I know its balls, I voted for the greens based on them promising to re-route the M3.
Isnt it the Minister for the Environment that can decide whether to destroy a national monument or not?
I presume that the Greens will take this post. It will be down to them to decide whether to preserve the Lismullen henge by record is the way to go.
However if they choose not to do this what happens?
Wouldnt it have to be preserved on the ground? Therefore the M3 would have to be routed around it.
Just a thought, lets hope they have a few tricks up their sleeves.
