Edaein O’Connell: Dubs and Americans looked at us as if we were speaking in tongues – but were we Kerry babblers embarrassed? By God, no

There’s a video currently circulating on the internet of Danny Healy-Rae praising his 1997 Nokia phone.
By all visual evidence, the phone is on its last legs. He claims it makes and takes calls but I wouldn’t be surprised if he’d communicate better with the electorate by using a string and two paper cups. Danny doesn’t believe in smartphones and “scrolling up and scrolling down”, but I do. So, when I initially watched the video, I also had to consume the comments underneath it.
