Instead of giving us reasons why Heather would actually be a good president, it seems the sole focus is just to attack Catherine's character. It's almost as if... there's no reason why Heather would be a good president...

The issue they love as a gotcha - who she represented as a barrister - actually contradicts their other favourite criticism - that she has views too extreme for a president. It shows that she understands what a job involves and can separate her personal views from what's required.

10 days or so (1 weekend) left before the presidential election. There's no doubt in my mind who I am going to vote for. I have a plan! I'm going to cast my vote before I go to work on Friday 24th. Open from 7am. Otherwise I fear the bank holiday weekend will run away on me! 🎃 👻 🗳

Well, Super Saturday was pretty super! Volunteers came out right across Ireland to talk to their neighbours about why they’re voting for Catherine. This election will come down to turnout, it’s so important that we all get out and vote on October 24. Start thinking about your polling day plans now

Has someone asked Barry Ward or any other FG barrister about who they represented or the cab rank rule? This rubbish from FG and media is embarrassing - and yes you can criticise banks as a politician and have represented them professionally before or after. Why are we allowing disinformation?

Catherine Connolly says there is no 'recognition' of climate emergency in Budget 2026
‘I don’t expect any Budget to sort out those crises, but I do expect a Budget to be put in context of the existential threat posed by climate change.’

"I was elected as the first female Leas Ceann Comhairle because of the backing of all sides of the House" This is when Catherine Connolly came more fully to my attention. She was so competent and totally impartial in that trusted role. Measured and always on top of her brief. Presidential qualities.
