#FF's #Aras25 review to take twice as long as long as its campaign. 😂🤣
#JimGavin was selected as Fianna Fáil presidential candidate on 9 September. He quit on 5 October, i.e. 26 days later.
#FiannaFail announced its review into its failed campaign on 15 October. #RTÉ #RTEnews reports that the review won't be ready until the end of the first week in December, i.e. 5 Dec. That's 51 days.

If we ever again elect a male president, I hope that he too might create a new precedent, by wearing something other than the standard male formal attire of a dark suit. Maybe a #shalwarkameez, or a #kilt, or #shorts.
But please, not like #ReggieBlackrockRoad, who seems to have lost his trousers. No #PresidentsInYfronts please 🙄
(Reggie was planning a run for the #Aras25, but gave up his #ReggieForPresident tour after he lost his trousers)
Compare and contrast.

Catherine Connolly is now formally the 10th President of Ireland.
This is how to do a Presidential inauguration ceremony.
As laid down in our Constitution.
