Ireland - Afternoon Update

The count has progressed, and has lead to a refinement in the Teddy Count.

50 - FG
44 - FF
24 - SF
7 - Labour
33 - Others

Labour should manage to get it's 7 needed for "Speaking Rights", AKA Party Status.

The others seem to break down as below:

6 - Pro-Rural Independent and/or Urban+Moderate
6 - Anti-Austerity Alliance, People Before Profit
6 - Independent Alliance
4 - Independents For Change
3 - Social Democrat
3 - Left-Wing Independents
2 - Right-Wing Independents
2 - Green
1 - Workers and Unemployed Action
0 - Renua

It is possible that with the AAA-PBP and the IA sitting on the line of speaking rights, that the two groups may find a willing Independent to join them and thus gain speaking rights in the Dail.
