Independent Councillor Jackie Healy-Rae has called out Fianna Fáil over its poor handling of presidential candidate Jim Gavin in the wake of his resignation late on Sunday evening.

Councillor Healy-Rae criticised Fianna Fáil for its poor judgement in not advising Mr Gavin considering the Dublin GAA legend’s obvious lack of political experience.

He said it takes years spent knocking on doors and listening to people in order to be battle-hardened for a political campaign – especially one as bruising as a presidential campaign.

“Politics shouldn’t just be exclusive for a certain amount of people but it does take a certain type of person to be cut out for politics. I think there is great merit always in starting an apprenticeship by working for a politician or a political party doing grassroots work,” he said.

Dr Eamonn Shanahan is retiring after 40 years as a General Practitioner based in Farranfore. Even though he will still offer locum cover, taking a more decisive step back to spend quality time with his wife, Margaret, and their grandchildren is long overdue.

Since 2023, Dr Eamonn has been scaling back his public contracts before retiring from the partnership at Farranfore Medical Practice in 2024. It’s about strictly covering annual leave for the foreseeable future as he adjusts to exiting a career spanning four decades of public service, training, and education.

Since first commencing what Dr Eamonn calls the ‘scaling back’ period, a working day amounted to a 12-hour shift. Getting stricter on a work/life balance routine is a decision he feels quite at ease with.
