Madam, – The report of Limerick West TD Niall Collins's annoyance at Fianna Fáil members being treated as "entertainment" on RTÉ's The Frontlinetypifies the remove from reality at which the Government is living (Home News, October 20th).

Given the state of our country, and the fact that Mr Collins’s party has been the main culprit in our ruin, he should thank his lucky stars that we have a sense of humour!

As each new day reveals new economic horrors, I find the national smile is beginning to falter. Rather than being out-raged, perhaps he should be ashamed. – Yours, etc,

A chara, – I note that Fianna Fáil is considering boycotting RTÉ's programme The Frontline, (Home News, October 20th).

Is there any way that while they are in the boycotting mood they would boycott the Dáil? Then maybe there might be some work done in the chamber! – Is mise,
