Drug testing in the Indo

The drug testing petition got a mention in the Independent today..

SINN Fein is mightily relieved that its Kerry TD Martin Ferris was finally found to be under the drunk driving limit.But politicians in the Dail who like to skull a few pints, and possibly inhale some of the wacky baccy in the gents, may still be quaking in their boots. There will be no more staggering around Leinster House three sheets to the wind if a campaign group has its way. As the election date approaches, the little-known pressure group, Drug Test Dail Eireann, has stepped up its campaign to introduce mandatory drug and alcohol tests of politicians. The campaign was started after Enda Kenny announced that Fine Gael would drug-test second level kids in schools. A petition being collected at irishelection.com says “what is good enough for children should be good enough for politicians.”
According to a spokesman for the campaign, 32pc of Italian politicians had tested positive for drugs. Itsh a damn dishgrace, Ceann Comhairle!

Considering they never talked to me, I guess by spokesman they mean blogger and by pressure group they mean someone who created a petition online. Anyway thanks for the mention good to see you are reading there in the Independent offices. here is my argument on the matter which the Indo read.New Door step challange: Enda Kenny piss in a cup
