Yeats's declaration 'A terrible beauty is born' reflects the uneasy alliance of the historic rivals Fianna Fail and Fine Gael, attempting to avert Sinn Fein's influence. This coalition's mission to redefine Irish politics underscores the necessity of collaboration amid a rapidly transforming socio-economic landscape.
As Ireland experiences remarkable population growth, public infrastructure and services are lagging significantly behind, signaling a disconnect between economic prowess and public welfare, evidenced by the current housing crisis forcing over 14,000 people into emergency accommodations.
The upcoming election sees housing as the pivotal issue, overshadowing the significant economic strides made since the 1990s. Despite Ireland's transformation into one of the richest nations, public discontent highlights a society grappling with high living costs and inadequate support.
With the Irish economy buoyed largely by multinational corporations, the ruling parties prioritize strategic alliances post-election, focusing on curbing Sinn Fein's influence while navigating public discontent associated with high rents and cost of living pressures.
