So, not a surprise that Miggeldy is going again.
I wonder will the likes of SF put forward a candidate and push for an election ?
Think there would be little appetite in the country for that I would think.

Miggeldy will win ~70% of the vote if there is an election. Only the Shinners and the fringes beyond have shown any interest in running a candidate. Plus the people love Miggeldy Higgins.

The Presidential one seems to be especially attractive to independent candidates with egos, and an inflated sense of self importance. At least D Higgins is a vastly experienced politician, who has generally done well in the roll.

"Make Ireland Fair Again " is his campaign slogan. Wonder where he got his idea for that from.......

Sharkey has tweeted previously about Tommy Robinson and not in a Robinson is a racist prick way

Yeah, he seems to have a very odd set of policies that leave him sitting somewhere between Panti Bliss and Stevie Lennon. An odd man.

That's all we need now. A former British Army Sargent as our president.

He would get the same number of votes that got him into the Seanad.

He was on RTE giving out about foreigners and some tree hugger didn't know how to react.
