Diarmuid O'Flynn is the founder of the Ballyhea Says No campaign, and in 2014 began working as one of MEP Luke Ming Flanagan's parliamentary assistants. He was the Irish Examiner{{'}}s chief hurling correspondent until his relocation to Brussels in 2014.[1] As founder of the Ballyhea Says No protest movement, which has been marching against payments to bondholders since 2011 and has been described by journalist Michael Clifford as "the conscience of a nation",[2][3] O'Flynn has repeatedly called for debt justice for Ireland. Among those to have endorsed his position are the literary editor Fintan O'Toole[4] and economists Constantin Gurdgiev and Stephen Kinsella.[2]

In June 2011, he embarked on a three-day run then participated in a short march in Dublin before hand-delivering a petition to the Fine Gael-Labour coalition government.[5] In August that year, he went on a seven-day “bread and water” fast, losing about a stone in weight.[6]

He ran as a candidate in the South constituency at the 2014 European Parliament election, where he was considered a "dark horse" challenger, received the support of Ireland's top business website Finfacts and nearly won a seat.[7][8] In November 2014, he was appointed parliamentary assistant to Midlands–North-West MEP Luke 'Ming' Flanagan.[9]
