With no path forward to gov from #ge24 for sf and there allies (sd,pbp,labour,greens and some independences) voters will see a another FF + FG gov for at least the next five years (11/2029) (unless early election)
FF or FG have been in power in some shape or form since 1923 (Over 100 years)

in #ge24 #ge2024 Fianna Fáil appears to be to biggest winner from this election gaining 10-15 extra seats
This win is bigger then whole parties such as
labour and social democrats
