Conor McGregor pulls out of Ireland’s presidential race | Ireland
Conor McGregor, a former mixed martial arts warrior, withdrew from Ireland’s presidential elections and complained that the rules of candidacy were a “Bosphorus” that prevented a real democratic competition.
“After a careful reflection and after consulting my family on Monday morning, I withdraw my candidacy from this presidential race.” “This was not an easy decision, but it’s a right decision right now.”
The Presidency of Ireland is largely a symbolic, seven -year task, but McGregor promised to prevent migration to support the “Irish culture ve and to görme return to people”.
On October 24, he hoped to follow Donald Trump’s social media, including 10.7 million followers of Donald Trump’s support for Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Tucker Carlson and other distant US commentators also supported the former athlete.
McGregor encountered a war uphill to enter the ballot – a candidate must be nominated by 20 parliamentary members or four local authorities – and the process was “fixed” in favor of the establishment candidates.
This week, he addressed several councils with other independent hopes, but analysts said the chances of gaining any approval was fine.
37 -year -old McGregor, as president Michael D Higgins’ success campaign emphasized injustice in the rules of conformity of the constitution. “This democratic deficit against the will of the Irish people was successfully enlarged with my interest.”
Last week, Deputy Prime Minister and Fine Gael leader Simon Harris said McGregor’s “the worst represents”.
In a questionnaire, only 7% of voters – and inadequate popular support for McGregor, which is negligible support between legislators and local authorities.
However, McGregor said that his campaign “catalyzes için a mobilization against a malicious organization and the mainstream media. He said: “Now the Irish patriots who return to our Irish and historical origins are very visible and have a very visible and vocal movement – I greet them. The current has changed and this tide cannot be kept back!”
McGregor objected to a polarized figure in Ireland and a civilian court that damaged a woman who accused her of rape last year.
Other celebrities, who stated that they are interested in running for the president, contain former dancer Michael Flatley and a musician and charity campaign Bob Geldof before leaving school.
So far there are three approved candidates: a former government Minister Heather Humphreys, who runs for Fine Gael; Jim Gavin, former director of Dublin’s Gaelic football team, who ran for Fianna Fáil; And Catherine Connolly, a member of the parliamentary member supported by small leftist parties, including social democrats, people before labor and snow.
The main opposition party Sinn Féin did not decide to take back his candidate or Connolly.
An idea survey at the weekend made Humphreys with 22% support, Gavin progressed to the second and Connolly 17% with 18%.
