This was one of 50 answers posted by Ireland’s political leaders on the site to questions posed by Irish voters. Over the past two weeks the site has been asking Irish voters to submit and vote for the best questions to ask the leaders of the main political parties. The questions were divided into topics such as the economy, jobs, health and education, political reform, and “other issues”
Enda Kenny, who is widely expected to become the next Taoiseach, has scored one of the most popular answers on the site with his response to the questions about education funding. Kenny said his party would not increase college fees but would implement a “student contribution” paid for by graduates over 10 years, post graduation. The popularity of the answer follows the controversy surrounding his party’s proposal to remove mandatory Irish lessons for Leaving Cert students.
Bucking the polls Gerry Adams’s answers have been voted the most popular, followed by Eamon Gilmore’s, then Enda Kenny’s and John Gormely’s. Michaél Martin’s answers have recieved the least number of votes to date.
