Re: Re: Look at de state of Cork, like!

an impassioned and honestly raw opinion there Lex, and you are 100% right but its frustrating as hell to see what COULD be done as opposed to what WILL be done and more importantly, what bureaucracy is preventing. Local cutting edge newspaper The Echo is today stating that the €25m announced by CIE for development of Kent station now has no definite timeline (secret code for Cork aint getting it) and further on in the article says the €25m now depends on CIE’s profits from sale of the 17 acre site of Horgans Quay?? It seems to be that there will be some action on it by the end of the year and Joe Gavin is either very much in favour of getting the thing moving or is doing wonderful PR Spin.

There is a long list of woes as to what Cork is missing out on. I argee that we have to get on and see the positives and do something about it but the only way politicians etc take notice is by endangering their votes and swaying public opinion. Get a website going to register peoples names and opinions, send it in to County Hall and more importantly, get it out to the media. A general election aint that far away. 😎
