We need an Irish Water, just not the one we have
Through the winter and the spring the efforts of Irish Water to install water meters was never very far from the headlines, whether it was installers being ‘harassed’ or a senior minister or two feeling that they were being hijacked or prevented from leaving meetings that they had.
Like the Circus in Rome, our attention has been diverted by Greece and all its woes, but only temporarily. By starting its election campaign and by hijacking their appearance at the Banking Inquiry in the interests of electioneering, Enda Kenny and others have effectively made Irish Water an election issue.
