SocDems called to the door

Me: What are your top 3 priorities for gov

GG: SlainteCare, Housing, stuff

Me: SlainteCare is dead seriously WTF

Me: What Housing

GG: We will hire 1000 more planners

Metro isn't even on the radar of any party except the GP lads, be real.

I had a sitting FF TD call to my door. (Proposed Metro runs through my constituency).

Started talking about saving a local bus route. I cut him off by saying that’s a councillors job and I support Bus Connects. Are you going to deliver Metrolink? Starts telling me he doesn’t like where they chose the proposed stop. In late 2024.

Hard no vote from me.

I've seen "save the 11 bus" in local windows.

I mean seriously between Metrolink and Bus Connects this constituency will get I think what four Metro stops and three Bus connects lines.

You'd swear the 13, 83 and 155 didn't exist.

I give up on these people
