| Description | Controversial gay senator David Norris is to re-enter Ireland’s Presidential election and will put his name to the people next month.
Norris is expected to confirm his latest decision to run when he appear on Irish television’s flagship show The Late Late next Friday night.
The Norris u-turn has come about after he featured prominently in a number of opinion polls.
Independent members of the Irish parliament and some County Councilors have also confirmed that they will back a new Norris bid.
The Senator was forced to withdraw from the Presidential election last month after a series of damning revelations about his past and his views on young gay men.
Just back in Ireland after a holiday abroad, Norris has discussed his strategy with a number of close advisors over the weekend. |
