The ‘Do Nothing Dáil’ - Impotent Government happy to head for hills

Not a single piece of new legislation has been passed by the ‘Do Nothing Dáil’. Enda Kenny is simply presiding over a listless Government, writes Political Editor Daniel McConnell

Enda Kenny looks tired. The bags under the eyes have grown more pronounced; his legendary energy and enthusiasm have visibly waned in recent weeks.

The end of the Dáil term could not have come any sooner for a man who has had a year to forget, but yet clings on to power as head of a Government which has as much potency and power as a eunuch.
