  2. Wow - apparently *none* of the #Gardaí are #pursuit trained to same standards as officers in GB / NI (or other European countries).

    How even can a country operate like that?

    Folk will be constantly at the mercy of reckless drivers or outright criminals / sociopaths. I have also seen quite a few Irish tooters over the years pointing this out

    Sorting this out won't be an easy task - #roads in GB were quite lawless until things got cleaned up starting around late 1990s,. #CarCulture is strong, stubborn and resilient, and older #motorists still resent limitations of their "freedom" and many vote for parties such as Reform / Restore out of spite..

  3. A quotation from Shakespeare

    ORSINO: O, when mine eyes did see Olivia first,
       Methought she purged the air of pestilence.
       That instant was I turned into a hart,
       And my desires, like fell and cruel hounds,
       E’er since pursue me.

    William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist and poet
    Twelfth Night, Act 1, sc. 1, l. 20ff (1.1.20-24) (1601)
