lol, my mom voted for him because he's so old the state won't have to pay his presidents pension for very long after his 7 years are up :laugh: (If he even lasts the 7 years!) He's like a real life leprechaun

Yeah but I just mean in general, the story barely features on BBC News and anything I read leading up the election was just about Martin McGuinness

Our president does feck all anyway, I don't even see the point in us having one. Our Taoiseach is the one who runs the country
