Government’s disappointing election message lack’s conviction

The ongoing message from both Fine Gael and Labour since the start of the election campaign is at best disappointing and lacks conviction.

Despite substantial policy differences between both parties in their election promises, incredibly, both Government parties still sing from the same hymn sheet, by continuing to churn out the same message; that apart from Fine Gael and Labour — no other party or combination of parties are capable of managing the economy. This message is presumptuous, unnecessarily arrogant, and unlikely to wash with the electorate

Clearly, the attacks on left wing parties are at best, misguided. In addition, the much used Government ‘mantra’ that Fianna Fáil created the recession and are responsibility for all our ills, is overly simplistic and close to the point of being factually incorrect.
