“FG can keep churning out eye-catching initiatives (aka nonsense non-policies) like wet-rooms for drunks in casualty departments. Or they can start asking grown-up questions about how Irish people really want to spend what’s left of our boom”

[…] Crooked Timber mentions the Irish Times coverage of Declan Costello. Not being big into politics since the current generation are uninspiring and having not done Irish history in school, I never read about this very interesting man. It seems he was a great inspiration and who actually managed to change society and engage with the younger generations. Some contract to the lot we have today. It must have been great to live in those times when politics was exciting. When was the last time politics was actually exciting, the birth of the PDs? Mark Waters also points to the CT piece.
