Catherine Connolly listens to music on the bus without headphones! #smearthebejaysis #Áras25 #aras25

The last time there was a 2 candidate presidential election was 1973, with Erskine Childers Jr. (FF) v. Tom O’Higgins (FG). Childers won then died a year later. A series of uncontested nominations after this meant the next presidential election wasn’t until 1990, won by Mary Robinson (Lab). #Áras25

The Eoin Hayes debacle is a shocking indictment of the Soc Dems party organisation.

It increases my worry that the SDs are just a loose coalition of progressive independents, not a real party.

The first Technical Group of the 34th Dáil has been announced. The new Regional Group includes the all members of the group (that were re-elected) from the previous Dáil, with the notable exception of Peadar Tóibín. Marian Harkin has also defected from the left-wing Independent Group. #GE24
