Heather v Connolly 🤷�♂️
So blatant..

Like, what else could they say? Connolly gains from Gavin exit
Why is it Heather and Connolly is the point.

They dont headline about Taoiseach Michal or Tainiste Simon.

It's an interesting double standard. Auntie Heather versus candidate Connolly
Yup, why not same for both?

Exactly. It's quite blatant.

Heather's posters only say Heather.
Catherine's posters has her surname written in a 1900s type font which is even more noticeable on the SF pamphlet doing the rounds here.

They're both playing their names the way they want.

That's up to them. Connolly is a more business like campaign. Heather is warm and cuddly.

But the press shouldn't be doing it. I get the Business Post would prefer an FFG candidate over a leftie, but it wasn't very subtle

Quote from: Dag Dog on October 13, 2025, 07:07:45 AMRemember when The Catherine was part of this freakshow - Mick Wallace, Clare Daly and worst of all George Galloway  :o . At this stage George's account on Twitter (pre-Elon) was tagged "Russian state-affiliated media".
Thankfully, the Menlo hotel saw sense and cancelled the event.

For someone who denies being pro-Russian, she really does keep company with some of the worst kind of Russian backers.





Now she is running for president, it probably worked out in Connolly's favour that that event was cancelled.

When did being anti-war change to mean being pro-Russian?

When you start blaming the victim.

If The Catherine encountered a girl being raped, would she:
a) Hand her the can of pepper spray that she's begging for.
b) Lecture her about making peace and how resorting to violence is not a solution.

Seriously. Stoppit. You are coming across as unhinged.

Question for ye boys and girls-
Catherine 🙃 gets elected.
The Dáil and Seanad pass an Act she totally disagrees with which she refuses to sign full stop.

What then?
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.
