Three years after opening the MAC’s facade has begun to crumble, a bit like a similarly surnamed politician…

Too many old Folks at the Top of our political parties.

McDonnell ; He looks older than he is and thats old

Adams; Old man

McGuinness; Old man

Robinson; Old Man

Nesbit; He is not Young, Is he Old.

Forde; Old Man

Kenny (Fine Gael) ;Old Man.

Old Men run our Political establishment.

We need an Injection of Youth.

A new generation of politicians would be welcome … but ones who genuinely challenge old assumptions, not ones who hero-worship their elders.

Tends to happen with vanity projects, where the point is itself.

We need an injection of politicians whose minds aren’t programmed to simple “I’m agin it….” thinking, no matter what age, trgr, but youth, as you suggest, would be a bit of a start……..

And, if such a thing is possible, politicians without so much historical baggage they are politically crippled and unable to interact without simmering acrimony. It would be good to find new faces coming from a sensible left, as with your suggestions about Labour on another thread.

I see the Mac are now looking for £1 million from us to carry out repairs. Did it not come with any warranty? Surely the Builder or the Architect are the people who should be paying for the repairs?

Anyone else in these times would sue and in then meantime, make do and mend. A couple of buckets of black epoxy would do the job rightly.
