John McGuirk formerly Fine Gael, formerly Libertas, fomerly National Forum and sometime commenter on Maman Poulet. Now an independent candidate for Cavan Monaghan and by the sounds of it he’s aligned to the Independent Alliance for Change (aka Profit Before People) He’s ‘no oil painting’, I nearly needed a tissue! Not sure where the website [...]
So anyone received a phonecall from one of the 15 full time ‘genuine Libertas volunteers‘ (free lunch provided!) doing phonebanking and making calls to 100,000 households? I know it’s been underway for a few weeks but wonder what the pitch is now as we are well into the campaign? Any Dublin Calls being made or [...]

Just finished watching the Primetime special on Declan Ganley, had to keep reminding myself it was a special on the founder of Libertas and not a certain runaway solicitor (yup am waiting for that one! – it’ll be a popcorn and champagne night.) Katie Hannon has been busy chasing leads and putting questions to Ganley, [...]
Many thanks to Stretch (he reads Hot Press so we don’t have to!) for pointing us to the recent interview with Declan Ganley, the chairperson of Libertas. (Green Ink – Irish blogging Cartoonist extraordinaire) You might have seen Mr. Ganley on the Late Late Show on Friday night last, he has also been in Brussels [...]
