Some Yanks on here seem to be getting very angry that Irish people are posting about a presidential election in our own country.

I had a landlady keep my deposit and had to bring her to small claims court to get it back. That was bad enough but what Gavin did was way worse.

Oh no, who will Humphreys have to agree with, now?

Not sure why FFFG ran separate candidates when they essentially parrot what the other says. #Jeather

As someone who had to bring a scab landlady to the Small Claims court to get my deposit back, this shite is enraging.

Jim and Heather are the same candidate.

Gavin and Humphreys are really poor candidates. It's an indictment of FGFG that these are the best they could come up with.

If this is how the rogue terror state treats a white, global icon, remember that there are also Black, Muslim and Arab people who have also been kidnapped by Israel. Think about the violence and humiliation being meted out to them!

The Media is doing a piss-poor job reporting on the terrifying situation the Sumud Flotilla find themselves in. 11 ships, waving UK, Polish, Italian flags, attacked by drone, flashbang, projectile and chemical weapons. Please contact your representatives and departments of foreign affairs.
