Very sorry to hear of the death of former RTÉ Political Editor Donal Kelly. A proud Donegal man, he was very generous with his time - helping younger colleagues like me. A lifelong member of the #NUJ - Donal fought for everyone rather than just himself. Condolences.

Members of the new 34th Dáil have begun to sign the Roll of Members, including Fianna Fáil's Tom Brabazon and Independent Barry Heneghan. By signing, in the presence of Clerk of the Dáil Peter Finnegan, it enables TDs to take their seat when it convenes on Dec 18th

Back in 1992, Roisin Shortall was a newly-minted TD when, minutes after the declaration, she kindly granted me (a rookie reporter) her first interview. Dozens of ivs later, lovely to meet back in the RDS as the Social Democrats co-leader bows out after a 3 decade political career.
