So Mary Lou McDonald has made it clear she’s not running for President of Ireland. How will Sinn Féin now act ? If they don’t support Catherine Connolly, they’ll be damned for splintering the left in Irish politics; if they do support Connolly, they’ll be maybe seen as acquiescing to a candidate choice made by Labour, not Sinn Fein.
In 2024, Simon Harris and others declared that they’d sort the crisis in student accommodation. “The dog ate their homework” is how Una Mullally puts it in the Irish Times – they’ve done nothing about it and we’re half-way through 2025. So course college choice will depend on whether you can afford the massive rents that are required nowadays.
Finally, the Ryder Cup will be brought to Ireland by billionaire J P McManus. It’ll cost the public purse huge amounts of money, but the beleif is that the state will gain even more between visitors to Ireland for the tournament and the opportunity to show modern Ireland to the TV world. Pity about it being an elitist and deeply boring game.
