@DonnchaLaw Was that also him on the sallins programme? Not a scintilla of regret or remorse. Very disturbing. Important to know how prevalent that perspective is within AGS today.
@KeeganSmith_Law @RoddyQC Iain smith making total sense. Those of us who’ve worked in this area for so long need to, are obliged to, challenge this totally futile policy approach to complex human behaviour. The criminal law has a very small part to play in a rational and compassionate response.
@ULSchoolofLaw@UL@ShaneKil Shane, I want to echo everything written here. I’m amazed at your capacity to support so many as you’ve supported me. Great to have you as a colleague and friend. Enjoy the much deserved rest. Johnny
What an honour to be elected in, and then appointed to a position of power and influence to serve. High salaries and pensions for life. The grubbiness, the sense of entitlement and the whinging. In light of what’s to come for many economically, difficult to stomach.
It should be an honour and a privilege to serve your country at cabinet, not some presumption of power that is earned. It's public service, not something anyone is entitled to.
