,The next Government will most likely be a Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael coalition propped up by "sensible" independents. Although a handful of seats are yet to be filled, it is expected that Fianna Fáil will be the largest party with 48 seats, Fine Gael will have 38 TDs and Sinn Féin will 39 seats. With a likely total of 86 seats, Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael will be within touching distance of the 87 seats needed for a majority in the new Dáil. Although Galway West TD Mairéad Farrell believes the party could still end up in Government, Irish Independent Political Correspondent John Downing thinks the numbers are against the party. “The figures don’t add up,” he told Breakfast Briefing. “Certainly, Sinn Féin went into this election in very bad shape and had, in real terms, a rather good election - given the shape they were in as they entered it. “[Government], it’s not going to happen.” Following the near total wipeout of the Green Party, attention has turned towards the Labour Party and the Social Democrats are potential Government partners. It would be, Mr Downing believes, a “problematic” coalition for several reasons. “Things are going to have to be ratified by the membership - whatever deals are made,” he said. “The other difficulty is that we have, effectively, two labour parties; there’s the Labour Party and the Social Democrats - which is just another word for a Labour Party - and they’re going to be watching each other like hawks, pushing and over. “If one crowd goes in and the other stays out - that’s a recipe for disaster for the crowd who go in. “The smaller party who goes into a coalition Government is effectively feeding itself into the political mill.” ________________________________________________________________________________________________ 📱 Have you downloaded the Newstalk app? - Find the app in the Google Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thisisaim.newstalk&hl=en_IE&gl=US - Find the app via Apple: https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/newstalk-106-108-fm/id372643826 #️⃣ SUBSCRIBE to the Newstalk social channels: - YOUTUBE | youtube.com/@Newstalkfm - TWITTER | twitter.com/newstalkfm - INSTAGRAM | instagram.com/newstalkfm/ - FACEBOOK | facebook.com/newstalkfm - WEBSITE | https://www.newstalk.com/ 🎧 PODCAST - listen at your leisure: newstalk.com/podcasts - iTunes: search for Newstalk in your app! - Spotify: search for Newstalk for our latest pods and news - Or wherever you get your podcasts! 📱GET IN TOUCH WITH NEWSTALK - WhatsApp: get in touch on 0871400106

,'Maybe I should have ran for politician when I was 20'. Gerry Hutch talks hiking, affordable housing, and regrets, on the latest episode of Henry's Front Bench. Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch's General Election campaign has met mixed responses – but one group whose vote he will definitely have is the staff at Corinthians Boxing Club. Corinthians Boxing Club’s Head Coach Kevin Corcoran told The Hard Shoulder about Mr Hutch’s generosity to their community organisation. “Gerald bought the building in Buckingham Street there 25 years ago outright and he gave us that building for one euro a years’ rent - that's all we have to pay,” he said. “Now, he doesn't collect the rent, obviously, but he gave us the building to run as a boxing club free of charge, basically.” Mr Corcoran said the club would not exist with Mr Hutch’s help. “Everyone knows rents, especially in the inner city, are crazy at the moment,” he said. “We probably be paying between €2,000 to €4,000 per month rent for that building, and we couldn't afford that. “We charge the kids €2 per night for training.” The coach said Mr Hutch very rarely visits the club, but when he’s in Ireland he always stops by. “When he comes home, he pops down and says hello, he comes in and says hello to the lads and has a look at the kids training,” he said. Mr Corcoran said The Monk is a “very popular man” in the area. “There's no other man, TD, anything that would buy a building and give it away to the local community,” he said. Mr Corcoran said Mr Hutch’s popularity could be due to his help with the boxing club, but he’s sure “people have their own reasons”. The local community aren’t concerned with Mr Hutch’s possible involvement in organised crime, he said. “We only see the side of Gerald as the very helpful person that he is,” Mr Corcoran said. “We only know the man that helps us out, gives us a club for free.” ________________________________________________________________________________________________ 📱 Have you downloaded the Newstalk app? - Find the app in the Google Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thisisaim.newstalk&hl=en_IE&gl=US - Find the app via Apple: https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/newstalk-106-108-fm/id372643826 #️⃣ SUBSCRIBE to the Newstalk social channels: - YOUTUBE | youtube.com/@Newstalkfm - TWITTER | twitter.com/newstalkfm - INSTAGRAM | instagram.com/newstalkfm/ - FACEBOOK | facebook.com/newstalkfm - WEBSITE | https://www.newstalk.com/ 🎧 PODCAST - listen at your leisure: newstalk.com/podcasts - iTunes: search for Newstalk in your app! - Spotify: search for Newstalk for our latest pods and news - Or wherever you get your podcasts! 📱GET IN TOUCH WITH NEWSTALK - WhatsApp: get in touch on 0871400106
