Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4I see the Connolly Forum had a big turnout at their commeration over eighty people attended including the general election Green candidate Cake Scanlon carrying would you beleive the Starry Plough.WEE JIMMY and MrsCAWLEY were spotted peeping from behind headstones at the cermony,I hope Wee Jimmy took note of the contents of Clr Connollys speech as regards modern Landlords Speculators and Developers Congratulations to Declan and the Connolly Forum on the large turnout all augers well for the upcoming election, I beleive less than ten attended Wee Jimmys get together at eleven.
Are you still causing Mischief Ned? Bree hasn't declared to run in the general election, so this number of 80 doesn't auger well for anything at all.
I can't for the life of me think of any reason why Declan would run either. Sean has the Left vote sown up as the recent poll has shown us. He is looking good to take the seat, despite bree supporters claiming he hadn’t a hope since the constituency was changed from a 4 to a 3 and that Seans South Sligo support was gone as well.
If Declan runs he will damage Seans chance of a seat. Why would he do that?
Anyway, we all know Declan isn’t running Ned, he hasn’t declared, hasn’t even hinted at declaring, its 6 weeks to the election and he won't have cash from Labours coffers to finance his campaign. So I don’t know why you’re hanging on to that illusion.
As for McGarry, nobody cares about him either. Leave him to his careerism. His base is personality focused not politically focused, they will vote for him no matter what he does so getting obsessed about him is a waste of time and is actually counter-productive.
Get out and help Sean get elected. This niggley feud is of no interest to anyone and making Bree look very childish indeed.
Curious, why where modern Landlords Speculators and Developers congratulating Bree and the Connolly Forum? Something we dont know about?
And another thing, McGarry and Cawley where spotted peeping out from behind headstones? My God, has your voice broken yet? What kind of a target audience are you directing this peurile clap-trap at?
I think he's targeting Labour Party members and SIPTU members in Sligo............You know the ones I'm talking about,the McGarry supporters...!
