Dr. Tony Holohan for the Áras

    I see the betting on next president includes relatively favourable odds for Dr. T to be the next occupant of the Áras.

    Personally I think he would make a fabulous president. He's an incredibly popular figure amongst the public and really acted as a beacon of reassurance throughout the pandemic.

    It was clear at the time but I think as we look back at this pandemic from a historical point of view the immense personal and professional sacrifices he made will be remembered well.

    Anyone else think he's a good fit for Uachtarán na hEireann?

    Satire is dead. Cervical check scandal, anyone?

    I'd prefer Bono as President

    He certainly likes to pontificate to the lowly masses - so Uachtaran na hEireann would be a good fit for him

    Same, but can't seem him taking it unfortunately.

    If he runs for president will we finally be allowed to discuss the cervical cancer scandal? Or all those who died from covid in nursing homes?

    yep its an absolute joke that anyone thinks he has done a good job in this pandemic or more importantly when dealing with previous issues.

    OMG, when I saw this Thread I sensed hyperventilating from the relaxing the restrictions thread down the corridor :)

    Is maith an scáthán súil charad.

    Worse odds than Mary Davis having another go, which won't happen. Just there to get some easy cash in from people at a ridiculously early stage of the process.

    From the govt that said, 'we never had a bank bailout' it shows we totally ignore previous issues.

    He has no experience in politics, this would be akin to a celebrity presidency

    Although i agree with everything you said about his popularity and being a beacon of reassurance throughout the pandemic I don't think the lines of politics should be crossed or blurred

    Keep flogging the dead horse there,good man. When you've reached Tony's level of cool come back to us.

    He d make a fine president.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,408 ✭✭✭✭Sardonicat


    I think he would be wasted in the Áras.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,191 ✭✭✭RandomViewer

    Bit like Mary McAleese, one of our better presidents.
