Vandalism In Enniscorthy
The recent spate of vandalism in Enniscorthy directed at memorial plaques placed to honour deceased local people is beyond reprehensible. Hopefully the perpetrators will be brought to justice and severely dealt with. These scoundrels didn’t just break a plaque or two, they broke people’s hearts. And hopefully the courts will recognise that.
Enniscorthy Bypass Road
I’m continually fascinated by the fact that this great road, which has helped Enniscorthy so much in terms of removing traffic congestion, was brought back to the old N25 north of Oylegate. Regular delays occur while travelling north or south on this road. Why the planners didn’t see that the sensible thing to do was go south of the village when the road was being designed is beyond me. In a few years time the council will come along and say that this is now urgent and start an entire new process to extend the road which of course will be very costly and will take about 20 years to complete.
The War In Ukraine
Any right-minded person would have to condemn the Russian attack on Ukraine despite taking into consideration the fact that the present government in Ukraine is not as squeaky clean as the Western powers would have us believe. Actions by that government over almost a decade in certain eastern areas of their country genuinely need scrutiny by some impartial authority. However, where that will be found is something that I for one don’t know. Taking all that into consideration, nothing whatsoever justifies the murder and carnage caused by Putin and his top brass who are clearly war criminals at this stage. The worrying aspect of this entire situation is the concern in many circles that the war is really a proxy war between the U.S. and Russia with the unfortunate people of Ukraine caught in the middle.
