Official: Take a seat. Can I offer you any refreshment?
Candidate: Whatever you’re having will be fine.
Official: Barman? Two more pints of Guinness please. And two Black Bush chasers.
Now then. So what credentials do you bring that are relevant to the appointment to a State board?
Candidate: I can drive.
Official: Excellent. {Ticks box}. That could come in useful.  Anything else?
Candidate:  I’m a good friend of Enda.
Official: Fantastic. There’s a long precedent for mates of Taoisigh being appointed to State boards.
Any other capabilities that would support your selection?
Candidate: Um. Not that I can think of.
Official: Perfect. We may have to go through the motions of interviewing other candidates but I think you can rest assured that you have all the attributes required.
Candidate: Thank you.
Official: Not at all. Have you any other engagements today?
Candidate: Not really. I just need to register at my local Garda station as usual.
Official: Great stuff. A little community service can only enhance your literature at the General Election. Another pint?
Candidate: I’d better not. I have the van.
Official: Ah sure not to worry about that. We can sort out the penalty points. Barman? Same again here…

    A blog about PR, football and politics

    Ronnie has been watching the Irish soccer team since he was a kid and caught two buses in to Dalymount Park. He believes that  a) politics today is mostly about PR and b) Irish and UK politics is far more entertaining than Ireland under Trapattoni or Martin O'Neill.
