Not at all. The job of the county council is to administer the county. The job of the national TD's is to run the country, and govern in the best interests of the whole country.
If that's the case, would you have any objection if the constituency system was abolished and all TDs came from Dublin?

It's up to our local TD's to "look after" us.
That's the mandate on which we elect them.
If Fianna Fail thought they wouldn't get their 3 handy seats in Leix/Offaly, they'd invest more in the region.

Re: Gaelic Football Fundemental Flaw

A defender running towards an attacker is like a Dog chasing after a car....what are they going to do when they catch them? Shoulder charge as they are legally entitled to do if they get alongside them, or try and dispossess them when the attacker tries to either hop or solo the ball. An Ostrich li...

I don't think the Smash robots are dangerous.
They were only having a great laugh at human's expense.
They don't seem that tough, because they looked ready to fall apart when they were rolling around on the ground waving potato peelers and laughing.
