Gerry ‘The Monk’ Hutch will stand in the upcoming by-election in Dublin Central in his second bid to become a TD and shake up the political establishment.
The 62-year-old is determined to contest the seat vacated last week following the departure of Fine Gael’s Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe, sources close to Hutch told the Sunday Independent.
