The more I hear from the Covid enquiry, the more I think that the PM and the majority of ministers did not have the intellectual tools necessary to understand scientific advice and therefore to be able to weigh it successfully alongside economics, social science etc. In my view this can be traced to educational failure - they weren’t taught or didn’t learn the basics of science alongside their chosen disciplines. This also applies the other way round to scientists of course. Breadth of knowledge is key, as well as specialisation / expertise, and I don’t think our system delivered that in the 80s and 90s when I (and they) went to University - whether it does that today is an open question. I think we need to be producing more polymaths.

Club committee and staff were saddened to hear of the passing of Fintan Walsh. Fintan was a giant in every sense. Acclaimed hurler, footballer and boxer. His dedication to education and his beloved Cumann na mBunscol are legendary. He will be missed. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
