Do we need to Hutch a plan to redesign our voting system?

GERRY “The Monk" Hutch is like the cat with nine lives.

- 

He claims poverty and deprivation forced him into criminality. Yet he recently made it publicly clear he does not want to see young people from his native north inner city of Dublin following the same.

Gardai are still investigating the Monk for allegedly heading the Hutch crime organisation. He claims he is innocent.

The Special Criminal Court also cleared him of the Regency Hotel murder of Kinahan henchman David Byrne and were dubious about the evidence of the State's star witness against him, the ex-Sinn Fein councillor Jonathan Dowdall.

Whether you like Hutch or not, he is a very clever guy. Whatever money he made from crime years ago, he invested it wisely and built up a property portfolio stretching from Dublin, London to Lanzarote, Bulgaria and the United States.

He is a multi millionaire who has never forgotten his humble beginnings.
