I'll bet there's a lot of people debating on which is the bad news, that Kehoe's office was burned or that he wasn't in it. :rolleyes:

Paul Kehoes office

That's probably a couple more people out of work due to this vandalism

Paul Kehoe's office is back to normal , and you would'nt even know there was a fire .

Think one of the culprits has a history of problems including arson , and don't think this one was politically motivated . ( thats the word on the street anyway )

Was the other place that was damaged a business ?

from rte.ie:

the offices of Government Chief Whip Paul Kehoe and solicitor Martin Lawlor - who is Fine Gael Director of Elections in Wexford - were damaged in suspected arson attacks.

Gardaí say a file on their investigation is being prepared for the DPP, adding that they had not established a particular motive for the attacks

Sure why wouldn't it be when the taxpayer is paying for it

I see Kehoe has claimed that the attacks were politically motivated. He says he has been receiving hate mail because of the Household charge and the Property Tax so
I have to admit I was wrong in my assessment of the stuation, I always assumed it was because he is a prick.

I'd be guessing insurance will fund the repairs.
