FF-FG merger would not be good for democracy
You, therefore, see nothing wrong with the amalgamation of two of the most powerful political parties into what would be an unchallengable monolith.
Do you not remember the period since the 1980s when one party won all elections for nearly a quarter of a century? Did they not have a virtual monopoly of power as a result? Did that not end during the Celtic Tiger era with the country eventually going bankrupt? The amalgamation of the two dominant political parties should be rejected because such an amalgamation would have serious implications for the health of our democracy.
