@kevinjoehughes @thomasniblock @Armagh_GAA @PearseOgArmagh @crossrangers @UlsterUniGAA Was well liked in the Showgrounds too on that great Willie McStay @sligorovers team. Scored the only goal in the 1/4 final v Cobh Ramblers in the FAI cup-winning run in '94.

@thomasniblock @Armagh_GAA @PearseOgArmagh @crossrangers @UlsterUniGAA I remember going up to ask him for his autograph in Armagh leisure centre as a young lad in front of all his work mates and he was class act. There was many a summer holiday doing the houlee houlee celebration on the fence at Granemore football field after scoring a goal

Constructive engagement from @paulgivan in west Belfast

@NotGerCanning @JustDra93 Technically, yes, but in practice would such a candidate enjoy the repeated endorsement of the Dáil as CC?

@sob999 @JustDra93 Thanks for the clarification.. so technically a person may only be elected by the constituents only once in a decades long Dáil career- even if their constituents weren't happy with them?

Can someone more educated than me tell me why people are automatically re-elected? What are the rules on this? Just curious about it, never knew it existed #GeneralElection2024 #GE #GE2024

@NotGerCanning @JustDra93 No restriction on the number of times you can be ceann comhairle once you have the support of the Dáil. This is the second time Seán Ó Fearghaíl is being automatically returned.

@JustDra93 He's been the Ceann Comhairle (speaker of the house) for the last 4 years.. for doing this job you are automatically re elected to the Dáil in the next election. I believe you can only be Ceann Comhairle once so cannot not be automatically re elected more than once

@MarkLTighe Brilliant! Appeal to Healy-Rae loyalists. A No 2 as good as a number if the recipient of the No 1 is elected with a large surplus (acknowledging random element in the distribution of the surplus). Scores twice by attracting media/social media attention as @JohnBurns43 notes

Great to see this ambition. 😆

@gavreilly Boxer Moran's thumping surplus a factor in the Paul Hogan outcome I would guess without looking at the numbers.

@TommyMeskill @RTENewsPaulC @rtenews Huge congrats, Tommy. Best of luck!

@RTENewsPaulC @rtenews Thanks Paul! 👌

Delighted for @TommyMeskill who is the new London Correspondent for @rtenews - a talented journalist and a great colleague. He's jumping in at the deep end, with UK elections approaching, but it won't faze him in the slightest. Beir bua
