The five who voted in favour - Danny Healy-Rae, his son Johnny Healy-Rae, Michael Cahill, Bobby O'Connell and Michael O'Shea - are all publicans, former publicans or connected to the pub trade.

So, so embarrassing. We actually have a lower limit than the UK and are up to 4 in the fewest fatalities in Europe (from being close to the top).

Shameful but predictable from the Healey Raes and their compatriots . In many ways indicitive of the self centred and wholly inappropriate way that family entwine their personal and political lives to the benefit of their own business interests .
Is it more than a coincidence that the family's political mantra for generations was and is " better roads for Kerry " whilst their family road contractor business tops the list of paid contractors on Kerry County Council..................

Getting very close to becoming a third world country here .
