The Party System

The political parties were mentioned at the recent All- Ireland Rally for Life in Dublin and it should be remembered that the party system is “ an institution in the last stages of decay, but one which, since it effects the greatest interests of the nation, is not innocuous; moreover, as it has long  lost any true identity with its past, it is no longer really alive.” from ‘The Party System’

It is necessary to be rid of this decaying institution. “Nothing remains in practical politics but for the practical politician to destroy the Party System as rapidly and as thoroughly as may be”
