A Voter’s Lament.
So we’n have neither the PR pleasure of choosing which candidates deserve second or lower preferences, or none.
Nor the intricate PR delights of watching, analysing and predicting the transfers.
Unless, God help us, ‘Jim Gavin’ gets more votes than the gap between HH and CC.

Is iad FF agus FG na páirtithe is mó ionadaíochta sna húdaráis áitiúla ib2025, mar a bhí i 2018, agus mar a bhí i 2011, agus mar a bhí le fada roimhe sin.

Must read article (originally published in the FT) by Israeli historian Fania Oz-Salzburger begins with a statement of the obvious reality that must be the key to a just and lasting peace:
“‘Here’s a truth to reckon with: neither Israelis nor Palestinians are going to disappear any time soon.”

Thanks for the tip-off. Just cycled its entire length. A very good job done on the route from Phibsborough to the Liffey.
Hoping it won’t take too long to lay out the next stretch.🤞
