Former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern has said the new government has to “reflect what the issues were with the people”

“If you don’t do that it won’t reflect change and it would also create a problem for Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, particularly Fianna Fáil, because when you’re putting a government together, you have to look to the future as well,” he said. “If you look at Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael’s manifesto, it’s not too difficult to see how you can put that together, but you’re going to have to reflect what the issues were with the people,” Ahern said, adding that it brings it back to three main issues – housing, homelessness and health.

He said the second option could be Fianna Fáil, Sinn Fein and “somebody else”, but he added that Fianna Fail “have ruled that out solidly”.

Nobody cares apart from rte what Bertie has to say. Especially not the people Voting for CHANGE from corruption and lying and the same old. Please 🙄. Use your intelligence

Watch the heist season 2 on sky1. Similar terrible denial. Accused denies knowing about the bag at the heist. DNA on bag. That bag was stolen from my shed 2 moths ago. Free to walk 🙄

I'm reading all the comments and just thinking who would you prefer from choice of 3..Leo, Brian clown, or Bertie? Poor auld Blair gets the same comments in the UK.

Repairing the work that you did!

Did a lot of good things Bertie 👌still does

Always wondered how Bertie gets paid for interviews and the likes, is it cash in a brown Envelopes or bitcoin. Asking for a friend

Ah great to see RTE rolling Bertie back out 😂😂

The absolute neck.

Root cause analysis needed, oh hangon, it started with him!

I thought he was a Has Been. He did well with Good Friday Agreement, but it is time for him to let others do the planning for next govt

Any tips for the horses Bertie?

Blurty blank cheque Aherne, any sign of his accountancy certification?

What a break-thru from Bertie !!

Bertie. Go away. No one cares what you have to say. NO ONE. That includes FF

Unless he's on to talk about how to pocket a boat load of cash and get away Scott free then nobody wants to hear from him or his shite talk

Back Into the kitchen press like a good lad Bertie.

I have conferred with the people and they have asked me to reflect their continuing contempt for Bertie Ahern. They have also asked that media outlets stop digging up his body for more of his hot takes.

Conspicuous absence of reference to SF. The party that won a seat less than FF and two more than FG. And a lot more than the other parties he mentioned. Was he wheeled-out to airbrush that inconvenient truth?

Go wan now Bertie, your time is over.

Rich coming from himself, the guy with no bank account, corruption, domestic violence questionable? Get back under the rock you crawled out from under

FineGael fiannafailparty both parties in power will never be change. Both are a disgusting representation of the old boys club. Utterly bereft of any understanding what this country needs and how enrich the people of Ireland’s lives. All about the salaries and pensions for them

The architect of the destruction of FF .. time for him to move away from his distractive advice in current formation

Shut up Bertie!.. Go away !

Dirtbox Ahern

'Radical policy', 'throw in the towel' and 'grownups talking': Main parties clash again on government formationIt's not any clearer today on how a government could be formed. And figures from the main parties were out again this afternoon to set their stalls. Great to see politics steadily descend into the political gutter with SF/PIRA bringing their special brand of poison politics in the south. Good luck with them. Another election only way
