Sir, – I am tempted to start a new political party called the “Bean an Tí” party. There will be no financial experts, no legal experts, no management experts, no religious experts – in fact no experts of any kind. Members will be made up of all the women of this country who, for at least the last 50 years, have run the family homes without running the country into debt and thereby enabled the whole show to carry on. Take a look and see where male domination has led us. Mná na hÉireann, get your act together! – Yours, etc,
CATHERINE SWEENEY,
Avoca,
