You know dc - you just helped me understand why we don't do resignations - it's because we call for them so often, and frequently with such slender justification, nobody pays any heed anymore

Time to ask that question again, Was Gerry in the IRA,

Does this mean that any of our politicians who attend a Catholic Church, a Mosque or Portmarnock Golf Club should resign also?

No-one has said that this is a resigning matter. DC seems to be using this non-sequitur as a ploy for distracting attention from the core issue.

absolutely, even those whom don't attend such venues but don't force the resignations of others in their ranks that they know secretly do must resign...

Who cares, theres a pub near me that doesnt allow women drink there, one or 2 local TD's can be spotted in there from time to time.

Personally, I'd take a dim view of any politico attending Portmarnock Golf Club in a public capacity.

I don't get your church/mosque connection at all.
