Re-evaluation of Sargents Resignation

[maxthedog]

When the Garda are called out to fracas, they are on a win win.

Each protaganist admits to hitting the other and the garda charges all concerned.

Sargant made a blunder by looking for justice.

Instead of accepting the status quo.

"Do not interfer in Garda con jobs"

Plenty to complain about with this government, but I see nothing wrong with the principle of rotation.
It's better than hanging on to a perk of a job for all you're worth, in order to use it to distribute largesse.

The sleazeball politics of the Greens using rotation is to distribute largesse!

I think Sargent was correct in querying why a person who did his civic duty was also charged. Maybe ethically he was wrong, but he did honourfable thing and resigned unlike wee Willie who had to be dragged out shouting and screaming and bringing the dresser with him. Sargent has restored some honour and accountability. Maybe his Protestant training had some influence. I say that as a RC

I'd agree with this. People have problems with FF not changing ministers for too long, and when the Greens change them, they also disagree. Make up your minds please

Yup, spreading around ministerial pensions is such progress.
