Wheelchair victim of new Christmas spirit

I WONDER where Cork’s Christmas spirit was one day this week when a young man buying gifts for family and friends was accidentally knocked from his wheelchair – not once, but twice –

What’s even sadder is that virtually nobody stopped to help, leaving him sprawled in both the street and a major store.

In this season of peace and goodwill, is it not an appalling indictment of our society and further evidence that our priorities have shifted beyond all recognition?
