Miriam O’Callaghan was interviewed by the editors of UCD Connections, the university’s weighty “alumni magazine”, which came with today’s Irish Times.
She was asked: Miriam as president. Any interest in that particular gig?
“It’s such an extraordinarily important role. I am flattered and honoured. I know this sounds like PR, that anyone would consider me for it. I said I wouldn’t stand because my youngest is five and I don’t want a Euan Blair scenario where one of my kids could be falling out of Wesley with too much Lucozade on them. You do have to think of that. I did say that if people still like me in seven years, you never know.”
