You Won’t Believe What Books Were Behind Michael D. Higgins During His St. Patrick’s Day Address

Ciara Knight

Michael D. Higgins has delivered his annual St. Patrick’s Day address. 

It was a very moving affair, for a number of reasons. The bold decision to place the President in front of a bookshelf has allowed itself to divilment.

Hence, you won’t believe what books were behind* our Prez during his address.

1. Katie Price – You Only Live Once

To be fair, an absolutely stellar piece of literature.

 

2. Olly Murs – Happy Days

A blatant rip of the television programme, we’d expect nothing less from that trilby-wearing freak.

 

3. Presidenting For Dummies

Michael, you absolute divil.

 

4. Justin Bieber – First Step 2 Forever: My Story

A fine book and an even finer use of the number 2 in place of the word ‘to’.

 

5. 50 Shades Of Grey

Michael you absolute divil. “Just minding it for Sabina”, are you?

 

6. Kerry Katona – Still Standing

Screen Shot 2016-03-16 at 18.54.27

Still writing too, thankfully.

 

7. Bun Go Barr

Quality book. Even our President likes to brush up on his Gaeilge.
