You’d admire Bacik willingness to continually put herself forward for election/rejection
Hazel Chu be interesting to see how she gets on

The Green vote in the constituency is middle-class people disillusioned with FFG. More inclined towards Sleepy Eamon type FG on bikes than woke eco-justice types.

You think McDowell will run?
Would have doubted it but he was fairly prominent in opposition to the Metro link which a few journos interpreted as priming for another run.

He’s wanted back in since 2011. FG were sort of interested but he had the FF/PD stench on him and FGers don’t forgive his role with them in the 80s. The field has been too crowded since then really.
Ivan’s Baciks grandfather Karel Bacik founded the revived Waterford Crystal in 1947. He had run glass factories in Czechoslovakia but the Communists took then over and he fled.

Chu isn’t guaranteed the nomination. Think she’ll get it in the end but she pissed off a lot of the local and national membership with the recent Seanad run.

Isn’t she rumoured to be defecting to the SDs
Did she bite off more than she could Chu?

He’s eyeing it up alright

Just in time for the next gravy train.
To be fair to MMD I don’t think he went in to politics for a “gravy train”

You didn’t I see .
McDowell turns 70 on Saturday. That’s judicial office ruled out for one of the Law Library’s heaviest hitters. He might as well have another run at it.
Greens may chu choose Byrne
Wonder would Hazel Chu run as independent then?
