NOTHING DRIVES THE country mad like a bit of free grub.

This morning McDonald’s held another one of their hugely successful #FreeBreakfastFriday events, with free McMuffins as far as the eye can see.

Demand for an aul Sausage and Egg McMuffin was so high on the Belgard Road in Tallaght that the Gardaí had to step in to help with some traffic issues.

McWitness Paula Morrin said that a nearby polling station was quiet “by comparison”.

Sure look, you can’t vote on an empty stomach.
