This morning.
Labour Party HQ, Dublin.
Pic 3, from left: Director of Elections Ivana Bacik, Leader of the Labour Party Brendan Howlinand Alan Kelly surrounded by Labour candidates at the launch of Labour Party General Election campaign bearing the slogan: ‘Building An Equal Society’.
Hmm.
Also: where’s Joan Burton, anyone?

That seems like a really small room. I suppose that’s one way to fill it
…and the low ceiling was meant to make Howlin look tall.
Sadly, AK47’s height cancelled that out.
Have they just been found alive inside a shipping container?
Hon de’ Hoop!
I see they have gone for quality not quantity. * cough*
Any hint of an apology from the last time they were in government?
That looks like they lowered the ceiling to make someone look more impressive
and Joan was too tall to help them get away with it
TBH the best thing Labour should do is NOT DO any press
Smart choice to keep Joan Burton out of the photoshoot.
Labour – the party of failed civil servants and step-ladder socialists.
They’ll get a vote alright, just above where FF would go – and below everyone else.
I’d vote for Gino and his nose ring before I’d vote for them.
I’m sure she is a nice lady, but why would they have Ivana Bacik front and centre at such an event – time and time again she has been rejected by the electorate on each occasion she has ran.
She’s their Director of Elections I think.
I believe she is, but they could have had her off to the side or summat.
They need to keep her in the limelight now so the public will be ready for an announcement about Ivana as Labour’s candidate in the next Presidential election….
Stttttop, that probably is the reason.
^^ This. It is a baffling move (or maybe genius) to have one of the proven least electable Labour politicians as their Director of Elections.
Yeah
I don’t get it either
But then some of their Candidate selections don’t make sense either
And no Candidates in Kerry
everyone in that picture looks like they’re having their will to live drained.
I’ll never be able to see Labour as anything but a bunch of liars. Pass.
There appears to be more people in those photographs than there are Labour voters.
Ivana Baçik’s dropped the whole “Independent Senator for Trinity College” shtick then for this gig? Funny that.
I remember in the past, some candidates would refer to themselves as
Independent Fianna Fáil
Independent Fine Gael
Ivana probably terms herself Independent Labour now.
