The 18-24 age group is also where reactionary "influencers" like Andrew Tate seem to have the most sway. Is Andrew Tate actually a real thing or is it a circle wank for left wingers to fret about? Real. |

This election is one more step on Sinn Fein's march from terrorism to begin a stupid left-wing party. I think they are now more than halfway there.

Dublin South-West: Surplus being transferred from John Lahart now-will it be enough to take Independent candidate and former South Dublin Mayor Alan Edge over the edge (if you will pardon the pun)? No, and it won't even be close. |

Quantative and Qualitative analysis. Am I influenced by you because I read you? Are you influenced by me? When the BBC talks about "far right influencers like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson" are they wilfully lying or are they simply as stupid as mud . Do you enjoy citric desserts like Lemon Cheesecake and battery acid asbestos flakes? Do you regard Trump as Far Right? |

When the BBC talks about "far right influencers like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson" are they wilfully lying or are they simply as stupid as mud . Do you enjoy citric desserts like Lemon Cheesecake and battery acid asbestos flakes? Do you regard Trump as Far Right? 1. I have no idea who he influences but it's undeniable that he does. 10m xitter followers who I assume aren't signing up for his recipes and gardening tips. He is reportedly worth £500m and it's not as though he actually manufactures anything or offers a service other than flogging his name via endorsements as an 'influencer'. I don't know who buys products on the basis of adverts either yet it's one of the biggest industries in the world. 2. You and I being influenced by each other is not the point. This is a forum with give and take, that's not the world that Tate operates in. His verbal and written transactions are all one way yet still, I repeat, 10 million have signed up to be radicalised. 3. " When the BBC talks about "far right influencers like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson" are they wilfully lying or are they simply as stupid as mud," What a stupendously moronic question. Do you think those are the only alternatives? No idea what the hell is meant by the comment about desserts and asbestos. 4. Yes. And even if he wasn't he seems to be recruiting a lot of people that are. There may be a clue there. |

Is this a mini-revival for Labour in Ireland? I remember them being part of a FG-led government with Dick Spring as their leader.

A full recount has been called in North Tipperary.
It arose after the ninth count when the two lowest candidates were separated by 7 votes.
Jim Ryan (Ind) held 6,362 votes after transfers from Michael Lowry's surplus and other eliminated candidates.
Michael Smith (FF) led with 6,369 votes.
A recheck of the 5,000 eliminated votes of Phyl Bugler (FG) votes put Smith ahead with one vote. A second recheck put Smith ahead by two votes.
The recount starts at 11am tomorrow.
