I'll vote for any TD/party that brings a motion in the Oireachtas to remove Judge Martin Nolan, his sentencing is a danger to society. That poor woman.
Josh Conlon (19) has been given a fully-suspended sentence for his role in a two-hour attack, during which a woman was tied up, beaten with a broom handle and had boiling water poured over her.

The poor young victim, it has a horrendous and vicious assault with lifelong injury & trauma.
Matthew O'Connell (L) & Evan Vella (R), who were teenagers when they took part in a violent "mob" attack in a Dublin park which left an Italian student with serious injuries including a broken jaw and nerve damage, have avoided prison terms.

He cannot be serious?
Is he expecting the Metro trains to finish their urban route and then take on an intercity trip to Cork or Galway?
The LUAS has the 1400mm gauge because it's the most common internationally for rolling stock, and InterCity trains don't need to run on it.
Architect and environmentalist Duncan Stewart has said the proposed MetroLink project should be "withdrawn" and "redesigned" because of the carbon emissions that would be generated during construction
