The By-elections in Galway West and Dublin Central.

He said irt would cost 10k. I said posters are a total waste of money and he should spend zero. I urged video interviews etc

Agree about posters. I put up a couple of posters and they were ripped down in front of the CCTV cameras. I reported it to the cops, but of course they did not check the surveillance footage.

The important thing to spend money on is leaflets. The state pays for delivery of your leaflet to all 80k voters in the constituency. Leaflets might cost 3k.

Public debates among candidates cost almost nothing. Local radio will do one debate and there will be various debates in different parts of the constituency. If you just do leaflets and public debates you will reach a lot of people for very little expense. Plus online video, etc.

All candidates in favour of remigration should do a vote transfer pact.

Are you able to speak ad lib like I do on my videos???


When I look at most lads on utube, I am not impressed , they just do not have the ability to speak.

And when I tune into those X chats. Nobody has the confidence to do video

Were it not for the time difference I would do a news show at 8 pm a few times a week myself

If that is a question for me, I think so. I got good feedback on the radio election debates: calm, logical. I did one video with James Conway and I was surprised to see how many different expressions appeared on my face.

is there some way around the time difference? Pre-record, perhaps? Or just do one a week and sleep in late the next day?
