The Change Makers.
In Balor Arts Centre, Balleybofey. County Donegal at 8pm.
Presidential hopeful Gemma O’Doherty writes:
Tonight we will be in Donegal for the next leg of our anti-corruption tour of Ireland.
We will be discussing how taxpayers’ money is being squandered to look after the tiny golden circle who run our country.
Cavan farmer Alo Mohan will be talking about fraud in agriculture, which is a huge drain on the public purse.
Businessman Seamus Maye will speak about the cartels that dominate Irish industry preventing small indigenous firms from getting ahead. He will also focus on post office closures, their impact on rural communities and the solutions that are being ignored.
Bundoran local Patricia McCafferty will talk about her work as a traffic warden which came to an end after she refused to bend the rules.
I’ll be discussing my Mary Boyle investigation, Garda malpractice and how the mainstream media is failing the public by turning a blind eye on stories of huge importance involving the abuse of citizens’ rights.
We look forward to hearing how corruption has impacted on your lives too.
Everybody’s welcome. See you tonight!

I keep hearing that Gemma is anti vax and was against repeal, anyone have sources to back this up?
Actually interested, what has she prev said?
I think she is anti HPV; not necessarily totally anti-vax. Not sure about repeal. I don’t recall her being particularly vocal either way, but she does come across a bit on the tin foil hat side to me.

And from a google search..

..”In this vein, it’s worth making some brief points on Gemma O’Doherty’s vectoring of anti-vaccine views, and precisely why such conduct is not merely asking questions but rather actively damaging to public health.
For readers outside Ireland, O’Doherty is a journalist who has announced her candidacy for the Irish presidency. While I am loathe to give her any publicity, the debacle over her claims and conduct holds some valuable lessons on how beliefs damaging to public health propagate….”
Nobody likes anybody who ask to many questions and your no different,So what if if she asks questions.Maybe we should all be doing the same.She seems to have rattled you for some reason.I wouldn’t vote for her but I think she is doing us all a sevice,especially regarding the unsolved murders.
What fresh hell is this now?
apparently I should support her anti vaxer views because she “asks questions”, doesn’t matter how ill informed, just keep asking questions..
I won’t vote for her because she us more valuable to society as a journalist.
MDH is doing a fine job and hopefully will get another term
Will Broadsheet be taking any position on Gemma’s suggestions that the State murdered Veronica Guerin, which she made on her anti corruption tour last week in Waterford?

That’s quite the claim….
I remember The General, The Don, and The Monk, but who is The State?
The State a YOU.
Maybe she’s referring to the Islamic State. She’s kinda skeptical on those folk too.
That’s fantasticly insane stuff, I’d imagine that will just make broadsheet love her more.
If she does get on the ballot and there’s a debate, she’s going to get baited into making one of these ridiculous claims and will get battered. Will be entertaining viewing.
