‘Corca Dhuibhne’ is on the map after John Paul Phelan, the junior local government minister signed a statutory instrument to change how the electoral area in west Kerry is referred to in the upcoming local elections.

THE contemptible arrogance of the Government seems to know no bounds. Last year, Eamon Ó Cuív announced that the name of Dingle was being changed to An Daingean on all road signs, whether the people of Dingle liked it or not.

What is happening in Kerry, with the obliteration of the name of Dingle on signposts throughout the county, is not just a waste of public money and time.

EAMON Ó CUIV, Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs, seems to spend so much of his time explaining/defending his asinine decision concerning the naming of Dingle that the Government should rename his post as the Minister for An Daingean (or should that be the Minister for Dingle?)
