I would begin a process of demolition in Dublin, demolishing our ugliest buildings.

The Central Bank
Hawkins House... apparently it has a penthouse flat, complete with an avocado bathroom suite and florid wallpaper.
Apollo House... Durrty
The Screen Cinema Got wanked-off to Kill-Bill in there. Might save it for nostalgic reasons.
Phibsboro Shopping Centre... why can't Northsiders have nice things?

Ah now, the Central Bank's OK.

I think hawkins house is scheduled to be knocked down and to be replaced by a new office block or an apartment block.
The system we have now means its hardly worth it for a woman on welfare
to ask for money from the father .
Some claim money and some do not.

I would round up people over the age of 80 and study them to determine what nutrients can be extracted.

Nobody can post more than 10 times on a thread about NI/IRA/Loyalists.

Lollipop ladies who operate away from a designated pedestrian crossing could be imprisoned and people who press the pedestrian crossing button ten times in quick succession could be shot on the spot.

Why would you roll your eyes at sanitary towels being free? It's a basic requirement for much of the population.

Food is a basic requirement.

Should it be free?

The dole should be reduced on a sliding scale the longer you avail on it.

Exception being if you are over 60s and have worked a min of 30 years

Abortion to be legalised - if you don't like it you don't have to avail of it but let other have their choice

BMW or Audi drivers who fail to use their indicators to have their cars impounded and be forced to drive a nissan micra for a period of 5 years

Rapists to be chemically castrated

Any asshole with more than 5 convictions to be jailed for life -"troubled background or not"

Every new house built in the country for the next 5 years to have a maximum purchase price of 300k

Luas drivers to be fired and rehired at a lower wage

Any refugue/asylum seekers found guilty of a crime to be immediately deported - if we let you in, play by our rules

Religion to have no role in education

Organ donation to be opt out rather than opt in

if you are over 20 and play Pokemon Go, those who don't reserve the right to judge you

Auro enrolment in pension scheme

Middle management in HSE to be withdrawn immediately - money needs to be better spend

Mental health service unit in each town - max waiting list of 6 weeks, with emergency access to those who need it

Increase rights for single fathers

Mayo to be excluded from the All Ireland Football Championship for the next 5 years

I'd cut the tongues right out of the heads of the insensitive morons who tell strangers struggling with misfortunes that the strangers "shoulda" or "shouldnta" done something in the past. I'd continue with the hands of the people who begrudge paying their fair share to support a decent society.
