Is Ireland really as dark and nasty a place as two former editors of The Irish Catholic , David Quinn and Michael Kelly make it out to be?
Hardly.
Ireland is a fine place to live. There is no paradise on earth but as places to live, surely Ireland is in the Premier League.
Our lack of housing is a scandal but it is a scandal across the world. That does not justify it. We have many problems in Ireland.
Are our politicians as nasty, conniving and tricky as both men seem to describe them? It’s doubtful.
With all the faults and failures of our politicians, Ireland is privileged to have a democracy, which works.
The constant negative comments of both men are, to say the least, tedious.
The world of social media can be an unhelpful place.
What was it the Taoiseach said about X, formerly Twitter?
It is sad news to hear of the death of Michael O’Regan, who died at home yesterday. Michael was a kind person, who was always there to advise and help journalists setting out in the trade.
Sympathy and humble prayer for Michael and his family and friends.
