Tributes flow in for the popular politician who is the oldest councillor in Ireland

Independent Councillor Ian McGarvey celebrates his 92nd birthday today. Tributes have been flowing onto his Facebook page since early this morning. Constituents and councillors are among those who are wishing the popular politician the very best. 

Last year, the well-known public representative has been commended by Seanad members as being 'probably the oldest public representative at local level since the foundation of the State.'
