Fianna Fail emerges as largest party in Irish election

7. Lol, no they're not. Apart from the tiny far right fringe, most of the political parties in the Republic of Ireland are

to the left of the Democratic Party.

Sinn Fein are a populist party controlled from Northern Ireland by the Belfast based Army Council (many of whom were in the Provisional IRA). They're pro Russia, and anti US (except when they're collecting money from people who should know better in the US). You should read the hate Biden stuff coming from them.

To be fair Fianna Fail are a populist party too, but do it better than SF.

Labour, and its offshoot Social Democrats are traditional parties of the left.

PBP/SP (People Before Profit/Socialist Party) are in the Trotskyist direction.
