On 7 July 2010, he resigned the Fianna Fáil parliamentary party whip, along with Labhrás Ó Murchú and Jim Walsh, in protest at the Civil Partnership and Certain Rights and Obligations of Cohabitants Act 2010 which gave some legal recognition to same-sex couples. He rejoined the Fianna Fáil parliamentary party on 23 November 2010. Hanafin lost his seat at the 2011 Seanad election. He was nominated to the Industrial and Commercial Panel for the 2016 Seanad elections but was unsuccessful in regaining a Seanad seat. In September 2015, Hanafin was appointed as Honorary Consul to the Russian Federation in Thurles, County Tipperary. He resigned as Honorary Consul of the Russian Federation over the invasion of Ukraine. He stated no conflict is worth a human life and called for an immediate cessation of the conflict and peace talks. At the Fianna Fáil Árd Fheis in 2017, Hanafin advocated again for retention of the 8th Amendment, linking abortion to a lack of supply of babies for adoption. In November 2017, Hanafin entered talks with serving politicians about establishing a rural, anti-abortion political party. He was an unsuccessful Fianna Fáil candidate at the 2020 Seanad election. He was called to the Bar of Ireland in 2019. (en)
