Over the weekend, Fine Gael's Heather Humphreys has been keen to highlight her ties with supporters of her competitor, Catherine Connolly.

It comes as former Labour leader Alan Kelly confirms today that he will be voting for the Fine Gael candidate.

Finding out that Jared Leto kept doing his method acting shit and insisted on staying in character on the set of Tron Ares and would only answer to the name of Ares is so funny, like making a big ass douche of yourself for the third Tron movie where you play “computer program that gains feelings”

A great bit from Al Pacino’s autobiography when Diane Keaton finds out he’s broke.

Extract from page 248 of Al Pacino’s 2024 autobiography where Diane Keaton goes to speak with his entertainment lawyer.

Notable from listening back to the This Week debate that Heather Humphreys no longer seems to be interested in making a positive case for voting for her. It's all just attacks on Connolly.
