Election letter: Fianna Fáil will endure as it cares about the person and community

In Ireland political parties in most instances have survived and have enjoyed enduring success due to having core purpose and core values which have always remained fixed while on the other hand their strategies and practices have endlessly adapted to a changing world.

All have tried to balance continuity and change whilst trying to preserve their core ideology and work towards an envisioned future.

However their now exists during this general election debate a lack of clarity and rigor to the concepts at large being presented to the Irish people particularly by Fine Gael, Labour and Sinn Féin, all showing a clear lack of vision and an envisioned future for the country. Their vivid descriptions of what it will mean to achieve them are fuzzy, uninspiring, vague and leading to boredom and anger of the electorate.
