		<description><![CDATA[Slaintecare is supposed to be the all-party solution to the problems of our healthcare system. But will it turn out to be too complex to actually work? What if, rather than waiting for the HSE to be re-engineered, we found a way to give everybody who needs it access to Ireland&#8217;s existing private healthcare system? [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The biggest, most significant practical consequence of Brexit for Ireland has not really been talked about to date. That is, that for the first time, the London government will not be in a position to continue to underwrite the Northern Ireland economy. Northern Ireland is headed for a massive economic shock. It works like this. [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s interesting to dissect the Eamon Ryan&#8217;s article on the need for a new model for housing. Firstly, there is a sense of desperation, that we need to do something different. Secondly, Eamon and the Green Party recognises that social housing as we understand it is not the whole answer.

		<description><![CDATA[The UK government is finding that it has very little leverage in negotiations with the EU over Brexit. What was Her Majesty&#8217;s Government&#8217;s plan, if there ever was one? In retrospect, I think Teresa May and her cabinet were hoping that Ireland would be their leverage. Europe would accept a &#8216;back door&#8217; for Britain into [&#8230;]]]></description>

Like many things, it has been the subject of many changes, changes which are predominantly positive. These changes and examples of their impact might be summarised under a few [&#8230;]]]></description>

A lot of those expectations arise from the very good work the State Department has done around the world. It is a great pity to see that Tillerson plans to largely dismantle it.

If that were to happen, the first-past-the-post system would not be kind to the two major parties. Brits who opposed Brexit, who are reticent about it, or want a &#8216;soft&#8217; brexit are now being asked [&#8230;]]]></description>
