Not one of 134 Irish politicians who replied to a Sky News survey would support Conor McGregor's ambition to become the country's president.

Comments ranged from "not a hope in hell" to "I could not think of anyone more unfit" and "I would genuinely rather we didn't have a president at all".

The former MMA champion, who is appealing a civil case in which a jury found that he raped a woman, needs significant backing before he would be allowed to stand.

McGregor used a St Patrick's Day meeting with Donald Trump in the Oval Office to further his aim to run in the election, which must be held by November.

Days later he formally announced on social media he would seek election and stand on an anti-immigration platform.

Candidates must garner the support of 20 Oireachtas (parliament) members, or the backing of four of Ireland's local authorities in order to stand.

There are 234 Oireachtas members: 174 TDs or members of the lower house, the Dail, and 60 senators.

Sky News asked each one if they would give McGregor a nomination. A total of 104 TDs and 30 senators replied.

Every one of the 134 politicians said they would not support McGregor running. None chose the "maybe" option.

While he probably won't have as much brain damage as boxers, I still doubt he has the mental clarity to hold any political positions.

As usual gotta mctap out.

He butthurt at Muslims thrashing him at UFC, and online.

Fact of the matter is hes still rich af, butthurt wat for ?

Now want to become president konon to kick out muslim immigrants, as if that could revive his career and redeem his reputation.

If comedian also can become president I guess fighter sure stand a chance just that irish kinda dislike him after all the fame that make him arrogant.

Hopefully he will inspire more right wing to win.

Ireland need to kick out immigrants that can’t coexist with the natives.

he's a butt ole, sure he's gonna win

You mean like the Britons?

The UK also need to do something.

Nowadays so many bharats here, and first thing they learned is they're British bharats. Yingerish fked takper, claim British accepted bharat, so can get ploteks.

UK politicians are snakes.

Every politicians promised to do something on immigration before voted in, but do nothing or makes it worse after voted in.

UK needs a revolution.

Rapist with punching old man record most likely will have hard time …

So, puas Walaun kopiah politician better?

I hate local politics too, but I don't let it live rent free in my head until topic about a country far away also want to bring it up

Differentiate Pesal and no Pesal.

Motherland people at most at there busy cari uangs and see can live for good or not.

Bharat is come ,conquer, terrorize, cari pesal, sendiri claim British, go tongkat social benefit, get their 18 generation under same guise of immigration and UNHCR, repeat, and then all turn perogol, peragut, lahanats.

At least the CCP arrive all just for the sake of cari makan.

If eye and experience very small and shallow, suggest go bukake first. I suggest Camden, Kentish, Brixton, Straford, Greenwich, Croydon, Reading, these places to bukake experience to see how these LAHANATS berleluasa there. Like the UK is their home.

In contrast, try mingle places like Collindale, Walthamstow, Bromley, Canary Wharf, Battersea (this moar Malaysian I think), Soho, for how Mainlander and Chinese moar demographic people lives.

The lahanats are literally refugee camp camped together into one big lahanat group. The rest at least are there for pure living and business. Differentiate it maybe, thanks.
