      You mean Fine Gael lite has a problem with Sinn Fein?

      „Sinn Féin aren’t left-wing!“ Says a party that treats coalitions with Fine Gael like a subscription service

      What are the ideological differences, I’m from Tyrone and tbh don’t know anything about Labour in the south

      While very easy to read this as short-sighted and from the Fine Gael school of Shinner-bashing, I think it can be read differently.

      There were plenty of more-centre-than-left (Alan Kelly) types that were fairly vocal to their opposition to the party’s support of Connolly for president. I think this can be read more as an attempt to keep them on side. It also sends the signal to SF that they’ve already been FG’s whipping boys, they won’t their’s as well.

      I can see the calculations for Labour. They’ve been dancing around their identity in a crowded centre-left space for years. They need to look to bring the other centre-left parties into the fold or they will lose out to them in the long run. The centrist wing see SF, Soc-Dems and Greens as rivals moreso than FFG and are wary of working with rivals. Bacik is walking a really tight rope.

      How can she lead? SF far bigger party…Labour got around the same amount of votes the SDs did…

      Two, separate things can be true:

      1) Labour has long since lost all credibility on this topic.

      2) There are a number of areas where (for various reasons) Sinn Fein hold unusual positions for a notionally left-wing party. And for that reason most left-wing European parties would have _some_ ideological differences with Sinn Fein.

      So she’s not wrong, but it would sound more credible if a different party was saying it.
