The Social Democrats in Ireland have expressed their willingness to participate in forming a government following the upcoming election, but they are insisting on clear policy commitments before entering any coalition.

They are advocating for a change in the political landscape, moving away from what they describe as the "same old politics" of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil.
