Result brings hope of a new beginning for our nation
DID you have a feeling of “today is the first day of the rest of my life” as you emerged from your slumbers this morning?
If you did then you were one of several hundreds of thousands, indeed probably millions, of your compatriots at home and abroad who, as a consequence of the weekend’s events are, for the first time in a long while, looking forward to whatever the future might bring with a renewed hope and spring in their step. If you didn’t have that particular pleasure this morning, then I sympathise with you in your detachment from the day-to-day banalities of the community of which you are a member.
