WATCH: Without a doubt, we’ve found the coolest Mayor in Ireland

Paul Moore

He’s like a dancing version of Jon Snow mixed with Serge from Kasabian.

Aside from having all the fun that comes from wearing a livery collar – that’s the actual name for those fancy chains that Mayors get to wear – it’s important for the highest-ranking official in a municipal government, such as that of a city or a town, to meet the public.

Anniversaries are always a happy occasion and for the people of Armagh, they came out in force to celebrate the 40th birthday of the Rushmere Shopping Centre in Craigavon.

To mark the occasion, they made an all singing, all dancing video that featured the Lord Mayor of Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council, Garath Keating.

Check out his dance moves to iconic tunes like Staying Alive, Beat it, MMMbop, Hey Ya! and Uptown Funk.

Reckon your own local Mayor could top this?
