Conor McGregor gets furious about the changes in Ireland's political leadership

Conor McGregor is not happy about the unprecedented coalition reshuffle in Ireland that will see Leo Varadkar return as the head of the government, taking over from Micheal Martin as part of the agreement.

While McGregor has managed to stay away from politics for most of his career, it seems the Irishman is miffed at the changes in the Irish leadership. 'The Notorious' is known for speaking his mind freely and that's exactly what he did, posting an angry tweet making his disdain known. He wrote:

"Casually reshuffling leadership of our country is not only bizarre it is f*****g preposterous."

The poster boy of the UFC is seemingly gearing up for a spectacular comeback to the octagon next year. Conor McGregor spent more than a year on the sidelines after his last fight at UFC 264 against Dustin Poirier, where he suffered a nasty leg fracture. He kept busy during his time away from competing in MMA, making his Hollywood debut in a remake of the film, Road House.

While no opponent has officially been confirmed for his return bout, it is strongly rumored that the firebrand lightweight, Michael Chandler, is the frontrunner for the shot at the biggest superstar in the UFC.

Conor McGregor hints at a future stint in politics, expresses interest in running for office

Conor McGregor appears to be entertaining the idea of running for Ireland’s presidency. After the aforementioned tweet, expressing his explicit disapproval of how the Irish political machine turns, it seems the Irishman may want to take matters into his own hands.

In another tweet, McGregor claimed he may run for the Irish presidency. He also stated a lack of accountability from the leaders as to what motivated him, writing:

"I may run for Áras an Uachtaráin. I am still too young to currently. But to sit and over see this nonsense, at a closer view, in a position where a response must be given, is interesting to me. Why not? There's is not a single iota of accountability here with these people.”

Conor McGregor soon followed up with another tweet, iterating his seriousness, stating:

"A 4 year term, or potentially 8 if revoted. I could easily commit fully to this sometime in the future. When eligible. Who knows, but know this. Who else?"

While Conor McGregor has no political experience, he has proven to be a successful businessman outside of the UFC. His 'Proper 12' Irish Whiskey has become extremely profitable, and he sold his majority stake for around $600 million.
