I'm curious to see how Roderic O'Gorman manages to juggle the ministry he has now, with being party leader.
I don't see it going well.

Went to my old secondary school, 2 years younger than me but I've no memory of him.

Leo also went and is a year older than me. One of the few not-white students was more noticeable.

Though of the past pupils Jedward might have the best politics.

So he's gay and now he's the leader of the green party.
The online trolls will have a field day.

I just had a snoop on facebook, I don't recall the name though I was very quiet when I was there I didn't talk to many people beyond the ones in my own year who I had to.

I left in 98 so yeah, maybe a 1 year overlap if any. Though if he was there when Leo was then I was there too.

It's strange that the Sunday World is the paper here that sticks the boot into the far right the most.

Can’t find the right thread, but there was a discussion a while back on if migrants/non-irish are more involved in crime… based on prison population (and I know that’s not a conclusive measure of crime) it would seem not..
But lots of detail hidden in an aggregate figure like that
