Old people protest

I sympathise with their plight.

But by the same token I have to ask myself three questions, based in part on instinct and in part on statistical probability.

1. How many of the old people protesting voted Fianna Fail?

2. How many of the old people protesting have always voted Fianna Fail?

3. How many of the old people protesting will vote Fianna Fail in the next election?

Crazily, I suspect most of them.

By the way my favourite protester sign read:

No country for old men, or women.
