No betrayal of our voters

With the final result in the 26 County general election not expected until Monday at the earliest, Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams has dismissed any idea that his party would support one of the traditionally dominant right-wing parties in Irish politics, Fine Gael or Fianna Fail.

“We aren’t going to go in there (to government) and betray our electorate and betray the other people who need a progressive government,” Mr Adams said.

“We are not going to go in and prop up a regressive and negative old conservative government, whatever the particular party political complexion.”

The fracturing of traditional centre-right politics in the general election has a parallel in the widespread disaffection with the once dominant regimes in Spain, Portugal and Greece.

A total of 148 TDs have been returned to the Dublin parliament, with 10 seats remaining to be filled. Fine Gael have 47 seats, with 43 for Fianna Fail and 22 for Sinn Fein. Labour has six seats, the Anti-Austerity Alliance/People Before Profit group have five while the Independent Alliance have four. Sixteen Independent deputies have been elected, the Social Democrats have three seats, and the Green Party have two.

Rechecks and recounts will resume tomorrow morning in Dublin South Central and Dublin South West. Full recounts are to take place in Dublin Bay North and in Wexford. Counting will also resume in Longford-Westmeath.

There were further advances for for Sinn Fein in Dublin Fingal, where trade union activist Louise O’Reilly was elected as a TD for the first time, and in Cork South-Central, where the youthful Donnchadh O Laoghaire took a breakthrough seat. There were also victories in electing a second seat in Mr Adams’s constituency of Louth/East Meath, as well as the retention of an embattled seat in Kerry for veteran republican Martin Ferris.

However, there was disappointment for Padraig MacLochlainn in l who lost out in the new five-seat constituency of Donegal, although party colleague Pearse Doherty and republican independent Thomas Pringle were both re-elected.

With support for establishment parties at a record low, prospects for a new coalition government are in deep disarray, and weeks of protracted negotiations are on the cards.

Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny has so far ruled out resigning or re-running the poll. His party suffered devastating losses of about 30 seats, while its Labour Party partner was humiliated by the prospect of retaining no more than 6 seats.

Labour deputy leader Alan Kelly bluntly told Fianna Fail and Fine Gael to “cop themselves on now” and form a government.

The outgoing environment minister appeared visibly high after rescuing his deeply troubled political career by holding onto his seat in Tipperary, one of only six sitting Labour TDs to survive out of an original coterie of 37.

Kelly, who is chiefly identified with the housing and homelessness crisis in the 26 County state, said it was rubbish for the country’s two biggest parties to suggest there are massive issues between them.

“It’s 2016 lads, it is 100 years since the Rising. Civil war politics are over,” he said. “Fianna Fail and Fine Gael need to ‘cop themselves on’ now and form a new government for the next five years.

“All of this pretending that there are massive issues between them is rubbish. They need to come together, work together and put a government in place for the good of the people.”

He was at odds with his party leader, Joan Burton who insisted the Labour Party would vote for Enda Kenny as Taoiseach. This means he is assured of the votes of at least 59 TDs when parliament meets for the first time, still at least 20 seats short of a majority.

Outgoing Fine Gael health minister Leo Varadkar ruled out the ‘grand coalition’. He said: “It is up to the Opposition to see if they can form a government. We’ve been rebuffed.”

His cabinet colleague Richard Bruton signalled less reluctance, and referred to the importance of the “national interest”, which often indicates a willingness to make a compromise. “We need a stable government,” he said. “One that can implement a coherent economic plan.”

Significantly, Fianna Fail leader Micheal Martin also promised to “work in the national interest”. He said Fianna Fail had in the past taken “electorally and politically costly” decisions in the interests of the country. “That has happened in the past and that is what is going to happen again,” he added. “The country comes first in all our deliberations in this regard.”

But Fianna Fail veteran and former defence minister Willie O’Dea was defiantly opposed to a grand coalition, as was deputy leader Eamon O Cuiv. The Fianna Fail frontbencher said they fought the election on the basis they would not do a deal, adding: “I believe your word is your bond.”

Sinn Fein fought the election alongside those standing on the Right2Change platform, which saw candidates elected right across the state, although well short of the numbers needed to form a government.

Gerry Adams said Sinn Fein met its own expectations in the election. His party will return to the Dail with 22 or 23 seats, more than 50% greater than it had after the last general election. Mr Adams said the poll had demonstrated a sea change in politics in the 26 Counties.

He said: “You can always do better, I would love that we were going into government with a majority - that takes time. These other parties have more depth, have more structures, have more organisation, have more resources...

“The message out there - and this is an ongoing process, this is very much a work in progress - is that people want change. The big conservative parties that ran this place for a very long time can’t summon between them any more than 50 per cent of the vote. The left parties, the progressive parties, the independents, the Sinn Fein party, all have garnered the rest of all of that.”

Parties will have until March 10 - when the Dail is scheduled to resume - to forge a power-sharing deal or ask the President to hold a new election.
