HARTE HOPES BRENDAN ISN’T THE ONLY ONE SMILING AFTER THE ELECTION

It was a case of ‘just who has the funniest one-liners’ when Donegal North East election candidate Jimmy Harte met funnyman Brendan O’Carroll.

Harte, known for his famous quips at council meetings, met up with the hilarious Mrs Brown at his show in Derry.

But it wasn’t just the jokes which the pair shared.

Brendan’s mother was also a Labour TD many years ago.

And while the Letterkenny councillor isn’t quite across the finish line just yet, he’s hoping he’s still smiling come next Saturday evening!
