Aoife Moore's headline prediction was on the mark.
Highest ever first preference vote; largest ever percentage share.
Highest ever first preference vote; largest ever percentage share.
Aoife Moore: Fine Gael texts out attack lines to journalists. They’re often forwarded on to me by colleagues in journalism and minutes later the very queries Fine Gael direct them to ask appear in the Connolly press inbox. If you didn’t laugh, you’d cry.

The infamous fairy tree in my hometown Dundalk Co.Louth. A tree standing through centuries — believed to be 300+ years old, rooted on a 5,000-year-old cairn tomb in Knockbridge, Dundalk, Co. Louth.
Where nature and history meet.
