‘I’d have to think about it’ – Catherine Connolly responds to question on whether she would employ convicted rapist in Áras buff.ly/fm8eb0t

IRELAND, we need to be ready for what will happen in the next few short days regarding presidential nominations. There is a high probability that the non-cartel candidates, Maria Steen and Nick Delahunty will be blocked from the ballot. Maria already has a block of nominations from the Dail and Senate, and I expect that number will rise but the Irish political cartel are doing everything in their power to stop her from getting the required 20 nominations. If that happens, make sure you are registered to vote. Make sure you are able to cast a ballot on the day of the election and be ready to ‘spoil’ your vote. That means writing anything you want on it but not casting a vote for any of the ‘curated’ candidates. I would suggest a ‘D’ for Democracy but whatever strikes you at the time. While such a vote won’t be counted for any of the candidates that will be on the ballot, it will be counted as a ‘spoiled vote’. If there are enough spoiled votes it will send a very powerful message to the political cartel that their game is up. It will also send a message that will be heard around the world, a message that the Irish people have had it with being taken for granted 🇮🇪☘️
