Has he supported Jimmy Saville and child abuse? If thatās the case, thatās certainly not good. I just presumed he was against paedophilia and sex abuse. To be honest, it sounds like low level smear tactics to connect him to saville like that because he actually has a chance of ousting some lefty party from a seat. I just did a quick Google search and seems he made some unsavoury incorrect tweets before the full facts came out but im not an expert on the saville case, sounds like youāve more insight and knowledge to it.
Anyway fingers crossed Niall isnāt now a Saville supporter, hopefully he clarifies this point for you if he wins.
Thats fair reasoning. Went with the local gobshite in the locals. All other candidates in a big town far away and wouldnt give a shit about us kittle people. I went with mcnamara too. He had a great covid. Common sense
If someone wins the Mayoral election and also wins a seat on the council, they get to co-opt someone into the council seat in their place. They basically pick someone to take their place.
Itās often a party loyalist/lackie/relative drafted in as the replacement.
Donāt forget about the greatest and truest political statement of them all - āall politics is localā.
If yer man fixed the footpath or helped install the zebra crossing at the local school heāll get the scratch, irrespective of his views on Gaza, Brexit or Ukraine. Not saying thatās right but itās the way of the world with local elections at least.
