Give us a choice if we want President or not

I REFER to Fergus Finlay’s recent article (Opinion, June 21).

Apart from the piece about Rory McIlroy, he later urges us to behold the Presidency not to look at the cost of this office in case we would lessen the democratic nature of the state.

He does not mention that we have the most democraticised nation in Europe. Would he look at the situation in comparing the number of Dáil members to population, versus the UK? We have three times the representation.
