The Political Future of Ireland

Taking a page from the article on complaceny I would like to remind everyone that the election is not yet over and could change over night. However, assuming ImaNewbie wins there are many questions about the future of Ireland.
The first question is obvious, What happens to Victor and IR ? Will it still be around will they come back again in full force for next elections ? Or will they all pick up and leave ? Maybe some will stay and IR will become a regular Irish party. Over time its likely it could assimilate into Irish politics.
The second question is more of a statement. If Imanewbie wins this will be his what 5th term ? I am not sure but whatever is will he step down and let someone else take a crack at leadership. Or has he done that already and no one has stepped up ? Personally have tried to step down and sometimes nobody volunteers
so I would not be surprised if the same thing happened to him.
Then there is the inbablance in the political field. All the parties during this crisis have kind of pulled in behind IF during this crisis and as a result it has had an explosion of membership not seen by the other parties. None of the opposition parties are even the least bit competitive right now.
All of these are just questions I have had going around in my head. Anybody else have the answers ?

Have we the IF done a bad job yet patton??
The answer is a constitution that will stop these kind of takeovers in the future. A Law which states that you have to be born in eIreland and/or lived here 2 Months or something.
The Political Field will spice up again hopefully once the fears of these takeovers are put past Ireland. The Irish are not of a hive mind you all have different visions so new parties will spring up and the likes of Irish Union, Fianna Fáil and Irish Freedom will all revitalise.
I agree with FD. and a constitution is essential, something stating a president should be here three months before eligibility for president.I got other ideas but thats not for here.
Yep, a constitution with a rule that applies to them (2-3 months here would do) can be used to ban them from the presidency.
for at least another month and by then theyll get bored and move on to some other country from which they can print the max amount and run off with it leaving behind some companies.
Another thing we should do is arrange to have the companies theyre running off of stolen money that they likely wont donate to the gov. to be banned and shut down. They cant continue to make profits off of their crimes.
That and getting taxes back to normal. We arent some paradise for exporters from other countries.
Patton made a comment about it being the first thing to do before my last statement.
A constitution does sound like a good idea. Perhaps that should be the first job for the new congress
Sorry I made the comment with an SO so replaced it. Just imagined I said that before Ciarin said his statement
I hope we have more active congressman then we did this past month. If not we wont be changing any laws, also we must have a majority with the coalition. I do see a lot of wasted votes in the presidency though.
How many seats do all the Irish parties hold( excluding IR)
If we get the max of 40 (Likely I think) then it will be the following:
Ireland First: 20
Ireland Reborn: 15
Irish Union Party: 3
Fianna Fáil: 1
Irish Freedom Party: 1
As things stand.
GEt your top party members highest up on the list patton! I notice Flint Seven and Podolsky haven\'t worked in a while...
Is a simple majority all that is needed on a proposal?
Dudes, we\'re not leaving. We just went to war. This month we\'ll be the opposition. The only party capable of opposing IF at the moment. The rest of the parties have been tricked by IF and got all active members on their side, for the great cause of getting rid of Victor...
We will sign a constitution banning you from the presidency unless you live here longer, and if we can we will outlaw your party all together. None of your congressmen will be welcome on our forum where the real debates and votes will happen. We have a plan to nullify your thievery of the treasury, and we have a plan for the new Ireland. You will be nothing.
BK tricked??? I believe those are your tactics, your getting confused.
I remember when we discuss about a constitution, and that was my first months here, but still nothing clear about. I think its time to do a hard work and give eirish a econstitution.
Ireland was the first eCountry to come up with the idea of a constitution and try to do it

I wrote a draft constitution back in January, and I look forward to finish what Ireland started.
this sounds like comunism to me. ImaNewbie you\'re like Lenin, I. V.Stalin, N. Ceausescu. you shold retire from political activity and let others be the most important guy in the country. i think you stayed long enough on the President seat of this country.
it\'s just my opinion, i don\'t have anything agaist you... or maybe there aren\'t guys that want to have the supreme power in this beautiful country.
Respect Mr. President ImaNewbie
In reguards to a constitution I think birth in a ecountry should be considered, mabe with a reduced time scale 😉 hehe i jest. A constitution is good and needed methinks to stop abuses like the \"Romainian\" again.
Bebita, most of the parties in ireland are left wing, therefore you may be misinterpreting.
