Just another FF ploy

ON three occasions recently, older gentlemen, who for the last two years have remained silent, interrupted a discussion among a group of younger people and pronounced, “they are all the same, corrupt and useless“.

On each occasion the topic under discussion was the general election. The men in question were formerly outspoken supporters of Fianna Fáil. I have to ask myself if this is a particular ploy by Fianna Fáil to dissuade younger people from voting. To the younger generation I ask that they ignore these “gentlemen” , and remember that all political parties are different, some better than others, and recent history tells us which is the worst.
