Move will see Dublin Rathdown’s TD count go up to four
While he had been aware of the decision from the commission to increase the number of TDs from 160 to 174 he had not heard it had also decided to move him and his fellow voters to a completely different constituency.
“It is a big deal really,” he said pointing to the positive bond he has had over four decades in business with his local TDs of all persuasions from centre right to centre left. The constituency shake-up was news to Elisabeth Guinness of the Guinness Gallery too. “I’m only just hearing about, it,” she said. “I think if we are being moved from one constituency to another, it would have been nice if there was a meeting with us before any decision was made.”
