EU Elections 2019: Dublin constituency

The two big beasts of Irish politics have adopted different approaches in the unpredictable Dublin constituency of the European Parliament elections.Barry Andrews ; Lynn Boylan ; Gillian Brien ; Ciarán Cuffe ; Clare Daly ; Mark Durkan ; Frances Fitzgerald ; Gary Gannon ; Ben Gilroy ; Rita Harrold ; Alice-Mary Higgins ; Hermann Kelly ; Tony Bosco Lowth ; Aisling McNiffe ; Mark Mullan ; Eamonn Murphy ; Gemma O'Doherty ; Éilis Ryan ; Alex White .

Dublin is now a four-seater constituency, having gained an additional seat since 2014. Its boundary remains unchanged and comprises the counties of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Fingal and South Dublin, as well as the city of Dublin. The Dublin Fingal TD has a very well-recognised brand due to some stellar Dáil performances. In her campaign video, Daly defines herself as someone who would stand-up for ordinary people against a broken EU.

Green Party candidate Ciarán Cuffe thinks some form of a transfer pact"makes sense". The councillor, and former junior minister, has described this contest as"the climate election", but he has a battle on his hands given that the party's message is no longer unique. The Greens hope they will be transfer-friendly.

Her running-mate, Mark Durkan, is a former Westminster MP and Northern Ireland finance minister. Fine Gael's message is that Dubliners have a chance to ensure that citizens in the North are not left without representation after Brexit by backing the former SDLP leader. Another former minister in the running is Labour Party's Alex White. Securing his party nomination back in January has given White something of a first-mover advantage. He's hoping Labour's slate of local election candidates can help get his campaign message across: as an MEP, he would build alliances and get things done.

Councillor Gary Gannon, a rising star of the Social Democrats, hopes to challenge the established parties. Low numbers in the national opinion polls belie a stronger party presence in the capital. 32-year-old Gannon, a slick social media mover on Twitter and Instagram, has the capacity to attract younger voters. He is trying to mobilise those politicised by recent referendums, to organise those volunteers into monster canvasses and to surprise the pundits on the day of the count.

Go on Rob Nan, speaking the truth

There’s no pubs but we have seven chemists if you have a headache and need an Aspro lololol. Great sense of humour, that raised a chuckle !

Blackspot? Don't they have buses, roads, taxis to get to places of employment ?

Look at the flowing traffic, always a green light in any Éire.

Farage's Brexit party leads UK poll on EU electionsIn the UK, the newly-formed Brexit Party, which wants a clean break from the EU, has doubled its lead over other British parties in an opinion poll on the European parliament elections. Hilarious that the supreme euroskeptic's greatest and only political success is in the euro parliament. Voters turning to a party with no manifesto and that won’t define its only policy which is “Brexit.” It’s not like people have voted for something that was completely undefined and where a campaign didn’t have a specific prospectus on what leaving the EU would mean....oh wait.... Just shows how the government don't listen. Brexit needs you. It's not what's on the left or right but doing what's right for DEMOCRACY VOTE, support brexitparty_uk Nigel Farage & Team doing great speeches,Very professional. Change politics is coming
