Fianna Fail

Tomorrow sees polling stations open across the country for the Referendum on the Eighth Amendment.

Politicians in Clare have been involved with campaigns on either side of the debate. Among those canvassing for a Yes vote is Fianna Fáil’s Timmy Dooley who received a letter this week from an individual on the No side of the campaign which remarked that “it’s a pity that you were not aborted”.

The party’s Communications spokesperson was referred to as ‘Donkey Dooley’ in the letter which he shared on social media.
