“Record Homeless Children Is Fine, But Picking Jim Gavin Over One Of Us Is Unforgivable” Fianna Fáil Members Call On Martin To Resign
HUGE PRESSURE is building on Fianna Fáil leader and Taoiseach Micheál Martin as the campaign for his pick for the presidency Jim Gavin has ended in embarrassment.
“Homeless kids, that I can handle, but I wept like Niagara Falls when Micheál said this Dublin GAA head was to be picked over my mate MEP Billy. This isn’t something forgivable like collapsing the country into financial ruin in 2008, this is serious,” confirmed one life long Fianna Fáil member, who was now calling for Martin to resign.
From the outset, Fianna Fáil grassroots supporters had voiced their opposition to parachuting in an outside candidate with the same intensity they bring to staying silent on child homelessness and other crises the party presides over.
“To be honest, only owing €3k to a tenant proves he’s not Fianna Fáil material, where’s the bribes, the brown envelopes? We used to be a party in which the former leader stole money from a surgery fund for his ill friend and deputy leader. How far we’ve fallen,” said one member who was happy to stay silent on no social housing, no school places for autistic children and delays in surgeries for children with scoliosis.
“Look, do I care that Robert Troy got found out not declaring he was the owner and part owner of 12 properties? During a housing crisis and as punishment got promoted to the rank of junior minister? Do I fuck, I care about serious stuff like good solid FF men being passed over for a cushy €250k a year number, that’s a gig one of us is owed,” raged another member of the party.
“Choosing someone who kept over €3000 of his tenant’s money for himself was stupid, it shames us as a party, have we no morals? We should have gone for someone trustworthy and morally upright like Bertie. Martin’s got to go!” confirmed another FF diehard.
