Fine Gael’s conduct in this election campaign has been extraordinary. At the outset it devised a budget that broke promises to keep social welfare payments in step at least with inflation, the failure over 13 years to provide houses for those who need them, the spectacular wastage of public money, the mountains of our cash to buy our votes, the inclusion of at least one thug among its candidates and a determination to shout down opponents in debates. Well done.
