Yet another burgarly in Parish

As I'v said previously,we are prisoners in our own homes.Another house in the Parish was  burgled today.It was unoccupied at the time.The house belongs to a priest.
Some one knows who is at this.There is a catch phrase doing the rounds here to describe anonymous reportage of suspicions about neighbours to Social Welfare.It is called "doing a Burton " on your neighbours.
I understand that when Brendan Corish became minister for Social Welfare years ago ,he directed that anonymous "good citizen reports" be binned as they are capable of being used for causing severe distress if used for ulterior motives.
In rural communities Welfare checks immediately arouse suspicion that your neighbour reported you and the imagination runs wild trying to guess who is culpable.Very often the wrong person is blamed and the seeds of distrust ,which have generational application are sown.It is a dangerous and potentially fatal  practicein my view.
That rumbling sound you hear is Brendan Corish revolving in his grave.
We must look out for our neighbours and keep a sharp eye out for  robbers.
 If we know the culprits responsible we should have no hesitation in informing a responsible person up front.
