Epic comeback

DAVID NORRIS in his second-coming announced that “it was time for the Irish people to move on”.

He described it as an epic comeback and likened himself to Daniel O’Connell. This display of arrogance is quite incredible. Mr Norris made the right decision when he withdrew from the campaign in August.

He had abused his position by implicating the Seanad in an unsavoury court case in Jerusalem. It has emerged that Mr Norris was in receipt of a disability allowance since 1994. He had no problem in serving as a senator during that period.

He drew this allowance for 16 years which meant that it ceased in 2010. The presidential salary is €250,000 per annum plus expenses. The Áras is obviously the panacea for all ills and even a better rest home than the Seanad.
