    YFG Presidents

    I note that Richard Daly who has declared an interest in running for FG in Kildare is described in another thread as the first president of YFG.
    Is there a definitive list of previous presidents and what they are currently doing?
    I know that Chris O'Malley was President in the 80's became an MEP and ended up running for the Labour Party in the last local elections. He was unsuccessful.

    See, I can tell you mean as a candidate last time, but some crazy people (you know who you are!) could skew this to mean his entire political career, or his time as YFG President.

    Anyways, I'm sure the YFG boyos will be able to help.

    Roy Dooney featured heavily in FG a family at war, as I recall. I think he was Brutons press secretary.

    Roy Dooney also went on to become Chief Executive of the League of Ireland.
    I think Colm Burke is a Cork City Councillor
