Attractive politicians have their say on the poles

And suddenly poles and lampposts have come into their own.

It began at midnight, at least for those who keep the law. A Fine Gael politician had posters on view on Rathgar Road before midnight.

But now right across the country we have faces beaming down on top of us, suggesting we vote for them.

And have you noticed, whatever about their politics, all those human blemishes, spots, marks and ugly bumps have all been airbrushed?

Are politicians really so attractive as the poles show?
