Sir, – The anti-poster people have started their objections to pictures and slogans being put up during the forthcoming local and European election campaigns.
We should be excited and positive about having an opportunity to participate and be informed of all those people who are brave enough to seek a mandate.
Not everyone can use social platforms to discover policies or who the candidates are. Consider those living in countries who are denied participation in open elections.
The posters, leaflets, letters canvassing, public meetings, and television and radio debates all add to the spectacle, tension and excitement of the right to pick our representatives.
Cannes 2025: An emotional screening of My Mom Jayne, and Kristen Stewart’s ‘big Cannes energy’
Dr Muiris Houston: Lifestyle changes to reduce your risk of stroke, dementia and late-life depression
‘I recently bought a sofa worth about €10,000 new for €380 on Done Deal’
Derry’s shirt factories: ‘You can still see the imprints of the factory girls’ feet on the concrete stairs’
It makes the four-week campaign a festival of expression.
Bring on the posters. – Yours, etc,
THOMAS MORRIS GORMALLY,
Rathangan,
Co Kildare.
