An Taisce subjected to a display of ignorance
Perhaps people are looking for scapegoats because their own inability to recognise bad planning and development demands that they belittle others.
If planners appear to hold An Taisce's views on planning matters above those of the Irish Rural Dwellers Association (IRDA), it could be that they make more sense. For years An Taisce warned of the unplanned sprawl in Dublin. An Taisce received similar abuse yet it was right.
