Don’t blame him. Why bother getting involved in politics anymore, people dredge up the first time you had a can in a field 40 years ago.
Ah
Shame
Wasn’t the worst
A pity. Would have been a hell of a lot more suitable than some of the names being thrown around
Horrible prick
He approached FF
FF told him they’d rather run Hanafin than open up old Covid wounds
He dropped out.
*this is my speculation*
This guy’s ego is off the charts; he puts the skeletons in his closet and thinks he can blame others for his own shocking decisons.which have made him toxic for to be come president.
With the value of hindsight we know all the stuff we got wrong about Covid (both areas we were too lax and too strict) but I feel like Tony Holohan was going along with things the same as we all were at the time.
If someone like Michael J. Ryan ran, he’d have bigger questions to answer given his senior role in the WHO.
Ah yeah I’m sure that’s the reason. Not that you hadn’t a notion of getting nominations never mind electability
An ego the size of Munster.
Not enough power in the presidency for Tony.
He wouldn’t be able to play rEDIT: Still seems the curtain twitchers are still Holohan fanboys. Lads freaking out about seeing a D reg in Wexford.eal life The Sims like he did during covid.

Media have a lot to answer for here. They try to tear everyone down and their families, for click bait headlines.
As someone here put it eloquently- “you’d have to have a humiliation kink to put yourself through it”.
He’s an embarrassment to his family.
Very wise decision and while I suppose his family might well have been abused by anti-vaccine nutters I think that’s only partly why it’s a wise decision to not run.
Even if I broadly agree with or see sense in many of his actions during C19, he and others deliberately lied about the science. That’s not on, it has reduced trust in science at a time when there was already a mob of nuts and disingenuous con artists attacking science, vaccines etc. It was also completely unnecessary as the facts would absolutely have been enough to convince people of behaving the way they needed to in the initial phases where there was a dearth of masks and it was just to save money for businesses over health of employees in the latter stages when they covered up the airborne nature of covid.
Eamon Ryan for President!
Sounds like he has something he doesn’t want his family to find out about.
The abuses exhibited in this post show that Tony Holohan is right.
