The famous dancer announced participation in the Ireland president’s election

The world -famous Irish dancer Michael Fletleley during a trial in a civil case about his possession, revealed his desire to run for the presidency. The election has been scheduled for autumn this year. The Guardian reported this Friday, July 25th.

According to the publication, the 67-year-old artist is ready to change their residence area for participating in the election campaign, returning to Ireland from Monaco.

Ireland law requires the election of a new president no later than 60 days before November 11, when the 14-year-old period of two terms of the current President Michael Giggins will end. However, it should be noted that the position of the Ireland president plays a ceremonial role primarily, with a limited influence on the country’s political life.

Fletleley, who gained international popularity thanks to participating in the Lord of the Dance and Riverdance, to become a candidate, must receive support for either 20 members of the parliament or four local authorities. Its main rivals are former journalist and European Commissioner Mayrid McGinness and independent candidate Katherine Konnolly.

Earlier it was reported that former UFC champion Conor McGregor announced his desire to become the president of Ireland.

It was also known that Mikhail Martin returned to the post of Ireland’s Prime Minister. He will go to the government for three years, and Simon Harris, the head of Fena Gal, will be his representative. After that, they will change positions, and Harris will take the Prime Minister for the last two years of five years.
