On Wednesday, Taoiseach Enda Kenny walked the streets of Dublin’s north inner city.
The small community, within spitting distance of the IFSC and the ‘Silicon Docks’, has endured more than any should during the recent drug-gang feuding.
Mr Kenny’s goal is admirable: Improve the standard of life there and mitigate the damage done by violence and addiction. He spoke of “economic and social regeneration”.
Some €1.6m will be spent in and around Sherriff St, developing facilities and tidying up the urban landscape.
When ranged against the financial and criminal fire-power of the Kinahan gang, €1.6m is not much. Let’s be blunt. Dublin’s inner city will not be transformed on that budget.
