THANK YOU, PRESIDENT HIGGINS ☘️💚 As Michael D. Higgins prepares to leave office, Ireland has just one thing to say: thank you. 🙏 For being a kind soul, a true representative of the Irish people, and a man who led with warmth, poetry, and compassion. In a world full of noise, he was a voice of calm and decency. 🇮🇪 Wishing him all the best in his next chapter. Fair play, Mr Higgins, and go raibh maith agat for everything. 👏 #PresidentHiggins #MichaelDHiggins #MeanwhileInIreland | Meanwhile in
