Election Disgrace

I am currently watching the results of the General Election and to be quite honest, I am amazed and disgusted with what I am seeing. I genuinely thought that there was a palpable desire for change amongst the people of Ireland and that Fianna Fail would get their just deserts, five years in oppisition.
As I am watching the results roll in and sleazy FF politicians continually being hoisted up on cronies shoulders in a jubilance akin to a syndicate of homeless men winning the national lottery I am asking the people of Ireland, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?.
Our country is at a crossroads. We appear to be reaching the end of an era of unparalelled economic success. For the past ten years there has been more money in the country then ever before but what do we have to show for it. House prices are so inflated that the vast majority of young people cannot afford to get on the property ladder. Those who are on with 100% mortgages are facing inflation hikes, loss of value on their prized asset and also, the proposition of job losses with many multi-nationals pulling out as are wage demands are too great.
Then we have the area of planning. Land has been rezoned all over the country by councillors who care little for the good of the people, but rather line their own pockets to feed their own insatiable greed. Not only that, but the mighty Fianna Fail has absolutely failed to deliver on infastructure. Our pathetic road networks are increasingly being choked by our nations over reliance on private transport while the previous government failed to promote or embrace the concept public transport. As the issue of the environment becomes the greatest international challenge of our time, our failure to make any effort to adress these issues is a disgrace.
Then we have the issue of Government spending. Remember people, we are the tax payers. This is our money. We employ the politicians to spend it in our best interests. And what has the money been spent on? PPars, electronic voting, two luas systems that don't meet in the middle, a tunnell under Dublin that cannot take the biggest European trucks and of course, Bertie's make up. Not only that but the fact that there is no major ministry for Connaught means we are continually underfunded and neglected here in the West.
Its time we wake up and smell the coffee. Fianna Fail have gotten away with murder for the past 10 years and will continue to do so until we, the people, take a stand. Fianna Fail have a hardcore vote and they will always get them out for election day. If people genuinely want change they have to get out and vote themselves. The apathy and malaise must end here. It is imperative that a lesson is learned from today. Every vote counts and every able bodied person should excercise not only their democratic right but their democratic duty
