In the aftermath of Ian Paisley Jr from the NI Assembly I have to ask this.
Why oh why do Irish politicians NEVER resign ?
I mean, no matter how many question marks hang over them about blatently 'dodgy' dealings, none of them have the honour to step aside for the good of the party, people or country and will continue drawing a huge salary in the meantime.
Of course, considering the fawning admiration for those in question from their constituents, no matter what, I suppose the people are at least partially complicit in the farce.
Considering the many UK MPs who have resigned over employing family menbers, non declaration of contributions, possible conflict of interest links with property developers etc, it shames me to look upon our own 'political representatives' as being 'representative' of the people of Ireland.
Ah when the revolution comes.....
