    At least he gives a damn and knows about the neighbourhood, unlike Lucinda “parachuted in from Mayo” Creighton – only in it for the power

    Horses for courses.
    This is going to go down much better in sandymount than the standard AAA/PBP/SD “Public Meeting”

    Having said that, I like Kevin Humphreys.

    I had dealings with Kevin Humphreys several years ago. He’s actually a very, very genuine guy – with a real commitment to doing good and contributing positively. He cares about the country – people first, economy second. I’m not in his constituency but, if I was, I’d vote for him.

    Am I the only one who saw ‘Beggars Bush’ on that sign, and had to laugh at the sweet unintentional irony of it all?

    He may well be a nice guy, but he’s tied his cart to the Labour horse. That makes him part of Irelands problems.

    A friend of mine saw Kevin Humphreys in hospital recovering from donating a kidney.
    When asked who it went to, he said “first-come-first-served”.

    When I looked back across the sand, I noticed that where things were most trying for me, there was only one pair of footprints. I asked Kevin why that was. He said:
    “When you saw only one set of footprints,
    It was then that I carried you.”

    Kevin held me close and reassured me that it really wasn’t a problem, it happens to every man now and then.

    The cashier refused payment, and when I looked at my bill, it said “I’ve taken care of this. Just watching you and your beautiful children wreck this restaurant for a full hour has touched me more than you can know. Kevin Humphreys.”

    When the pilot announced “Is there a doctor on board?”, Kevin Humphreys stepped forward. “Doctor, thank goodness” said the steward. “Oh I’m not a doctor,” Kevin replied. “But I know how to fix a broken heart.”

    Kevin once told me that the Social Democrats have 3 leaders so I shouldn’t vote for them. Thanks, Kevin. That was close.

    “I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.”

    I jumped from the vehicle, my eyes filled with tears. “I’m so sorry,” I kept repeating. “It just came out of nowhere.” I moved towards the cat lying motionless in the centre of the road. “Stay back!” Kevin Humphreys roared. “I said stay back, all of you!” We fell quiet as he crouched above the animal, his face close to the mangled whiskers. He passed his hands once, twice along the cat’s body. All of a sudden it sprang up with a fierce miaow, snarled at me and disappeared at pace into the bushes.

          Kevin wrote all those books, and when the guy we all know as Stephen King started to claim the credit and money, Kevin didn’t have the heart to tell on him.

    “The principle of my political life … is, that all ameliorations and improvements in political institutions can be obtained by persevering in a perfectly peaceable and legal course, and cannot be obtained by forcible means, or if they could be got by forcible means, such means create more evils than they cure, and leave the country worse than they found it.”
    – Kevin Humphreys
