Mayor concerned gardaí 'not taking action' against 'illegal and unacceptable behaviour'

She should open a boards account, you see people posting all the time about how 'if I was in charge such and such would be illegal, all scumbags would be in jail, the dole would ve stopped completely, blah blah blah.'

But it's all Walter Mitty BS, implementing actual solutions is much much harder than lip service. You need manpower and money for one thing and the gardai don't have much of either.

I'll bet if someone asked her to go sort out a mob of drunken beach goers she's say she doesn't get paid enough for that, and she makes probably 4x a gardai salary when her paid expenses are included.

Sounds like she got a shock when she came down from the ivory tower and saw how the other half live.

She's well paid and has been well paid by the state for some time. She is looking for sound bites and not solutions. There are some serious tulips at council level in Galway and she will prove herself to be another.

Issue resolves itself automatically in a few weeks with bad weather and vacinated people returning indoors. Not exactly a big task Mayor, setting up softballs already.
