot Man says that Nationalist candidates ate not liked. He was correct. People do not like have reality shown to them when they are brainwashed not to accept it. Instead they believe inna fairytale of all groups holding hands and singing Peace Train

And that's gullibility in a nutshell!

To be honest, I think the biggest issue the nationalist candidates have always had is that they have no policies on Normie bread and butter issues, I heard they were like a rabbit in headlights when asked on the doorstep their policy on the cost of childcare and if if they'd increase child benefit and working family payment.

I'm not too fond of democracy at all, really.

Dead right!
If you're not thinking of bread and butter issues.
What good are you?

Getting back to your point.
It's business as usual.
No more pretence of politics as a means of different paths to a societal good.
We're all in it together so to speak.

No not in essence.

However Leo Varadkar holding the Office of Taoiseach did discredit it.

It is much more than that- it is frightening to believe that the people with real power in and over Ireland are evil, stupid, hostile to you or at the very least do not have your best interests at heart. Frightening and depressing.

 

[Declan]

It is, and most people just cant digest

I believe the entities we know as'nations' are listed on Dun&Bradstreet..i.e. they are commercial instruments.
Follow the money..
Just a few CEOs rotating..

Many have suggested that serious adults aren't interested in becoming involved with Irish politics anymore, because governments no longer have any power, with every law coming from EU/UN/WHO etc. Well here is photograph evidence, The Taoseach of 1994 v 2024
