Dear God this brings FG ‘teeth ‘n breasticle’ marketing to a whole new level.
heel strike, he won’t be running for long
This guy might actually be able to outrun the pitchfork wielding mobs.
It’s the fact that no one in FG can see how wrong this is that is truly distressing…
ROFL! (sorry – couldn’t help it)
We can laugh or cringe (’tis a bit cringy to be fair) but whether Fine Gael or the Shinners, People before Profit or the Soc Dems, it’s not easy to put yourself out there before the electorate and all that entails – mostly ridicule and worse, ire. Except the pot-bellied panto-goblin with the abusive child bride (2nd wife) running for the “National” Party…he deserves what he gets or more accurately what he doesn’t get – votes.
Is this what you’re doing here?
Practising for putting yourself out there?
You certainly tick all the required sociopathic boxes
ROFL. Rent-free in your head.
Since the lockdown a lot of political campaigning is about photo-ops.
Um, James, that’s not what we mean when we say “running for election”
I’ll vote for the next candidate who refuses to participate in these photo-ops.
I’m beginning to think politicians become politicians so they can be photographed rather than be photographed so they can become politicians.
They all look like they’re enjoying it a bit too much.

McLuhan said that the medium is the message. In contemporary democracy the photo-op is the massage.
id say his supreme court parents are so proud that he has stooped this low. i thought he just stood behind pascal donoghue nodding politely.
it looks like somewhere in leafy south dublin where getting the residents votes is like shooting fish in a barrel
