So the Irish president is throwing out his tea?
What will the Irish people do without TEA?
What will happen to all the scones?

I don't know much about him but I like the guy. He made me laugh.
Higgins has campaigned for human rights and written of conflict in many parts of the world, including such areas as Nicaragua, Chile, Cambodia, El Salvador, Iraq and Somalia. He spoke in the Dáil in defence of the 2010 Gaza Freedom Flotilla.[69] In recognition of his work for peace with justice in many parts of the world, he became the first recipient of the Seán MacBride Peace Prize of the International Peace Bureau in Helsinki in 1992.[70] He was a noted critic of U.S. foreign policy under the Ronald Reagan administration. In 2005, in response to a column for The Irish Times by Kevin Myers about the riots then erupting across immigrant areas in France and Britain, he said "the contents of his column today go beyond his usually crafted cowardice, staying one step on the safe side of prosecution for incitement to hatred or racism."[71]
As well as having a successful political career Higgins has also had a career as a poet, author and broadcaster. He has contributed widely to political and philosophical journals on many subjects including ideology, the sociology of literature, clientism in politics, regionalism and the politics of the media. His personal notes and work books reside at the National Library of Ireland.[72]

This guy is extremely well respected here in Ireland; he's eloquent, knowledgeable, approachable and a fine representative for a country that is suffering by being put through the mill financially by external sources. He always maintains such a respectful air in all he says and does.
But way to go Uachtarán na hÉireann for standing up for and being so passionate and animated about the rights of the common man...and for calling someone a w****r live on the radio!
