In Clonmel, we have witnessed first hand how career politicians spout waffle, spin and generally try to deflect from issues they claim to know nothing about, but as time goes on, that rhetoric doesn't age well, and as we have seen with the former mayor Ritchie Molloy, it can be embarrassing,   

It’s not all over yet in Dundrum, County Tipperary. On Tuesday 13/08/2024 over eighty ‘international Protection Applicants’ were moved into Dundrum house against the wishes of local people who have protested for months outside of the gates of this historic house. Others are scheduled to follow. How many nobody knows but it is likely that it will be more than the total population of the village. Citizens of Dundrum will become a minority within their own community. Is it any wonder that this issue united the entire community. People naturally want their environment to remain safe and for the character of the town and sense of community to be maintained.
