so far from small landlords being the beneficiaries here - it is the giant international landlord fund Ires Reit that stands to profit on rent caps being lifted - #housing #rental - it's already massively profitable on the back of hoovering up rental property in Dublin. #Irlpol #Spéirghorm

my theory on the Indo Ahern survey result. Fionnán Sheahan doing Mícheal Martin (and Deirdre Heenan presumably?) a big favour by running it #speirgorm #irlpol
the only purpose of this survey item was for Martin to be able to say to Hanafin et al 'see? ye can't even beat Ahern! we're going with McAleese Mk II'.

Micheal Martin saw no talent in his party to run for president.
Simon Harris sees no talent in his party to appoint to Finance.

Is this the weakest cabinet ever in terms of capability or in terms of leadership? #tonightvmtv #dail #irlpol

I had missed that Renua had rebranded as the Centre Party. I mean, the name was red flaggy as all hell and the website reinforced that (imagery is so deeply USian right wing badness), but yeah, that simple rebrand info would have been enough. #irlpol

my further theory is that Ahern has never had any intention of running - he has only allowed his name to enter discussion purely out of divilment so as to make things difficult for Martin - and the rest of the class of '07 #aras25 #speirgorm #irlpol
