After all, exactly the same thing <em>ought</em> to have been done when eircom was privatised, and I remember ranting on about how the privatisation would only end in tears. So, as you can guess, I too am completely behind the Greens on this one. If the government don't transfer ownership of the grid over to Eirgrid, we'll just end up with yet another eircom.
