So those in Dublin city and Sinn Fein are now big Irish Times readers? Or could it perhaps be that you are admitting that your original post twisted the truth trying to make people here think that there was a bias in the poll?

You are now switching your premise to argue that because certain sectors did not agree with the majority of those polled that it invalidates the majority result? Very few polls that cannot be broken down to show that some people did not agree with the overall final result.

So because some voted against the majority view you are now arguing that that somehow it's just 'silly notions' when a poll suggests that a majority of parents in 'Catholic Ireland' want less involvement by the religious in Irish schools?

I think letting the majority decide is called democracy not 'silly notions'.
