€300,000 spent on a bike shed in Dublin to accommodate half a dozen bikes, and understandably there is universal outrage and wall to wall media coverage.
Yet, nearly 5 times that was spent on the Collooney-Bellaghy project before the plug was mysteriously pulled and not a word out of any media outlet in Sligo, not a line in either the Sligo Champion or Sligo Weekender, nor a single sentence uttered on Ocean FM!!!
Has a vow of silence being taken ??, whose feathers are they afraid of ruffling??
What sayeth our 3 Govt TDs ???? 2 of whom are Ministers by the way
What about our County Councillors?. Some of them do have plenty to say about everything and anything when the mood takes them. Who put a muzzle on them?
To paraphrase Shakespeare "....something is rotten in the County of Sligo!..."
