Our President/Uachtarain Higgins represented the people of Ireland at Michael Longley.
He is also a LRB subscriber (see pile in front of Senator Sanders)

We commit ourselves to looking to the future to work together with employers, government &enforcement agencies to make deaths at work a thing of the past
