Bit late for them to be having a think-in.
A party favourite for many years. There’s hardly a councillor in the country that hasn’t belted it out at some stage. No aspirant to Leinster House would proceed without it. From Galway to Graceland is an acceptable follow-up.

I think the bit with “still up” might be more accurately described as “rolled into” Morning Ireland.

1977 was on there earlier. The General Election brought a motley array of people to Dáil Éireann who became famous for one thing or the other.
Here’s a snippet of 1st time deppities:
Albert, Bertie, Sean Doherty, Liam Lawlor, Charlie McCreevy, Ruari Quinn, Mark Killalea (Howya Bon) and Pee Flynn among others.
Talk about being a proper country……

Some shower of cunts there
Harsh. You must never have benefitted at the hands of an elected official.

I posted this yesterday in Dublin GAA thread
Entirety of Dublin sideline supplies for 1976 All Ireland Final. Back in the day when you’d not swallow water to hydrate in case you get a “stitch “ so you’d swirl it around your mouth and spit it out.

A mate of mine from Castlebar was telling me about wakes in the area when Flynn would arrive in.
He’d walk up to the corpse and do a hand motion over the body and say……’no - fuck it lads he’s gone, I can do nothing’.
Whether that’s true or not doesn’t matter.
