Newstalk DailyPresidency or Party? What’s next for Mary Lou McDonald—and Sinn Féin?With the summer recess looming, Sinn Féin leads in the opinion polls. The party has led a noisy — and at times confrontational — left-wing opposition to the coalition government. And its leader enjoys strong approval ratings and widespread first-name recognition across Ireland.So why is Mary Lou McDonald now hinting at a possible new role? Just months ago, when asked about running for president, the Dublin Central TD was quick to dismiss the idea: “It won’t be me.” This week, however, she declined to rule out the possibility entirely.What’s changed? Could Sinn Féin nominate...

In The NewsWhat now for Sinn Féin and Mary Lou McDonald?Four years ago, Sinn Féin changed the landscape of Irish politics by securing the highest share of first preference votes in the 2020 general election and breaking Ireland’s two-party system.The question among many voters in those weeks before the pandemic hit was not if Mary Lou McDonald would become taoiseach of this country, but when.Jump forward four years, and the party has emerged from the 2024 general election with 39 seats, just two more than its 2020 haul. Sinn Féin TDs are now facing up to five more years on the Opposition benc...

Daily Politics from the New StatesmanSinn Féin's growing painsIn 2020, Sinn Féin, a left-wing party born out of Ireland’s nationalist movement, claimed victory. At the time Ireland’s two major parties, Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, went into coalition with each other, preventing Sinn Fein from forming a government. Sinn Fein’s leader, Mary-Lou McDonald proudly claimed that she would be the first female Taoiseach.Four years later, support for the left-wing has markedly dropped, scandals have surrounded them on both sides of the border, and party political identities have become blurred.But when Ireland heads to the polls next wee...
