According to the paper Dublin City Council is waging a €100,000 battle to remove the “menace” from our streets. ’this has never been carried out in south central previously’ a dramatic representative for the council said. It’s like Game of Thrones with litter wardens.
Enda’s been to Spain, Eamon’s been up north and Martin McGuinness has been in the IRA. Sorry, slip of the tongue there, meant to say McGuinness has been talking about the IFA.

What happens when we die? And what is a ’Bono’?
