Political litter louts are no joke

I THOROUGHLY enjoyed the spoof article by your political columnist and former Fianna Fail organiser Noel Whelan (Irish Examiner, May 13).

Political litter louts are no joke

He referred to strange public notices in newspapers. No, he was not referring to the advertisements for the local and European elections which set the ratepayers back a few euro and in which two-thirds of the population have no interest. He was, in fact, writing about the gifts of education and colour that political postering brings to towns and cities.

I read this column on the bus from Dublin airport to the city centre last Thursday. Noel is right. The posters are wonderful as he says, they give us a profile of the candidates.
