It is ridiculous to be honest. What is Kenny afraid of exactly? He is Taoiseach at a time when there is essentially no opposition to the Government, he can pretty much do what he likes. I'm not suggesting that he should go around building monuments to himself in the west of Ireland or anything, but sensible decisions in the interest of balanced regional development need to be taken e.g. faster improvements to the N5 and investment in Knock Airport.
Any sense of bias can simply be responded to as the balancing out of the bias against the region shown by the previous government for 14 years - lets face it, anything that is the opposite of their work will generally amount to an improvement. Noonan didn't give a toss about bias when he saw to the bailing out of Shannon, it is time for Kenny to represent his constituents in a similar fashion.
