Gaeltacht Minister promoted on first day in Irish college

The 43-year-old, who was appointed last week on his birthday, wore jeans and open shirt like most other students when he arrived at Oideas Gael college in Glencolmcille, Co Donegal.
Despite the criticism he faced last week when appointed as chief Minister for the Irish language, he was put in a high-grade class for his week’s studies.
