You just have to listen to the Esquire from Enniskerrry --Minister Ross---and his Taoiseach Leo plus 6 years--him and his Castleknock neighbours live six years longer than the people of Blanch and Mulhuddart just across the M50.--talking for a few minutes to realize that they inhabit a different planet than the people of the other Ireland ,with which they have no empathy ,as they gaze down from their ivory towers on rural and provincial drones who pay their inflated wages and keep them in luxury.
In Dunderry ,where I live there is not and never has been public transport of any description.The nearest bus stop is 6 miles away in Navan or Trim.
We are fierce lucky to have a shop and two pubs.The local Hall has closed down after being opened continuously for over 70 years.
Most evenings the place is like a ghost town and were it not for the local GAA Club we might throw our hats at it entirely.
Since the death of the Celtic Tiger many dozens of our people have taken the boat or the plane and if they return at all it is only for a holiday or the death of a family member..
A lot of the misery was and is being inflicted by power hungry politicians who have demonized cigarettes and are now demonizing alcohol.
This is being done on the advice of the medical profession who in general suffer from A God Complex and regard themselves as superior to us mere mortals .
Not all of them mind you but enough to have influence.
I will say no more about this than to point out that Hitler despised smoking and drinking,as well as anyone who didn't fit his view of what a proper Ayrian ought look like.
It is a sad day when the difference between Fianna Fail and Fine Gael is indiscernible and it is impossible to distinguish one from the other and there is a de facto governing agreement between them.Bad for democracy.
And Sinn Fein ,with the physical activists taking time out ,are morphing into what the Workers Party became.
If you doubt me just listen ti one of these new fangled members rabbit on about whatever takes their fancy.
Put the clock back 20 years and you will hear pure Sticky propaganda.
Has anyone the interest in forming a Christian Democrat Party .
