Re: Re: Cork Transport

None of the political parties are on record as being opposed to the principle of decentralisation; the opposition on this particular plan is a particularly easy target for the main oposition parties as you simply couldn’t have made more of a mess of it no matter how hard you tried.

Prediction major cities outside Dublin have vacant office space at a reasonable price and a new back office function emerges then decentralisation will happen. When you think of Trim, Virginia, Cahersaveen and Charlestown they don’t spring to mind as office locations; they have no professional services such as legals, accounts, PR, business consultancy etc on a scale required to back up large office units.

UK decentralisation has worked very well with locations like Birmingham, Leeds and Manchester being selected.

Any smaller than Athlone would not feature.
