Y'know when some minister makes a decision, most people don't like it, most recently the closure of garda stations, then someone somewhere has to say "if I was in charge I'd do this and that instead"

So AH if the average Joe was actually in charge and has the final say with everything, what do you think the country would be like? Better? Worse?

The pessimist says "Things are terrible, they can't get any worse". The optimist says "Oh yes they can".

Before he or she was a minister, he or she was a regular Joe.

If the people of After Hours were the people in question then everyone's mother would be in trouble.

Way worse, the independent is the biggest selling newspaper in the country, imagine if indyman got to make decisions? The place would be in an aweful mess, bit like Zimbabwe

There's one smoking a joint
And that one's got spots
If I had my way
I'd have all of you shot.
