What Kind Of Week Has It Been? Who Writes This Crap? May 26, 2012. The Night The Music Died: Eurovision 2012 LIVE! 11:20pm – And there’s a mercifully sans Jedward headpiece Grainne Seoige wrapping things up. Thanks a million to everyone who’s looked in tonight, hope you’ve enjoyed the night’s craic. Stockholm next year, yeah? 11:13pm – They’re probably sending couriers with bits of the set to Sweden already. 11:11pm – They don’t even have Lena doing the results in Germany! 10:59pm – FUMBLE! 10:40pm ̵...

The Floating Voter: March 2011
http://donegalvoter.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Casting an eye over the 2011 election happenings in both constituencies in County Donegal. There was an error in this gadget. Monday, March 28, 2011. On the back burner. With the General Election well and truly over, this blog has been put on the back burner for now. I might add some updates on how the Donegal candidates in the Senate elections get on and perhaps, if time permits will commence updates on local political issues. Or you can follow me on Twitter @LiamPort. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

1st July, 2012 | What Kind Of Week Has It Been?
https://whatkindofweekhasitbeen.wordpress.com/2012/07/01/1st-july-2012
What Kind Of Week Has It Been? Who Writes This Crap? July 1, 2012. 1st July, 2012. It was, by all accounts, a momentous occasion. Two more unlikely people you could not imagine meeting, and while it got a bit awkward at times it truly was an honour to witness such an historic reach across the spectrum. I am of course referring to will.i.am meeting Miriam Margolyes. But in Belfast this week a similarly momentous conflab took place, between Queen Elizabeth and Martin McGuinness. Placed it ceremonially on B...

What Kind Of Week Has It Been? Who Writes This Crap? July 8, 2012. 8th July, 2012. Dear News Gods, thank you for your bounty this week. I’m not one for hyperbolic statements, but this week’s news has possibly been the best, bizarrest, most lunatic string of stories ever. First, to the politics section. In Poland the Mayor of Poznan guaranteed a seat on any council in Ireland after he put up ads. Either he means this. Or we’re going to need bigger signs. You expect a conservative Republican gun-toting red...

What Kind Of Week Has It Been? Who Writes This Crap? July 15, 2012. 15th July, 2012. On Twelfth Night, Belfast is hardly ever a midsummer night’s dream. Plenty of toil and trouble though. It’s the kind of thing that would render a visiting committee from another planet speechless. One group of people celebrate culture by burning posters of Polish people. And using Beach Boys tunes for evil. Outside a Church, while another group either get the hell out of Dodge or make an absolute hames of everything.

The Floating Voter: Who gained most from FF slump in Donegal?
http://donegalvoter.blogspot.com/2011/02/who-gained-most-from-ff-slump-in.html
Casting an eye over the 2011 election happenings in both constituencies in County Donegal. There was an error in this gadget. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Who gained most from FF slump in Donegal? Both Pearse Doherty in Donegal SW and Padraig MacLochlainn in Donegal NE came extremely close to taking a seat in the 2007 General Election and certainly the Fianna Fáil slump helped them as they both topped the poll and took seats for Sinn Féin. Labour meanwhile are likely to be disappointed, despite making sign...
