Maybe a blog is the perfect place to sound off, to complain to get angry.
This blogger is just back from calling on a friend in Dublin's Dominick Street.
Doors blocked up with monstrous material, homeless people sleeping in sheds designed as coal bunkers.
Close by is the Garden of Remembrance where Queen Elizabeth ll laid a wreath to the dead.
Closer still is the Dominican church. Inside the door a pamphlet with a 'personal' note from no less than the Vatican Secretary of State assuring those who take part in a rally for life that the Pope is personally praying fro them.
Beside the pamphlet is Alive.
Both the free news sheet and the rally pamphlet have not a word to say about the conditions of life for people on Dominick Street.
Nowhere in the church a word about the living conditions of the people who live in Dominick Street.
There has to be something wrong with this.
