Writing today in the Irish Independent in the comments section addressing the issues around the manner in which all sides conduct their campaigns in this forthcoming and previous Referendums and elections, be they local or national, as also the issues surroundings alleged foreign interference by way of advertisements and commentary or financial contributions to influence the outcome in favour of one side or the other !
Ian O’Doherty puts forward very well the somewhat obvious observations concerning the never-ending hypocrisy of all sides in these campaigns as to the purity of their conduct and presentation of the issues as opposed to supposed misconduct and erroneous presentation of their opposition’s campaigning!
