“Dear Voter,
Do you know who you will vote for next Thursday 24th May? Do you even know for sure what the main parties really stand for? Wouldn’t it be handy if you could compare each of them side-by-side, issue-by-issue? Yes, it would.
So to that end, dear voter, I introduce to you Fx3 VoteAssist.”
Sponsored by Fingal Fitted Furniture, this downloadable software will help you to decide by giving scores to the actual polocies that the parties themselves emphasise in their manifestos, and not to their image campaign.
Lets try it.
I recently found a video in YouTube about a proposed development in Dublin Bay. Wasaki Global Corporation plans to build a clover-shaped cluster of mand-made islands, Dubay style. The video is priceless! In particular the fast paced voice at the end!
quoting from the site:
The Dublin Coastal Development.
The solution to Dublin’s property needs. A new city centre. A new Dublin. A new seafront with luxurious properties and an ocean view.
The development will be constructed in five phases:
1. The construction of the South Wall motorway to the proposed development site in Dublin bay.
2. The construction of three artificial islands with a total surface area of over 12 square kilometers.
3. Infrastructure finalised. The tracks for the luas link tramway are laid. The completion of the link to the East Point Toll bridge and the N11.
4. The construction of the impressive central business district, the hub of commerce and industry.
5. The construction of the residential areas. The 2 tiers of apartments and villas. Over 42 thousand separate residences.
Welcome to the future of Dublin. Welcome to your future.

So, what do you think? Will there be a Centra there?
