The article from The Irish Times discusses Independent TD Michael Lowry's perspective on the potential coalition partners for Fianna Fáil (FF) and Fine Gael (FG) following the next general election. Lowry suggests that both parties need to consider whether Labour or Independent politicians would be more realistic partners in forming a government. He highlights the challenges of coalition building, noting that while FF and FG have historically been rivals, they might need to collaborate again due to the fragmented political landscape. Lowry also points out the ideological differences and the practical difficulties in aligning with smaller parties or independents, emphasizing the need for pragmatic decisions to ensure stable governance. He underscores the importance of Independents in providing stability and flexibility in government formation, especially given the current political climate where traditional alliances are shifting.
