    I suggest that the next time the following question is in the poll.

    You are asleep in your bed at 3.am You hear someone attempting to gain entry to your home.

    Do you ring.
    1. Enda Kenny
    2. Alan Shatter
    3. Claire Daly
    4. Mick Wallace
    5. Gerry Adams
    6. The Gardai at 999

    I think I know who the people would have most confidence in ringing.

    In my opinion the Irish people are a fair minded people and do not deserve the politicians WE vote for. The Gardai are badly managed, too much political control and can be very slow in dealing with disciplinary cases. Many time Gardai who get off in the early years with breaches of discipline subsequently mess up big time later on. Hopefully a new Commissioner will lead not follow

    No need to ask the question. This is from the article:
    "One third of people said they didn’t trust the force, though gardaí score significantly higher than ministers, TDs and journalists."
