Since Brian Cowen has run away from the Lisbon debate and left it to Michael O'Leary of RyanAir to be the principle spokesman for the Yes campaign, it is no surprise that it has become a dirty fight. Oddly, Cowen is using a man who describes his government as 'incompetent' and 'feckless' to fight on his behalf.
Having previously called it 'undemocratic' to force the Irish to vote again, why is Mr O'Leary involved at all? A big clue might have been given when he admitted on television:
“One of the reasons that I am campaigning for a ‘yes’ vote is that our Government is incompetent, yet I need to persuade them to sell me Aer Lingus.”
So the main proponent of the Yes campaign is doing so, by his own admission, to indebt the Irish Government into reversing their block of his takeover bid.
Come on Ireland, kick this grubby Yes campaign to the curb.
