Thank god! The fascists must be stopped!
Irish, the great bunch of lads!
With ranked choice voting and proportional representation.
And absolute devotion to two political parties
Haha, yes, but I wouldn't say devoter when both parties had less than half the seats and Sinn Fein had second highest this time. Historically Labor were a large force but not for a number of years.
Well fuck, as if I needed more reason to move back to the motherland.
Depends where you draw the line between right and far right, but it's certainly good. We will still end up with a centre-right government most likely, perhaps a sprinkle of left in there to make it to the 87 seats required for majority. I am crossing my fingers that FF and FG don't try to make up their difference with aontú / II / right indys.
