While Don the Con happily trashes the US economy and constitution and the Russians import North Koreans to fight on Europe's borders, here in Ireland there's very little drama because there's very little happening.

Take a United Ireland. It should happen, it will happen, but Micheal Martin now says we won't be having a border poll by 2030.

So far from moving forward on this, we won't even be asking the question.

Everything in Ireland goes on the long finger - if kicking the can down the road was an Olympic sport, we'd be a nation of Usain Bolts.

We don't really have a Government, we have a large number of very well-paid caretakers.
