Simon Harris blasts Sinn Fein’s election performance as ‘unmitigated disaster’

The Irish premier has branded Sinn Fein’s performance in the council elections as an “unmitigated disaster”, but has refused to call an early general election despite government parties performing better than expected.
It comes as the leader of Sinn Fein said she is “sorry” that her candidates did not perform better in Ireland’s local elections, amid criticism of the party’s strategy in the council races.
Mary Lou McDonald made the comments as vote counting continues for Ireland’s local and European elections.

[@thelolguy007]

It’s a bad day when Sinn Fein make Harris look good. They need rid of their leader and change back to the old policies that got them where they are

[@Mick-ke1kv]

Too late. Not one of them opposed their ridiculous direction. None of them can be trusted now. Worst opposition party there has ever been.

[@100IrelandisforthePeople]

Harris doesn't look good
Banana Republic when the Governmemt taxi non Nationals to the polling stations
It will be a different outcome when the General Elections rock around in March 2025
The True Irish Nationals will SPEAK at the Polls ❤

Will the Irish natives resort to an Armed Struggle, to preserve the country's Safety, Culture, Traditions, Religion and Freedom?

[@ed393]

Hopefully he’ll be joining Mary Lou in the Dole que soon.

[@deannelson5519]

Get them all out.

[@jacobking3211]

They are all criticising each other but they are really all together and all the same UNI Party. Its a punch and judy show they are doing for the public. Unfortunately alot of people are mesmerised,taken in and believe it as true and keep putting them back in .How sad for the nation and the high price and sacrifices our brave ancestors paid for our freedom.

Jesus said, "I tell you the truth no one will see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me." For God so loved the world that He give His only Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but will have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the World through Him. For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord, and All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. " If you want to be sure of Heaven and avoid the other place below say the following prayer sincerely from your heart." Lord Jesus I repent and am sorry for my sins forgive me. I forgive all who have offended me.I believe you died and Rose again .Come into my heart and save me. I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Fill me with your Holy Spirit and baptise me with your Holy Spirit. Fulfill your plan and purpose in my life. "I recommend you read John's Gospel especially chapter 3.Gbu.John 3v3v22,John 14v6.

Were there 18 previous versions of disaster to be used as the basis of the term "unmitigated" ?

[@IrishEyesAreSmiling]

I've always believed in SF but, no more, I've never believed in FFG and never will.
Charity starts at home, does that make us right or 'far' right? Right so far I'd say..

[@PreciousWexford]

Get rid of all of them especially him he is definitely not fit to run a country
