More Kerry senators, higher yes vote

It is surely no coincidence that Kerry, with the highest percentage of senators (five) per head of population in the country, had the highest yes vote for abolition of the Seanad in Munster.

As for Mr Kenny, he would do well to remember the late Charles de Gaulle’s dictum — that there is nothing wrong with having a referendum provided one realises that it quickly transfers itself into becoming a vote on the proposer instead of the proposal.
