‘People will eventually accept water charges,’ the Tanaiste says

There is no shortage of obstinacy, or indeed, shortsightedness, amongst senior Government officials, one must give them credit for that.

Joan Burton has today reassured herself by saying that the people of Ireland will eventually ‘accept’ water charges.

Her misguided comments were in response to Saturday’s mass demonstration, which saw tens of thousands of people march down the capital’s streets in defiance of the charges.

The Tánaiste added that while she accepts that many people still object to charges for water on a point of principle, she believes people will accept them in the end.
