Has anyone else been struck by the amazing similarities between the current Irish and British Governments?
Both governments have been in power for quite a while and look doomed at the next election.
Both heads of government were leaders in waiting, became prime ministers in mid-term and have, by and large, failed dismally to deliver on their promise.
Both Speakers have been removed in an expenses scandal.
There are glaring differences too, but what other similarities can we expect to surface in the future?
For example, is it only a matter of time before an Irish newspaper publishes a full list of expenses claimed by our T.D.'s......................? And what will happen then......?
