Stardust Campaigner to Run in Dublin

The maths in Dublin North Central just got more complicated with the announcement that Antoinette Keegan, a survivor of the Stardust Tragedy, will seek election in the coming battle. The candidate will be seeking to raise the pressure on the government to launch an enquiry into the tragedy.

Dublin North Central is a four seater and is home to Sean Haughey, Ivor Callely, Finian McGrath and Richard Bruton. With Derek McDowell and Green Bronwen Maher also in the field plus two Sinn Fein candidates, this would already be a tricky constituency to win in. Whether Antoinette Keegan can win is debatable, but she will certainly gain profile for this issue.
