Irish Politics is Flagging...
There was laughter in the Dail today as the Irish tricolour had gone missing.
Mayo TD Michael Ring told the Dail's sittings that the tricolour must be flying on government buildings when the parliament is sitting,but it was nowhere to be seen this morning.
The chamber erupted into laughter when the Fine Gael backbencher blamed the incident on SF's parliamentary leader Caoimghin O'Caolain.
Ceann Comhairle Rory O'Hanlon said he understood there was "a difficulty with the rope to suspend the flag and it was being attended to as a matter of urgency."
I'm sure it did raise a laugh in the Dail.Those politicians are laughing all the way to the bank and at the taxpayer's expense.
