Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4As public contracts are let on a lowest tender basis, do you have the rates differential [increase] that Dublin citizens would have to pay for the second cheapest tender on this contract - and are you willing to pay it? because most citizens will be more likely to vote against your bee in the bonnet for a bunch of wooden spoon winners?

Get real Frank. Since when in this country did Irish taxpayers actually pay the tender rate for public transport projects?? What was that overrun on the Luas again?? Tender rate means nothing when our lot are drawing up contracts. Who pays the best backhander to the politicians is probably all that counts. The final cost will not resemble the tender figure much, and the contract will be too weak to enforce the tender figure. Mark my words.
If things are that dodgy? What are we talking "perfected Society" critiques for?
Throughout the Arab World it is whom you are related to that matters - backed by gunfire especially in the PA and Gaza in particular. Why should Palestine be any different from any other Arab state and on their own UN Report on the Arab World they lag horribly against all other regions of the World. There are more rewarding Dulcinea del Tobosa's to support and woo.
