John Gormley Appoints Mc Dowell's Wife to the DDDA

category dublin | environment | other press author Friday March 27, 2009 17:41author by Nimby Report this post to the editors

Great isn't it?

The wife of self-declared nimby and opposer of the Poolbeg Incinerator Michael Mc Dowell is to be named the new Chair of the Dublin Docklands Development Authority. She is to be appointed by Minister Gormley who wrings his little hands when faced with Fianna Fail Corruption and Bad Planning.

"My Hands are tied": being his plaintive cry on the M3 Issue

Professor Niamh Brennan, who still holds a paid job down at Prof drumm's HSE is to be the choice of the
Minister for the Environment to head up the money company known as the 'DDDA' in common parlance.
her husband is a nimby who will oppose any attempt to place an Incinerator in his former constituency,
though they are building a road that will go right to his front door up in Monaghan...., (I digress)

The joy of being a professional Nimby is that one gets to pick and choose which campaigns would
ameliorate access to power and such desired things.

This is John's Professional Address wherein one can admire the Ministerial website that does not
make mention of the raft of planning legislation designed to prevent Aarhus and to fastrack planning
and construction, thus lining the pockets of those little developers who put a road through Tara
and have their private banks underwritten by the Dubious Brian Lenihan TD.
