    My grandfather was born in 1905 and lived to the ripe old age of 94. He was a Garda stationed in Dun Laoghaire and later Deans Grange but in his final years held the distinction of being the last surviving member of the Dublin Metropolitan Police (DMP). in 1996, 3 years before he passed, we brought him to see 'Michael Collins' in the Savoy cinema on O'Connell Street. On the steps outside after the film I asked him what he thought. With tears in his eyes he said: What time is the next show? I think I'd like to see it again!

No offence but our people are asked to be squeezed even further. A Christian community. Now, 14 thousand Irish people, homeless. Yet we are expected to take care of people beyond our pale.
