As the Irish Labour party were saying yesterday, it really is the worst of both worlds. Not only will Irelands most historic area be bulldozed, but those most for it, the commuters, will have to wait ten maybe twenty times longer to get their motorway than if they had chosen an alternative route. On top of a busy motorway there will also be a large floodlit interchange within view of the hill also.
Thats Ireland for you. They are building a tunnel under Dublins northside and only realised (cough cough) near the completion that its not high enough for European trucks. So with a few months to go they wanted to raise the roof, literally.
There's some serious cashing in to be done. I'm sure even the printing industry will make a small fortune changing tourist blurb to remove the 'un' from 'unspoilt countryside'.
Irish politics makes Father Ted look like a civics lesson, one of the last banana republics in Europe!
