I'm spoiling my vote in the upcoming Irish Presidential Election.

I'm writing the name of a woman who should have been on the ballot: Maria Steen.

A mother of five, a barrister and an architect, very well spoken and considerate, intelligent, charming and above all discreet.

She would have been a very respectable President, but she was blocked from getting on the ballot by the establishment, and instead we're likely to get another cringe loudmouth communist.
