Twitter is really outdoing itself at the moment with #DannyHealyRae.
In case you missed it, Kerry Independent TD Danny Healy-Rae addressed the Dáil yesterday on climate change where he voiced the unpopular opinion that “God above is in charge of the weather and we here can’t do anything about it”. Yeah.
See for yourself below in this video from Newstalk’s Páraic Gallagher.
Obviously the people of Ireland had to have their say on the situation.

I just had a scary thought – how many TDs in the Dail still believe in Santa? #DannyHealyRae

The hilarity of ‘God’s in charge of the weather’ meant the equally fantastic ‘combustible engine’ slipped through the net #DannyHealyRae ????

Dear International Media, Some clarification on #DannyHealyRae
Ireland elects a small quota of “Parody Politicians” each election.
Thanks.— Richard Dalton ???????? (@richardadalton) May 5, 2016
I have never laughed as much as I have to the reaction tweets of #DannyHealyRae attempting to decry climate change. pic.twitter.com/tkWMbtVWlG
