Recriminations Begin Among the Big Parties

Whatever the result in the referendum later - and at this stage it looks like a no - recriminations and blame will be handed out over the nature of the yes campaign. The first evidence of this was a while back when Cowen wanted Fine Gael to up their game. Today we see more of this as angry backbenchers in Fianna Fail attack their MEPs for a very quiet performance.
Surely not attempting to deflect from an inability to deliver their constituency (as Cowen demanded). We might also want to watch Bertie Ahern being credited for this loss, the lack of government movement early enough, the scary no vote going “unchallenged”, the backlash against the economy/globalisation/EU defence. Perhaps reading Donncha’s post will enlighten the analysis.
