‘It’s an Árd Fheis and All-Ireland hurling final day all together’
“It is an Árd Fheis and All-Ireland hurling final day all together,” said Minister Mary Hanafin who came to the Democratic Convention with an Irish delegation taking part in an international leaders’ forum.
“You have the same feeling you get with the All-Ireland where people are all scrambling for tickets, all the hawkers and hucksters, everybody trying to find a way to get in through the gates. The sheer scale of it is incredible. And yet this is a political event,” she said.
