Politicians love spin but what goes around comes around

Karma seems to be the buzz word as politicians’ pasts come back to haunt them.

Bluff Transport Minister Leo Varadkar sheepishly told the Dáil he was late because he had been stuck in traffic, while hapless Environment Minister Phil Hogan was under ‘pressure’ all week, which was ironic because the lack of water pressure in Dublin taps was the cause of the controversy.

Feck-it-up Phil would have been drowning in a sea of his own calamity, except that a third of the population of the country were hard-pressed to get half-a-cup of water after 8pm, due to dodgy chemicals being pumped into supply plants.
