Letters to the Editor: Seanad Éireann is for independent voices

One writer is urging readers to contact the 218 TDs and senators who will be voting in the Seanad by-election  and tell them who we wish for them to vote for

The upcoming Seanad by-election is to fill the seat held by Sinn Féin's Niall Ó Donnghaile up to January of this year. Picture: Maxwells.

If media speculation is to be believed, the Seanad by-election to fill the seat held by Sinn Féin’s Niall Ó Donnghaile up to January this year will handily be won by a Green Party candidate.

This, of course, follows the Green Party’s acquiescence to Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael on two seats up for grabs at Seanad by-elections in 2021 — the spoils of coalition Government it seems.
