For almost 2 decades I have been aware of the awesome extent of Ivana Bacik's ambition.
Ivana Bacik has found the cash to put up a banner advertisement on the online version of the Irish Times, alledging that only 1 in 3 of TCD graduates voted in the last Senate elections.

It appears to me, that Ivana moving on from her failure to win a seat in the European Parliament is now setting her sights on the Senate. Oh dear - whose seat is she after?
Will it be David's or Shane's? For as a TCD graduate she can only seat on the education panel unless she wants to go on the rubber chicken circuit and find voters all over the country. read full story / add a comment
