I firmly believe it was a trade. He gets the Nobel and unregulated access to oil and she gets into government. Problem is that Maduro's government is still loyal to him and US oil companies don't want to invest in the extraction of the oil. An absolute clusterfuck.

If like me you wondered 'where did this guy come out of?' during the Irish presidential election, here's your answer. Morto for Kerry and Tipperary County Councils.

People like Quinn and his Iona brethren love to push the 'silent majority' myth. No, the vast majority do not want a hardline Catholic for president, we do not hate immigrants and we most definitely do not support a genocidal apartheid state.

Just so people realise who was behind the 'spoil your vote' campaign... This article appeared in Gript, which is owned by multi-millionaire Declan Ganley, who was given ample air time on our national broadcaster prior to the presidential election to spout his grievances about the candidates.
