Crowning The Harp

Enda Kenny, probable winner of the forthcoming Irish General Election, warmly welcomes the Queen's impending, yet for some reason still unannounced, State Visit to the Irish Republic, one of extremely few countries to which she has never been, and look at the other ones.

He is not the only one. See here:

Newtownshandrum Junior B Hurling Team 2010 With the Junior B trip to Las Vegas only 2 months away the local Fianna Fail Cumann have come on board with a novel fundraiser. If you buy a ticket for 10 Euro, you enter a draw to win the chance to meet Brian Cowen and the Queen when she visits Dublin next year. Fantastic prize so everyone buy your tickets and all proceeds go to the Junior B holiday fund.

Fianna Fáil raises funds, both for itself and for its local hurling team, by raffling tickets to meet the Queen, whom it calls simply "the Queen". Well, of course it does.
