The Kettle's Boyled: Low standards in public office - Opinion - Roscommon Herald (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Colm Brophy is the proverbial safe pair of hands, a good choice for the role of Minister of State with responsibility for Migration in the current government. That job is seen as a political hot potato with the potential for a dose of runaway populism, trying to keep everybody happy while also managing to meet our obligations under all the international laws and charters that apply to this minefield. He has handled it well so far. Minister Brophy has introduced proposed changes to existing proto
The Kettle's Boyled: We don’t need trains to Connolly Station - Opinion - Roscommon Herald (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Here in North Roscommon, most of our freight is moved by road, as is a lot of the transport of people. The economic corridor between Sligo and Dublin, where a lot of this activity takes place, has suffered from years of neglect by decision-makers. Roads and rail have been poorly resourced, with speed and efficiency dropping to third-world standards at times. Politicians seem not to be too bothered, tending to clamour for unattainable and often impractical solutions while ignoring the blindingly
The Kettle's Boyled: Great people make good things happen - Opinion - Roscommon Herald (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If I remember my history lessons, the Irish rebellion of 1641 backfired when the English Parliament introduced the Act for the Settling of Ireland in 1652. The Act imposed penalties including death and land confiscation on people who took part in the rebellion and indeed on anyone even vaguely involved with it.

The Kettle's Boyled: Too many people are dying on Irish roads - Opinion - Roscommon Herald (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A motorcyclist died during a road race in North County Dublin on the first Sunday of July. The ‘Skerries 100’ is a prestigious motorcycling competition that has attracted some of the sport’s biggest names. Joey Dunlop is probably the best known, he won the event a staggering 27 times. Dunlop lost his life in Estonia during a road race there in 2000. The news of the July fatality, following the death of another rider at the Tandragee 100 in Armagh a week earlier, brought a predictable clamour for
The Kettle's Boyled: I’d like to give junior ministers a plug - Opinion - Roscommon Herald (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I was away in mid-June and missed an important local event. Normally somebody will text me if a story is breaking locally, but this one passed me by and it was over before I knew it. That was a pity, because I could have jumped on a plane and rushed to Roscommon to get there in time. I am sorry I missed that important ceremony, but I should have been paying attention, checking up on planned engagements by ministers and junior ministers. It was my own fault. Anyone lucky enough to have been in or
