Dail votes do matter, NAMA can be defeated!

NAMA is not a done deal , even if the pessimists try to present it like that!

The government does not have a majority in the Dail after the recent move by the two Sligo TDs to resigned the Fianna Fail whip.

Here are their contact details

Jimmy Devins , FF, resigned whip, Sligo North Leitrim jimmy.devins@oireachtas.ie

Eamon Scanlon,FF, resigned whip,Sligo North Leitrim eamon.scanlon@oireachtas.ie

They just made their move because of reduction of services in Sligo , so they should be open to the idea that IF NAMA goes through then even more social services will inevitably be cut , as money flows into the banks and not to needed services.

There is also a number of ex Fianna Fail TDs that are now independent , that could be pushed into a NO vote on NAMA.

Joe Behan , Independent, ex FF, Wicklow joe.behan@oireachtas.ie

Jim McDaid, independent, ex FF Donegal North East jim.mcdaid@oireachtas.ie

Jackie Healy-Rae, independent , ex FF Kerry South.Jackie.Healy.Rae@oireachtas.ie

Michael Lowry , Independent, ex FG Tipperary North, michael.lowry@oireachtas.ie

The vote in the Dail can be very close, and all pressure should be put on the TDs that can swing to a NO vote.

  1. There is no need to focus on these guys alone. Any Govt TD would be sh!t scared to get a load of emails telling them that you will never vote for them ever again if they vote for NAMA. All we need is for one or two of them to break ranks, but if everyone emailed their local TDs with this message, not one of them would vote for it - it would be political suicide. Do it now - I've just emailed my local TDs and all the green TDs, only takes a few minutes. Spread the word folks. I'm off now to tell my friends to do the same.
