Another fine mess made by Coalition - Irish Water

It is hard to imagine that things could get any worse for the Government when it comes to its handling of Irish Water.

Then again, the Coalition has an unnerving knack of making life difficult for itself. While it should be riding the crest of a wave with an improved economy and a sharp drop in unemployment, it is still straddling in the opinion polls.

Yesterday’s decision by Eurostat, the EU’s statistics agency, will not help matters.
