A new style of dynamic manager is needed to live in the city and ensure it is properly run.
WE NEED to stop ignoring Dublin. And leta��s be clear: what is good for Dublin is very good for Ireland. In no way is that an anti-rural statement. Far from it.
Dublin and its associated region, especially the industrial ring just outside the M50, is the engine which keeps Ireland moving. Monies generated here enter national coffers to run regional hospitals, develop rural tourism, fund local authorities to maintain their areas, protect our water, wildlife, beautiful landscapes and much, much more.
