Blueshirts makes a mountain out of a debacle
A dozen or so Fine Gaelers were today set to burst out of the sumptuous Westport abode where they are holed up under high security for their parliamentary gathering to conquer the peak — though victims of drive-by disability cuts will no doubt hope the trek doubles as an act of atonement. Unfortunately, Enda Kenny was planning to remain on Planet Blueshirt — aka the luxurious Knockranny Hotel — and not venture out into the real world with his fellow FGers.
This is probably a mistake as the so-called think-in gathering has exposed Fine Gael as being in a decidedly “Two Nations” mindset. While the bitter recessionary winds continue to swirl outside, on Planet Blueshirt it is still all Riverdancing and Hungarian mud wraps as if the economic collapse never happened.
