Most are elected in specific seats with specific issues but there is a left alliance led by People Before Profit but other independents Come from the right and support FF or FG - the Healey-Rae brothers in Kerry are a good example basically just FF as they support that sort of localised popularise republicanism unique to Kerry. (And plenty of brown envelopes handed over - Father Ted was really based on these guys lol)!

I read about the Healy-Raes and they really look like everything the world culturally patronised Ireland for for so long.

The best thing about this entire election was watching Renua lose all of their seats.

They live in their 'Kingdom' in County Kerry and don't get out much, I personally find them hilarious because I think they are being ironic with the way they get on but it isn't funny when a dynasty like this dominate a constituency for so long, and they are just basically independent Fianna Failers. |
