Stay at home

AS an Irishman living in the Chicago area I am appalled at the financial cesspool at home (and, yes, we have our problems here, too).

I believe it would be the height of irresponsibility for Fianna Fáil politicians — any of them — to engage in their annual and outlandishly expensive junkets to the US and other parts of the world.

I have in the past personally witnessed the inordinately high cost of such trips and would appeal to all of those politicians to stay at home.
