    I thought that the Emma Kiernan photo was harmless, it showed that she is a bit of a laugh, anyone who would be offended would probably not be on facebook in any case.

    Jaysus it was short! I remember the controversy at the time about that skirt. I remember thinking Big Deal and wasn't it great for a politician to come on and act normal, but now I see it... hmmmm... possibly going a bit far.

    Exactely! She might have a few things to learn as a councilor but it's nice to see someone going out and having a bit of a laugh with their mates... like the rest of us do! Takes away from the traditional stuffy image you have of council chambers!

    Ivor the Engine's son Ronan Callely is standing in the Clontarf area for DCC. His slogan is "We Need Change Now" despite being a member of Fianna Failure.
    His posters are a faily large compared to other candidates because of the irregular shape.
    It also has a facebook logo (copyrighted and up without permission AFAIK).

    Still, if his political skills are anything like his wheel changing skills, then he is already better than daddy! :D

    Why is his campaign office available for rent? Is it really an office or did he just put posters up in an abandoned building....

    Maybe he knows that he won't need it soon!

    Presumably he is only renting it for a short period of time.

    It is a very common thing for county council candidates.

    It is a pity to see her apologising for the picture. She should have said it shows she is human and has a good social life and if anyone was offended by it tough. Be great to see politicians getting a bit braver about that kind of thing. Porn stars can run for office in other countries.

    It is a pity that she felt the need to apologise alright. However, i suspect that her apology was more of a function of the party that she is running for and the fairly socially conservative base they try to appeal to

    Change and FF. Thats a fookin hoot. Plus the flagrant robbing of Obama's sentiment is pathetic to the exterme.

    His litrature is apparently covered in attacks on the government, and rhetoric, which would be similar to that of a Fgers. Incredible, if it wasnt for FF, daddy Callely would not be in the Oireachtas at the moment
