Speaking on Morning Ireland earlier, Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald reiterated that her preference is for a government without Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael.McDonald said Sinn Féin has already been in touch with the Green Party, the Social Democrats and Solidarity-People Before Profit, and will also talk to independents and Labour, “everybody outside the old two”, to establish “whether or not there are the numbers to deliver a government without Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael”.

Embarrassing

Ireland in big trouble if this happens

She’s going to look so funny picking herself up off the floor when she trips over her ego.

Elected to solve housing & homeless as u stated. Not to ram a border poll through. Solve the problems first or that swing will disappear.

“A terrible beauty is born” There is no doubt we deserve the government we get

Now form a government. You seem to have got a mandate.

We all do. Now lead, follow or get out of the way.

Well done

sinnfeinireland MaryLouMcDonald it ain’t over yeah bitch

We do alright

I'd take anyone as Taoiseach over her

I bloody hope not!!

I could well take a holiday on Mars some day.

No doubt

I’m guessing Fianna Fáil won’t agree to that and definitely not Fine Gael. She might get tanaiste though

O dear what have we done?

The arrogance is palpable

This is hauntingly familiar to some other woman in the UK who had dreams of glory beyond her reach. Can't remember her name...Jo-something. lol

Fucking wonderful 🖕

We need some changes- perhaps Sinn Fein in a govt of likeminded politicians

That’s the spirit!!!

Counting chickens. ..

I hope so

MaryLouMcDonald would be a fantastic Taoiseach 👏🏻🇮🇪👏🏻... delighted with sinnfeinireland results across the board the people who matter have spoken .. a new government a new Taoiseach TimeForChange SinnFein 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️

What’s Kazakhstan like this time of year? I’m outa here

Gwan outta that mary lou

Good luck to her if she can pull it together. Genuinely interested to see how a fully left government would change things.

I hope not

Yeah she us going to kick some asses 😃 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻💪🏻 well done to the people 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

Yeah, not the way things are going. Sinn fein are going to start shouting how theyve basically formed a gov. Then they wont. Then when someone else does, they'll shite on about the 'political establishment'

God help us!

She could call Hillary for some advice on breaking that glass ceiling...oh wait

I certainly hope not. A shower of terrorists and terrorist sympathisers led by a loud mouth with no cohesive policies. F--k off back to the 1970s if you want to shove that up the noses of the people of Ireland

Someone is not very good at Maths.

It's a stretch, but we can hope.

Love you Mary Lou. The people have spoken and we'd love you as Taoiseach!

BIG NEWS. 75.4% of Irish voters DID NOT vote for Sinn Fein. GE2020

More SF fanciful maths. no party in position to form Govt without a v complex - fragile- multi party (ie more than one partner) link up.

Paddy Power odds on next govt of SF/FF/GP in from 14/1 this morning to 5/2 favourite now

WOW

No thanks

I doubt it
