He is one of the few people that regularly makes me laugh out loud. I first came across Garron while doom-scrolling on YouTube, putting off my bedtime by his daft, over-the-top, expletive-filled criticism of awfully-presented Christmas dinners, bungee jumping and anything the English do in general. My Ukrainian wife immediately became besotted with his viral video clips and broad Ballina accent signing off his posts with “Follow me, I’m delicious”.

According to Politico and rehashed by many in the media on both sides of the Atlantic, the world watched as Taoiseach Micheál Martin, ‘the veteran diplomat’, endured ‘an excruciating 45 minutes’ meeting with President Donald Trump in the White House on March 10, and ‘spent long periods sitting in bemused silence, his hands clasped tightly on his thighs and a Mona Lisa smile on his face’ while his host complained about how the United States was being unfairly treated by the rest of the world,...
