Kenny must face up to reality — and soon

I’m glad I am not a FG backbencher.

Who will tell Enda that while he is busy running the school for FG ministers on how to be a good backbencher, the real world is continuing, and conflict of interest and political strategy exist even if not in the script?

A minister could be sacked for doing less! Inventing your own reality might work in the US, but not here for long because we don’t actually all live in la la land and the rest of Europe and the World has an actual bearing on things here.

The PR skills that work in the US are not all transferable, Enda. Merkel is not your friend, Enda, even if you put it in the script.

The man from China has another agenda apart from yours, Enda. The troika do not exist in an economic and political vacuum.

Being in Government is not the same as being in Opposition, the cars and the trips and the photos are not the main difference.

You have made your way into Government by shameful means, you have a huge majority and you cannot deliver what you promised.

You don’t seem to have a grasp on the truth. You don’t seem to understand that those who offer ‘solutions’ often have an agenda. It would be a good start if you were to tell us who is backing you financially and /or politically. We need to grasp the fact that we are potentially (and probably actually) a pawn, and it would be useful to know whose pawn and why.

Please think about it and get back to us when you have something meaningful to say.
