Isn’t it being held in INEC? That’s certainly not a small venue – unless they’ve partitioned it. Again, most of the delegates are probably in the hotel bars or eateries at any given time. They’ll be whipped in for Gilmore’s big speech at 8:30.
The thing that struck me about the shots of the attendance I saw on the main RTÉ1 news last night was that the great majority of the delegates seemed to be either grey, balding or completely hairless – older than me in fact, and I’m on the shady side of 50 now.
