Joe Higgins (Dublin West, Socialist Party)

The Taoiseach announced a by-election in Dublin West on 27 October, which means the writ needs to be moved and ministerial orders made. I notice today with some alarm that the poles are rapidly filling up with posters of the growing list of presidential wannabees, which might indicate that in Dublin West there will be no space for the peasants if the Taoiseach delays.
