Yeah, election posters are a real throw-back when you think about it. They may have some impact for general elections where a name or a face can stick out, but for referendums they are almost entirely pointless eyesores.

There was but then they checked the statute book and realised it would take a referendum to ban them, not joking btw

It would be great if that went ahead and the pro-banning side just absolutely plastered the country with posters. LOL

Really? They're banned in Westport but perhaps that is just the local organisations of each party agreeing not to putting up their posters.

This is indepth analysis of the Referendum It is pure analysis of all arguments. The author is a No voter but the author is advocating ammending the current Article in the constitution as opposed to ridding of it. Its an informative piece regardless of which voting intention someone has.

Pat Kenny did a decent job there. Ronan Mullen is 1 prize prick, how anyone could be swayed by anything that came out of his mouth is beyond me.

The new hate figure of the no side. Twitter is wall to wall with them saying he's a disgrace and wanting him sacked.
