Well if you want to get into semantics, i'm gonna bow out of this thread. You know what I mean. I'm referring to the large section of people who voted for Fianna Fail. Who are the largest voting block in the country.
I know technically they didn't get 51% but the PR system is supposed to the fairest system, rather than a first past the post as they have in the UK. It's a major factor in why the Lib Dems can't get into power sharing situation. I really don't know what your getting at? Are you proposing another system? are you suggesting they rigged the election? are you suggesting another party be in power?
it's not sematics. i'm challenging your assumptions. I think it is just lazy to suggest/assume that people are purely selfish and driven to vote for selfish means. You're also trying to shore up some real concerns into sound bites that make little sense.
i don't know why i'm been confrontational. long day in work. wanna kiss?
