Why is it time for Livable Ireland?

Scandal after scandal has shown that our current political system has become rotten, corroded and rusted. Its a system that was built in the 50's to serve a very different Ireland. We need politicians with courage, conviction, intelligence, imagination, dedication, and strength of character. We certainly don't need someone who has come up through the political ranks. Because of the "pay back" nature of the current political party promotion system, they owe far too much to the power brokers within their parties which have brought them through the ranks. Despite the doom and gloom merchants Livable Ireland truly believes that the glass is half full and not half empty. The passing of power from DeValera to Lemass was the last occasion Ireland found itself at such a political crossroads.
