Display of parochialism

Dear sir - I was saddened to read Mr. John Donohoe's sneering account of the Save Tara March in last week's Meath Chronicle. This was a childish display of parochial pique and your newspaper is the less for having published it.

Is Mr. Donohoe suggesting that only those who live within a certain limit have the right to object to a particular piece of legislation? If that is the case, where does that criteria place objectors to such issues as global warming, the Iraq war or famine in Africa?

Shame on you, Mr. Donohoe.

Yours,

Susan Brennan,
