Online outrage as Martin will be Taoiseach whether people like it or not




There’s been online outrage at the fact that Fianna Fail’s Micheal Martin is about to become the new Taoiseach of Ireland even though he was only elected on the sixth count.

The more things change, the more they stay the same, in Ireland at least, as Fianna Fail and Fine Gael are being propped up by the Green Party to get into and stay in power.

Fianna Fail leader Micheal Martin will now become Taoiseach until December 2020, as part of a ‘rotating Taoiseach’ agreement that will see Varadkar back in the role from then.

Sinn Fein did win the popular vote in the last election, but were unable to cobble together the 80 seats required to form a Government.
