Sir, – The Dean of St Patrick’s Cathedral the Very Revd Victor Stacey suggests we call the new bridge that will carry the Luas over the Liffey, “The Swift Bridge” (April 24th).What a splendid proposal; such a name would serve as a constant reminder of what those rapacious Celtic tiger yahoos did to enhance the capital’s reputation as the wild west of European finance during those heady, “light touch regulation” days. But is the good Dean up to “speed” (Luas) on the deadline for submissions to the Commemorative Naming Committee? It was April 19th. – Yours, etc,
