The former MMA fighter and Sinn Féin councillor Holohan was suspended from the party for five months following comments he made on his ‘No Shame’ podcast at the start of this year. A note to Sinn Féin members in Dublin South-West this evening said the decision to suspend all party activities in that area for the time being came “following some recent political actions taken by some members in the constituency which the Ard Chomhairle views with deep concern”.

Elected Representatives should continue to represent their constituents fully and continue to work from their offices under covid rules. The comments made by the councillor that emerged prior to the general election earlier this year led to his temporary suspension from the party.
