I don’t know why we have to have more TDs. In other countries, members of Parliament have a bigger electorate to deal with. We should have less TDs as most of them are double jobbers and don’t live in the real world.Two masters cannot be served at the same time. Any TD from his local town will ensure that area will be looked after so he can keep getting elected and not bother about any other area. I never had faith in any TDs, when it’s apparent that they are looking after themselves. With many of them retiring at a young age and getting a nice pension, they are a drain on the electorate of this country, while castigating senior citizens who have worked hard all their lives.
