Minor correction & constitutional explation added.

Is it really necessary to have all the stuff from the CIA World Factbook at the bottom of page - most/all of it is covered in more detail on other pages. Stuff like the flag description and picture of the flag should definited be deleted - there is already a picture of the flag on the main ROI page and the Flag of Ireland page.

[edit] Constitution

Why remove the reference to the 1972 amendment, as it was a good example?

Sorry I should have explained; my problem was these sections are intended to be short summaries so the sentence put in made it look like the 1972 amendment was the most important that ever happened. I've added in a new sentence about constitutional amendments that i think is better. Iota 16:47, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Progressive Democrats

Just one question about the statement:

The right is represented by the Progressive Democrats who, while liberal on economic policy, are left-wing on social matters.

Based on that statement i would think their more of a part on the left then on the right. I know their liberal on the econ but aren't they more center-right in social matters, they follow closely with the FF. --User:Boothy443 | comhrÚ 03:12, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
