While the Kerry politician has our fullest sympathy, you’ve got to love that headline.

Michael Healy-Rae was expected back at work this morning after being attacked by a cow on a farm on Sunday.

The newly-elected Kerry TD has taken to Cork University Hospital to have his injuries fully assessed, amid concerns he had suffered a fracture.

However, a source close to the family revealed that he was fine and would be back in work today.

It is not known how he managed to anger the cow.
