Irish election campaigning gets more electronic

category national | politics / elections | opinion/analysis author Monday March 12, 2007 21:08author by Tommy Timidity Report this post to the editors

Is it a sign of modern Ireland? Is it an attempt to get down with Ireland's Yoof? Whatever it is, the rise in party political electronic campaigning/propaganda has, at the very least, a few funny moments as a reward for those with a penchant for punishing yourself by daring to have the images burned into your memories. The wonders of the Inter Web are now being utilised to in the name of the party political cause...

Below is a list of videos and websites of people running in the upcoming elections that I have found so far. I will post others to this thread as I find them, developing, in the process, a single collection of material. Please also do the same if you can. Thanks.

1 PDs do YouTube, and having seen this I now realise that never has so much been owed by so many to so few...:

2 Fine Gael's Pet Rabbitte tells it like it is: http://www.makeachange.ie/index3.html

3 Enda, not to be outdone, goes for it to: http://www.finegael.ie/uploads/images/kenny%201.avi

4 Fianna Fail offer you a one-to-one with the Soliders:
http://www.fiannafail.ie/multimedia.php4

5 Richard Boyd-Barrett (http://www.myspace.com/richardboydbarrett) and Rory Hearne (http://www.myspace.com/roryhearne) of the SWP [I mean People Before Profit Alliance, not the Socialist Workers Party, of course] go all Myspace on us.

The Greens, Sinn Féin, the Socialist Party seem to have 'missed' the E boat, with nothing in the line of videos, excursions into Myspace or YouTube seemingly available other than their websites. Think of the children...

But not to subject you too much:

And more of that please!
