Fun poll: Are you wearing an actual sprig of shamrock today?

Your daily bite-sized ballot break.

IT’S SHAMROCK O’CLOCK (sorry). What with Taoiseach Enda Kenny handing over a bowlful of it to US President Donald Trump and Shamrock Shakes and other three-leafed-themed products doing their usual brisk trade for our national holiday, the shamrock is front and centre today.

But do you actually go to the bother of growing or buying or picking a bit of it and sticking it on your lapel?

Will you be wearing a sprig of real shamrock today?


Poll Results:

I won't (5030)
I will (1284)
I'm wearing a bit of clover - that's the same, right? (168)
